Holy crap. Isn't that almost ran Alan Keyes website?

That'd be an rebuttal almost worth writing. Naaaaa.

He posts on a conservative website (pundit?) so if you can get him to go 1-800-GO-GUARD -- might he be -- gasp -- #1 FOR THE HALL???!!!

It's a stretch, I know. But I check here every day for that first name. Hope springs eternal.

I believe in compromise, and it's this: if the parents want to try to improve her condition via daily, diligent therapy, at their expense, why not let them?

I don't take the word of doctors or experts on *either* side as final -- that's the crux of my problem with this case, and I'm a fierce independent.

Look at motive and opportunity: what ill motive could the parents have for at least trying to help their daughter? And I do NOT believe Michael's goal is money, not at all...but he does strike me as a very bad, ugly individual, spiteful and calculating to the core. Experts be damned. Why is handing her over to the care of her parents so wrong? What harm would be done by him petitioning the courts to grant them a conditional authority, to be reviewed in 1-2 years' time? At which point it could be revisited by the courts? He seems never to have been open to this option of therapy at the hands of others. I think he's hiding something. Maybe I'm wrong. Trolls piss off now.

OTB, that's interesting. A man spends seven years and ALL THE MONEY HE WAS GIVEN trying to bring his wife back from a vegetative state. Then, after everything that was tried, including putting electrodes in her head so they could give her electric stimulation from the inside, he comes to the conclusion that nothing will work. He petitions the courts to decide on her behalf because he believes that she would not want this state to be her permanent condition. He proceeds according to the law, gives no nasty interview, sends out no fundraisers, does not surround himself with radical would-be murderers, does not sell access to donors.
Yes, he's a bad, ugly individual. Which seems to translate: he's not the kind of christian I like.

Some of those names seemed familiar...

They seem to be mainly concerned with keeping our borders safe (and we know what that is code for) and yes! GUNS, GUNS, GUNS!! If only everyone owned 2 or 26 guns we’d be a safer country.

Political Vanguard
http://www.politicalvanguard.com/

Strange site. Superficially seems like just another Level III winger site. Guest Commentary by Michael Barone? Hmmmmm They have a section “Shadowing Hillary” and an “Arnold Watch” where they report somewhat accurately on der Gropinator’s anti-union, anti-worker, anti-liberal legislative plans for the Great Bear Republic, however, of course, they discuss it in a very positive and adulatory tone.

*******************************

Contra Coaster Times, Piedmonter and Montclarion are all from the same printing press:
http://ccn.pursuedbybear.com/advert/hills_montclarion.php

” The Montclarion is published twice weekly, on Tuesday and Friday. The Piedmonter is published weekly on Friday. Both are distributed in neighborhoods with a median household income of $70,000 or more.

Ya know those little papers in plastic bags that some doofus throws on your driveway once or twice a week that you run over 4 or 5 times with your car and then curse when the sprinklers wet the thing and you finally get around to picking up the soggy, dripping mess and tossing it in the trashcan, while avoiding the drips that could stain yer pants? Well, at least they’re free, and worth every penny you pay for them.

Reality Check

Another wing of the winger noise machine. Random sample articles: “The Judicial fight against God and the people” “The ACLU vs America” “It’s time Hollywood gave up its love affair with Communism” “Unions lack the moral credibility to challenge Social Security reform”; and, of course, “Terri Schiavo: Judicial Murder”

OH-kay..... I think we see the picture, but it's out of focus.

Sounds like a b-list actor/columnist who would benefit from McCartheyism... wonder how much Money they paid him if Amrstrong Williams got six figures?

This link is not work-safe, quite graphic. Perhaps his suit and tied, blonde hair blue eyed punditry should become a reporter embed.

Iraq's going so well that he should be there with his 101st keyboard certification.

No no, Mr Murder. 101st keyboarders don't ACTUALLY GO TO Iraq to cover the war. That might mean they'll actually have to experience the effects of a bonafide WAR ZONE.

Last I heard, 101st fighting keyboarder certifications are only given, if you promise to stay in the states, are gay, and pretend to be a journalist.

Oh yeah, and only if you act hard core like if you met a Marine or a Ranger, or maybe watched a movie or something like that.
