Overkilling Schiavo?

(link inserted into title)

Rachel Marsden has an interesting spin on the continuing saga of Terri Schiavo.

(Quick aside,..those from Philly will get this: If the MSM doesn't stop with this story, Pat's Steaks are going to start using it in their cheesesteaks very soon)


The private dispute between members of the Schiavo family over the life of their severely brain-damaged daughter/wife, Terri, should never have become the media circus that it did. Someone should have hired Michael Schiavo’s anti-food tube lawyer to shut down all the greasy spoons within a 20 mile radius that were fuelling the reflex-driven, brain-dead reporters covering the case.

Conservatives can’t have it both ways: Either they value the institution of marriage, or they don’t. On her wedding day, Terri Schiavo’s father walked her down the aisle and gave her away to Michael Schiavo. That’s supposed to actually mean something. And as her husband, he honored his vow to be by her side until the end.

There are no villains here, just a lot of shortsighted idiots who, thankfully, never got their way. Now may this whole fiasco just finally rest in peace.

That goes for you, too, Governor Bush!
