Sciavo - Couldn't we figure this out while she was "alive"?

What than was it for? It would seem that lying is genetic.

The suit will be against the medicos who did the autopsy. Grounds: Slander.

It would be more accurate to say, "cause her to live rather than let her die"-- since she had to have medical intervention to live, and on her own could only die.

Details, please. And a link if possible.

Can't seem to come up with one from google.

Exactly. Is this statement of facts or simply your interpretation Noddy.

Actually, I wasnt doubting Noddy's post. I was just looking for a link to the story and could not find it. Sometimes these things are hard to find, because they might be in news stories primarily about something else, with only a brief mention in the middle of the article.

I think someone else earlier mentioned something of a lawsuit being filed by Jeb Bush related to this.

It is getting to the point where the entire Schiavo issue would be hilarious, if it weren't so preposterous. I am totally disgusted with Jeb Bush, who is beating this dead horse in order to garner as much political "hay" as he can from the religious right.

He is using his office to conduct a vendetta against Michael Schiavo, who after all, had been vindicated by Terri's autopsy.

Jeb dear, isn't there enough wrong with Florida (like the schools) that you can't find a better place to spend tax money????

Jeb Bush is a pimp of the lowest form. Someone ought to put a bullet in his ass before 2008.

Neither actively growing Bushes really cares about how they spend tax money other than not collecting it from the very rich while steathily screwing the middle class. Why shouldn't Schaivo be just another rail Jeb can ride into office on? It's allright to kill thousands of innocent people in order to bring a dubious democracy to the Middle East but when a private and legal euthenasia takes place it's the end of the world.

ThinkFactory, Kelticwizard--

I'm guilty of spreading plausible but untrue rumors--forgive me. As far as I know there will not be a law suit for slander filed against the Medical Examiner's office.

I was being irresponsibly ironic.

this whole thing is disgraceful.

jeb bush needs to shut the F%$ up and maybe spend a little more time on improving the child services down there so that maybe they'll quit losing kids. i've always given him credit for being more intelligent than dubya, but nope.

do ya think jeb spends this much time worrying about the illegal aliens hitting the beach ? how about terrorism ? schools ? unemployment ? does is moral imperative to wave his arms around proclaiming the word leave anytime at all for him to actually do any of the work that that he was put in office to do ?

it's a good thing that michael shiavo had terri cremated. randall terry would be down there dragging her decaying corpse around and shoving it in people's faces while blathering his insane shite, like he did with those fetuses.

i'm really, really pissed about this stuff. it's all typical of how the right wing extreme and it's partners in crime, religious zealots do things these days.

nothing is ever settled. there is never a final decision. everybody but themselves is called a liar and a killer. they gum up the works of local state and national government with their holy rollin' doo-da parades and it's stop the g.d. presses, cause jesus is talkin' here !

BALONEY.

and they wonder why people attack "people of faith" . because "people of faith" have more to do with their fellow religio-terrorists, the islamists, than they do with plain old god fearin' folks.

Noddy - No blood no foul. I was not upset - but it seemed very much credible. It scares me that ironicle is credible to me.

TF

Same here, Noddy. In the Schiavo case, satire is almost impossible because the absurd was happening in front of our eyes daily.

Gentlemen--

May we all work to make our topsy-turvy world safe for irony.

Nobody seems to see the contradiction of president Bush when he put so much effort into saving one brain-defected woman, but doesn't do anything for all the living children of this country that lives without health insurance. There are so many examples like this one, it amazes me that more people are blind to it.
