One of the things we bloggers have going for us is an audience that [...] What else is there to say? I just don’t have the words right now. var addthis_language = ‘en’;var addthis_options = ‘email, favorites, twitter, digg, delicious, myspace, google, facebook, reddit, live, more’; Elites have had no problem coming on my show telling me how Terri Schiavo has no quality of life so she would be better off dead. Certainly the same holds true of starving children in Africa who are abused, raped, infected, and dying. Using elites’ logic, feeding these children only prolong their pain. Maybe Elton John [...] On Friday it will be two weeks since Terri’s feeding tube was removed. In that time, I have seen the true wretches of society bubble up in the cesspool. Oh sure there are legal issues surrounding the case and those are worth discussing because the outcome of this case, one way or the other, will [...] 11th Circuit Court Rejects Schiavo Appeal By RON WORD, Associated Press Writer PINELLAS PARK, Fla. – With time running out for Terri Schiavo, a federal appeals court Wednesday rejected her parents’ latest attempt to get the brain-damaged woman’s feeding tube reconnected.

The CIA outsources torture—in violation of American and international law—in the name of the freedoms we are fighting to protect against terrorism. And we have watched as this woman, whose only crime is that she is disabled, is tortured to death by judges, all the way to [...] Wis. Professor to Test Stun Guns on Pigs 41 minutes ago Add to My Yahoo! Science – AP By RYAN J. FOLEY, Associated Press Writer MADISON, Wis. – A professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison plans to study whether stun guns alone can kill pigs — or whether other medical factors must be at play — as part of [...] When did food and water become medical treatment? Think about it… The Schindlers are barred from even swabbing Terri’s lips with a cotton swab if it has any kind of water on it. They even had a debate this weekend over whether or not to allow Terri to receive Holy Communion on Easter Sunday. The [...] The real men and women made decisions. For all you tools worried about the Constitution and how saving a life isn’t constitutional, but anal sex is, here’s a lesson: Article. III.

Everyone – from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals to the U.S. Department of Agriculture – seems to weigh in with opinions on trimming Maggie the elephant’s waistline or suggestions for putting extra energy in her heavy step. But soon [...] Of course, there are differences between the Gonzalez and Schiavo cases. But clearly many of the people who approved of dramatic federal intervention to return Elian to Cuba took a completely different tack when it came to the argument over saving Terri Schiavo. Rep. Frank makes a compelling argument that Congress took an extraordinary step [...] I must have said this about a thousand times, and now I’m saying it again.

Witnesseth: Twisted Irony I find twisted irony in that as a society, apparently, we are willing to let [...] After Defeats, Schiavo Parents Tell Supporters to Go Home PINELLAS PARK, Fla. (Reuters) – Terri Schiavo’s parents suffered more court defeats on Saturday, leaving them with dwindling hopes as their brain-damaged daughter passed her eighth day without food and edged toward death.

The Wide Awakes, while way out there on the right side of the spectrum, have come up with some astonishingly chilling information regarding Terri’s “collapse.” Read: Dr. George McClane is the Director of the Forensic Medical Unit (FMU) at the city of San Diego Department of [...] One week later, I’ve learned a lot; not just about the Terri Schiavo case, but about people. I’ve been pigeonholed more times than I’d like to even discuss here, by people who should know better.
