Bizarre interview with Terri Schiavo's brother
Terri Schiavo's brother is in New Zealand, he was being interviewed on Tv here, he stood by his claim that she was totally interacting with her family.

He then told the interviewer that if the feeding tube wasn't removed, she could be conducting this interview.

The reporter who interviewed him just laughed and asked him if he was serious , her brother said he was serious and that she would be able to conduct an interview.

The reporter then asked him, about a case here, when a woman was arrested for helping her terminally ill mother die.

Terri's brother said, under no circumstances should anyone take a life, no one has the right.

1. Under no circumstances, eh?
Well, I wonder how he feels about Iraq and Shrub then?

Sounds like he's living in the land of delusion - he's gone beyond denial.

2. She May Be Dead, But The Profiteering Lives On
I stopped having any sympathy for those ghoulish jackals when they started exploiting her for money. I usually don't believe in hell ... but I can make an exception for them.

3. How disgusting that he would dishonor her in such a manner.
I tried very hard to "walk a mile" in Terri's family's shoes, when the Schiavo case was current, but for her brother to make such an absurd statement, this long after her death, is contemptible.

5. Hmm, she had no spinal cord injuries...
... so why didn't she walk out to the hundreds of TV crews parked out in front of the nursing home and give that interview?
