May I never post about the Schiavo case again...

Now that Robert Schindler--the father of Terri Schiavo--is under the sway of Randall Terry (the anti-abortion terrorist, one of whose acolytes and deputies was the abortion-doc killer James Kopp), his rhetoric has increased in vehemence against letting a human vegetable die in peace.

But it wasn't always that way. The Guardian reported back in 2003 that Schiavo's father turned off the life support systems on his very own mother

[...]

So, Tom Delay agreed to the snuffing of his vegetable father, and Schiavo's father gave his mother release from suffering when (unlike Terri) her brain still worked but her kidneys failed. We, my friends, are awash in religious hypocrisy...

In oh so many more ways.

....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.

Update :

Ralph Nader has joined the Christers in opposing the removal of Terri Schiavo's feeding tube--and has linked up with a right-winger with unsavory connections to do it.

The Rev. Jesse Jackson, who described the court decision to remove Terri Schiavo's feeding tube as "cruel and crude," prayed with the ailing woman's parents Tuesday as she survived without food and water for the 12th day.
