Anyone notice...

...I keep hearing these media guys talk about "thank you to the spokeman of Terri Schiavo's family for speaking with us", and they are there there to hear remarks from the family, but no one is giving the husband much air time at all...or do I just have bad timing, cuz I have yet to see the guy in the last week or so.

1. I saw him on TV today

He was composed and furious. He did good.

5. Hey, OLL, I guess the law is dead, isn't it?

And no one seems much to care. Depressing.

10. It's not dead

It's being badly assaulted, but I still believe - I really do - that there is a Federal judge who is going to do the right thing.

I really believe in the power and majesty of our laws, and that we will continue to be a nation of laws.

I may be a fool. I hope I'm not.

12. You seem to have more hope then me

I still have some awful feeling the Bush administration will try something to pass this ridiculous bill. :\ Maybe pay a judge or promise them something. I don't know. You have more hope then I do.

Supreme Court as well? Didn't they refuse to hear this and toss it back to the state? And wouldn't they tend to bolster the state's position?

3. I'm sure you're right. I have not been watching at all. However,

I did see about 15 min of Meet the Press Today. These guys and gals are working extra hard so the word must be out -- support * and the Republicans or your're fired. Just when I think the media can't bend over an inch more, they amaze me. I guess that's why they call it a Media side show.

...I mean it isnt just Mr Schiavo's absence that is weird, it is how they are suddely reporting it. A few days ago,you had Ron Reagan and that neocon he has as a counterpart AGREEING that congress shouldn't meddle...I have a feeling if they were on now, they would have the girl reprogrammed to get back on message.
Plus there seems to be this sentiment of "save terri" that the media has picked up. Very scary.
Jesus...Woodruff is giving loaded questions at Rep Wasserman Schultz, but my girl is handiling herself brilliantly.

9. wow, its pretty good too...

recording it...puts a very clear record of the truth...even shows a CAT scan (which one of the republican liars said "she hasnt even had a cat scan or mri"...BS!! Proof on Larry King...THEN, Larry says HE showed the image to doctor friends, everyone of which said THAT IS A BRAIN DEAD PERSON! LOL! Damn...this thing wont go past the Federal Court and the repugnants will look like FOOLS, especially with 87% of Americans thinking they've stepped over the line.

13. Awesome

I'm glad Mr. King is talking about this. Sometimes he does have good shows and this is one of them. I'm so glad he's giving Mr. Schiavo a chance and he's siding with him with this. I hope this makes the republican party even less popular than what it is now and every single person who voted for this in the future as well. It shows they are willing to put aside the law of our lands for their own selfish reasons.

11. Funny

That Terri has Schavio's last name but yet obviously he's the "scumbag" of the family and thus doesn't deserve to tell his side of the story. I'm so disgusted with this whole thing. Why do they call her Schiavo and not let the husband have any time?
