this Terri thing sure reminds me of Elian Gonzales
Edited on Thu Mar-24-05 05:04 PM by mitchtv
not the circumstances, but the behavior of the respective families. The inablity to respect the law, that republican thing that says the law is for everyone else but me. Is it the water or the fumes of all the dead coral reefs?
oh yeah instead of Gloria Estevan we have Patricia Heaton.

1. Elian 2000, Terri 2005
I have obtained an advance copy of Weekend at Bernie's Part 4 starring Tom DeLay & Bill Frist:

3. Me too...it's all part of a pattern:

http://www.plaidder.com/crackpot.htm#elian

The basic mechanism here is the right wing using someone 'innocent' and unimpeachable who also CANNOT SPEAK FOR HERSELF--that's very important, otherwise she might argue with them--in order to articulate their agenda. We're not doing this for ourselves! Oh no! We're only doing it for Terri! All for Terri! We're not destroying the rule of law in this country and shredding the constitution because that will increase our power and allow us to achieve theocracy! No! Oh no! THis is all about Terri! What, you say you disagree with us? Why do you hate Terri?

Or the unborn, or Elian, or the troops, or whatever...

Sigh,

The Plaid Adder

5. The "we care" illusion
Holy, holy, holy, if they care so much for those who can't speak or vote, how much more do they care about ME???

Zero, but who's really counting.

7. I believe Schaivo is about to enter the mystical dolphin phase

Expect the confluence of Terri "spirit" sightings with the Easter holiday. Perhaps Mama Schindler will press a cloth to Terri's face, and an image will mysteriously appear. If so, expect dishtowels with the image on ebay.

These bozos are doing everything but mortifying their flesh in order to be on teevee and it's quite creepy

8. "Us" vs "Them"
"Us", meaning good murikans that beleive in Jeezus and the culture of life and love GWB, who was sent to us from God...and "Them", all those who oppose the fundie/conservative/bu$h-loving, movement.

9. Not as entertaining as some of Elian's saga
I mean, come on: Marielysies (sic). She ROCKED. Especially when she was showing the "trashed" house after the Feds came in, including the door off the hinges. You know, the door that in their OWN photos, was on the hinges??? And her shrieking mental breakdowns on TV. Classic. <sigh> The good old days...

Why the hell didn't any of those people go to jail? If they were black or Mexican, they wouldn't see the light of day for 20 years...

And Heaton does not have Gloria Estefan;s RW creds. Come on, was Heaton's dad a Batista stooge?

11. you are so right
Edited on Thu Mar-24-05 10:06 PM by mitchtv
I remember when Bill Maher couldn't say her name. He called her Mayonaise. Heaton, yeah, only the honorary chair of "Feminists for life". Small beans when you think of the wastes in the Elian affair. They even prevailed on Andy Garcia to embarrass himself for the nation.
