Now that Terri Schiavo’s heart has stopped beating, her case enters a new phase. Her body will ascend physically into heaven after three days, where she will plot with the Almighty to bring about stem cell research on Earth, universal health care, family planning, public awareness on eating disorders, and private accounts for Social Security. As the universal spokesmodel for the Culture of Life, she can do nothing less. Kenny McCormack will work closely with her on this initiative, you bastards.
But on a serious note, the poor woman died of bulimia fifteen years ago, and anybody who tells you otherwise is bullshitting. The feeding pump that was disconnected some thirteen days ago simply maintained her heartbeat by artificial means, and we all know that.
Actually, the family’s statement calling for respect of their religion by eschewing violence did seem awfully appropriate, and I do thank them for that.
Yes, that was a very sound move.
Respect for their religion? What about respect for Terri Schiavo? What about her dignity? Seems her family didn’t give a damn about either when it came to Terri.
