Schiavo Case Unexpectedly Unites Americans

Yahoo! News - Schiavo Case Unexpectedly Unites Americans

“The Terri Schiavo case has had the unexpected effect of uniting most Americans, whether Republicans or Democrats, around a consensus that the government should stay out of families’ life and death decisions.”

Thank goodness - the headline had me ready to start askin’ questions (like who the hell is “most Americans”?) but then I read the first paragraph (quoted above) and felt better.

Yeah, I’m biased. But I’m not a paid journalist (at least not here ;) ) and so it’s okay.

Yahoo! News - List of Schiavo Donors To Be Sold

Okay, so who’s gonna make money on this?

We already know it’s not Michael Schiavo - the money he and Terri won in the lawsuit has been spent on her health care and legal expenses to fulfill her wishes.

Can you believe the nerve? How would you feel if you’d donated a few bucks to the Schindlers’ cause, only to find out that you would be added to a zillion “please call and irritate the shit out of me… at dinnertime, preferrably” lists?! Lordy, lordy.
