CNN dragging out "miracle recovery" stories, now
Boy in PVS state, multiple brain surgeries, no hope of recovery...

But now, with "extensive thearpy" he is right as rain (well, he can eat and interact with family and so forth).

No mention of the condition of his cerebral cortex, of course.

:puke:

5. If he came back from a liquid brain filled with spinal fluid then they
can compare. Otherwise shut the fuck up CNN and FAUX...

2. Show me someone who recovered
from a liquefied brain, and I'll give it a second thought.

4. it is interesting that the media is on the bandwagon
since it is clear that the public overwhelmingly disapproves of what is happening. But I guess they have to try to pimp as much as possible for W and company.

7. One thing you can say for them...
They're consistant.

Or just persistant.

Well, they are just delivering a service already paid for.

6. CNN needs to die
It's the "left wing" propaganda arm of the Right wing.

10. CNN is a fucking disgrace
Candy Crowley just sat there while Pat Robertson called Michael Schiavo a murderer.

11. CNN is worse than FOX right now....they make me sick....
Last night I watched Larry King and his Pat Boone moral values and people who had recovered from various conditions (of course, not one single one of them recovered from a "Persistent Vegetative State"...

Then there was Nancy Grace last night talking to one of the so-called "spiritual advisor" who said that Michael Schiavo would be remembered with the likes of Scott Petersen and OJ Simpson (then Nancy Grace chimed in saying "don't forget to add Robert Blake to that mix)....

Needless to say, the media has been part of this charade and its disgusting....talk about deliberate mis-information and propaganda to the US Public...CNN, FOX... :grr:

15. Good! Remove the
feeding tube like the rule of law says and we'll see if there is a miracle.

If they are so big on praying then pray.

18. Although I have to admit
The lawyer, Weintraub, they've had on twice now, is great. She's ripping them a new one.

And she's alone, no "counter argument".
