Still Waiting
Dakota Voice ^ | 1/29/2007 | Carrie K. Hutchens

Posted on 02/02/2007 3:49:53 AM PST by 8mmMauser

I don't know about anyone else, but I am still waiting for Michael Schiavo to make a correction on his blog about what "actually" took place in Colorado when he went there (to the debate) to supposedly ask Congresswoman Musgrave one question and she and her staff supposedly tried to have him removed. He called it, "My unreal night in Colorado - with radio link" (Thu Oct 26, 2006 at 08:05:14 PM PST). I'll say (from what I read) that it was his "unreal night".

As I said before in "Standing up and Admitting a Mistake: Not Schiavo's Style?",  if four uniformed officers were around my seat, I would have some idea of what was going on. I certainly wouldn't be sitting in "duh mode" to only be told later of what took place right there around me, as Michael suggests he was. If Michael's account is realistic -- his response and reaction is not. Nor is his response appropriate now that he has "learned" what he was "allegedly told" is not what took place. One would think if he can't get the words out that he was mistaken, he could at least have removed the inaccurate entry from his blog.

He has done neither.

I'm also still waiting to read about, "Also, maybe tomorrow I'll post about my election-eve rally with Bill Clinton in Florida." (A real election impact by Michael Schiavo, Thu Nov 09, 2006 at 10:40:34 AM PST).  Indeed, I would love to read that story by Michael, since I read it was not possible. Not if he was implying it was the Bill Clinton that is the former President of the United States. Will be interesting to see what he says about that if he ever does.

If Michael couldn't get it straight what happened at the Musgrave debate or even if he spent election-eve with former President Bill Clinton -- do you suppose he might have gotten Terri Schiavo's wishes mixed-up as well? (He does claim to have a bad memory from what I read.) Makes one wonder. At least makes me wonder. Whatever...

I'm still waiting for the corrections if not the explanations!

Lots of similarities with Michael Schiavo. Both were self-centered and extremely manipulative, neither has an ounce of conscience, both killed without pity. Peterson was the more skillful planner, Schiavo is much the meaner person.

Peterson at least claimed innocence. Schiavo killed his wife as the entire world watched and then gloated about it.

Yes, and that's one factor the jury strongly held against him in choosing the death penalty. He knew Laci's fate but let her family suffer for four months before the bodies were found.

I wonder if he will do like OJ and try to write an "if I did it" book. Then all of the NYT bestseller list devotees will applaud while leftists like Norman Mailer and Gore Vidal decry capital punishment.

The media is sympathetic to Anna Nicole? Bah!

She let them use and abuse her while she was alive. I had the misfortune of watching Geraldo Rivera's take on her life on FNC, last weekend. My bf and I agreed that he should the one who should be buried, LOL!

I really don't see a link between Terri and Anna Nicole. Anna's son died soon after she gave birth, from a cocktail of drugs, then Anna dies, perhaps from the same cause?

One thing I know, no one likes that lawyer who glommed onto her.

Nope, we shouldn't compare what happened to Terri, with how Anna Nicole died. Terri lived a rather normal life. Thankfully, she had no children to witness her end days.

Shallow, shallow are the liberal technicians who labor so to eliminate the weak and the disabled. Their idea of heaven is pure selfishness. But life is empty without challenge and we learn nothing without suffering and adversity. The liberals think they are creating perfect beings, but will succeed only in populating the world with helpless spoiled brats.

>> What they [scientists engaged in eugenics] don’t understand is that those who need our loving care and compassion are not merely burdens. They are here, as part of God’s great design, to force us to focus on something more than ourselves, to make us better human beings than we would be without them. They are here to help us get to heaven.

Thank you, T'wit for finding that story. I am repeating it and pinging it for emphasis. Our paths may have crossed with that of Brian, although I cannot remember. Chances are good we had met him. Anyway, I would like to think so.

Imagine a world where disease had been conquered by science, where babies were born without birth defects, where there were no severely handicapped or brain-damaged people, where everyone was productive, and only the very young and the very old needed care. Wouldn’t that be wonderful?

Or would it? I’m inclined to think that wouldn’t be such a wonderful world. For one thing it wouldn’t have included my brother Brian.

Brian was born brain-damaged in 1946, a beautiful little boy who appeared to be no different than any other infant. The first evidence that there might be something wrong with Brian was his failure to communicate with us through speech. He could show you what he wanted, cry, yell, but not verbalize.

When he was five years old he began having terrible seizures. For the next 15 years or more, in search of a cure for their little boy, my parents took him to specialists up and down the east coast. From the specialists they received a variety of diagnoses – autism, cerebral palsy, idiocy – but no help. Most recommended committing him to an institution, which in those days usually meant a short and unhappy life for the institutionalized. To their eternal credit, my parents refused to do that.

Brian died peacefully seven years ago, at the age of 53, at home in the loving care of his younger sister. His job was done. Brian’s entire life had been spent in the care of his family, which is probably why he lived as long as he did. (We were told that most people in his condition don’t live that long.) Brian’s job, his purpose in life, was to make everyone who cared for him better than they would have been without him.

Dreams and fantasies of liberals and other far leftists who would find paradise in a defeated America where a phoenix decomposes into ashes...

While the nation may not be on the leftist trajectory some have credited with swaying those elections, it is clearly fed up with right-wing ideologues. Most of the country rejects the right’s absolutist positions on abortion, sexual-abstinence education, stem-cell research, and gun control — much as they rejected the Republican Congress’s attempt to hijack Terri Schiavo’s death for ideology, and President Bush’s reckless perpetuation and escalation of the disastrous Iraq War.

The GOP lurches rightward

I agree, Bah indeed. They draw the analogy nevertheless. Here is what they are saying today. If there is any similarity, I see it in the crumb bum men in the center of each and squirming off the hooks, including O.J. and Howard K. Sperm and our own Mikey.

In the mid nineties when the O. J. Simpson trial was in full swing, people tuned in to watch what was then labelled as the trial of the century. A few years ago when Terry Schiavo passed away and her parents and husband, Mr. Schiavo, debated over her burial, again people tuned in to watch it unfold.

And a few days ago when the Anna Nicole Smith hearing began, again, people tuned in to watch that unfold. All three cases have one striking similarity. Family. It’s that reason we are all here, and the reason emotions tend to run high when a loved one passes away or is taken away via death.

Why People Are Tuning In To The Anna Nicole Smith Hearing. One Word: Family.

Where do they come up with this crap?! How does trying to keep somebody from being murdered translate into "hijacking" their death? The only reason that any significant portion of the public supported Terri's murder was because they had been LIED TO BY A MURDERING HUSBAND, HIS BLOODTHIRSTY LAWYER AND A COMPLICIT MEDIA.

Now we can suppose the wire coat hangers are gone and the killers have gone wireless...

Thread from wagglebee

NEW YORK, February 21, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) - America's largest abortion provider Planned Parenthood is launching a wireless phone business. Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA), according to its 2004-2005 annual report, showed a record income of $882 million dollars and a profit of $63 million.

The new service, Planned Parenthood Wireless, will provide 10% of revenues generated directly to PPFA. The wireless company facilitating this venture is called Working Assets. It also worked with Planned Parenthood for the defeat of the South Dakota abortion ban.

And therin lies their power, their work as a team, not to forget the judicial and happily cooperating officials and an LE bunch that happened to be looking the other way. The team is still out there.

When I think of my if-onlys I wish we could see more stories of the parents who see their children as the treasures they are regardless of the wrapper. Some, perhaps many more than we realize, would open their eyes in surprise at events like Brian's life, they just hadn't noticed.

If only...

I am always so grateful to the liberals for analyzing Republican positions and telling us why we should give up and be liberals. In their eyes, when we act on principle, we inevitably doom the whole party for the next generation at least.

They are so hooked on kissing the pharaoh's toes, it never occurs to them that doing the right thing is more important than winning elections. Neither does it cross their mind that Pharaoh is that little guy behind the curtain manning the smoke machine and loudspeakers.

Let conservatives never forget that politics rarely solves anything, and then only by undoing some obnoxious socialist intrusion. We owe nothing to commissars, bureaucrats and politicians. It is free people in a free market who get things done.

Another Lenten season is upon us, remembering those dark days foist upon us two years ago as a right to life was battered. May this Archbishop's wishes be met (except maybe for ...."and yes, even the condemned criminal." I would pray for his soul but not for his life.)

Thread by wagglebee

DENVER, February 21, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Archbishop Charles Chaput of Denver, Colorado commenced the Lenten season today, Ash Wednesday, by issuing a message to his diocese reminding the faithful “As we offer our prayers to God this Lent, let’s ask Him to restore us as a culture of life — a culture committed to the sanctity of every life, from the unborn child to the mentally disabled, the infirm and the elderly, and yes, even the condemned criminal.”

Hey, listen, Anna Nicole is important. I didn't use to think so, mainly because I had no idea who she was. I still don't. But now it turns out she had so much money that I must have slept with her. I guess we all slept with her on that romantic, moonlit, unforgettable night when she came into season. What a scene!

I just read from a blogger that "she striped for a living" once. Does that mean she whipped people or that she wore a zebra suit?

It is a terrible comparison, I know, even putting Anna Nichole and Terri in the same paragraph, but the judges! That is a different story, one that begs comparisons. Here we have Judge Seidlin, probate judge on the right side of the Florida coast and just to the left side we have probate judge George Greer. Imagining Greer in the Seidlin role causes brain cramps.

Kent Shocknek puts this on his blog, mentioning Ito, but just imagine cutting and pasting Greer into that courtroom.

.......................................

How about that Florida judge deciding where Anna Nicole Smith should be buried? As Ol' Bob Hope woulda said: "Isn't he somethin'?"

Larry Seidlin says things like "This body belongs to me" (when he's not referring to Smith's body as 'that baby'). He's bald and tan like Doctor Phil, and has a last name, like Judge Judy. Court-watchers ask if he's auditioning for his own show.

The longer he stalls the proceedings, the better we can "get to know him." Because, --and here's a good quote-- "If you have a camera in the courtroom, there's no filtering." Now who said that? Oh, yea, Judge Lance Ito, of O-J Simpson murder-trial fame.

Maybe Ito could coach Seidlin. Trouble is, he wouldn't. Ever since Simpson, Ito has refuesed to comment. The one guy from that trial, who found his way back to dignity. And all it took was silence.

There's a lesson there, but in the current Anna Nicole circus, probably not a lesson that'd appeal to the ringmaster. --Or Top Clown.

Anna Nicole, and Judge Lance Ito
