Intellectually, she knows the “people out front were extremists,” but she cannot reconcile how self-professed Christians—many wearing robes—could have been so “degrading, hurtful . . . misguided.”
Because any "person of faith" can become an extremist, given the right physcological stimulus...

I have a sneaking suspition that this just might blow up in Jebby's face. All but the truly rabid have grown tired of it, and those, except Jeb, have gone skanking off to the next, hysterical cause.
quote:
The experts said random eye motion and facial expressions were symptoms that commonly fool loved ones. And now, we know for sure she saw nothing.
So when Gov. Jeb uttered his first after-the-autopsy words, he might have said, in a healing-the-rift sort of way, that those who had shared his concerns about Terri Schiavo could now be assured that they had not failed her. She had been beyond human help. The feeding tube had done her no good and only maintained a cruel illusion.
Instead, what Jeb said was shocking: He urged the state attorney in Pinellas to investigate Michael Schiavo. So, of course, that will now happen.
Why the heck would Jeb do that?
Surely he knows Terri Schiavo's parents never had reason to think she had been abused. The autopsy found no evidence whatsoever that she had ever been abused, or that her collapse and brain destruction by lack of oxygen in 1990 had resulted from wrongdoing by anyone.
It is unthinkable, it seems, that a Bush might suffer loss of face, and that's what this latest 'investigation' crap is really all about.

Fuck Jeb Bush.
There was a point in time when I thought he was a more reasonable person that either his idiot brother or asshole father. Apparently I was wrong.
