Mangled Thoughts

1. Terri Schiavo:

Acording to the public statement summing up the autopsy report, regions of the brain were permanently destroyed and would not repair: Terri would have never have come out of the coma.

The justification for the killing of Terri was: she is a vegetable; according to her husband, she expressed if she should be so reduced, she would prefer to have her life ended.

That statement by the husband contradicts outright an earlier statement made by him, and is raised again in the material below.

The judiciary having made that decision, killing her by starvation was gruesome, and hypocritical. Worse, the lefties who, clapping their hands at the decision, how `wonderful’, `how compassionate ‘ it was, then cried, `at last she is free to give up her life’, re-iterated by the medja. Disgusting, shallow, and a sign of men and women who are corrupt intellectually and morally. No one `gives up’ their toehold on this mortal chicken roost, they are kicked off it by death, the breaking down of theold bod which commences in the 40’s to 50’s, or hrutled off it sooner by accident or deliberate killing. The hypcrisy, the ordering of her killiing while pretending,, she died `naturally’ and `volitionally’, and even `willed her death’. It would have been mercifiul and not hypcoritical to do as the order was given, kill her with a lethal injection of a fast acting poison.

It should not be forgotten, Terri’s mother and siblings were over-ruled, their points suppressed, in favour of those of her `husband’ and the `professional carers’. Appalling , shocking conduct, on the part of, in particular, the Judges.

The above, one believes, sums up the available, to date, facts of the Terri Schiavo case. Then, along comes a retired LAPD detective, and he has brought his expertise and experience to examining what actually happened. Here is the summary of the book he has published on the case:

Fuhrman here applies all his highly respected investigative skills to the medical evidence, legal case files, and police records. The result is this sobering book.

With the complete cooperation of Terri Schiavo’s parents and siblings, as well as their medical and legal advisers, and exclusive interviews with forensics experts, friends of Terri, and Terri’s caregivers, Fuhrman uncovers detail after shocking detail of the Schiavo case — details that the liberal media overlooked in its haste to see Terri die. He reveals explosive facts about Terri’s marriage, her condition when she collapsed (including the truth about her alleged “bulimia”), the bitter battles that went on for years between her parents and her husband Michael Schiavo, and the sparsely reported circumstances surrounding her death. He sifts through the evidence and frankly examines the oft-discussed possibility that Michael Schiavo strangled Terri, or that her condition was caused by his beating her.

Above all, Fuhrman proves that the death of Terri Schiavo was a legal homicide perpetrated by the State of Florida at the behest of Michael Schiavo — who, while he always protested that he was doing it all for Terri, was actually in it always and only for himself. He demonstrates that Terri died because everyone failed her: the people charged with her care, the police, the politicians and judges involved with the case, and above all the man who claimed to care for her more than anyone else: her husband Michael Schiavo. Says Fuhrman of Terri’s husband: “the control that he exerted over even the smallest details concerning her treatment, the efforts that he made to restrict access to her medical records and permission to visit her, and finally the stubbornness with which he pursued her legally sanctioned death — is extreme to the point of suspicion.”

Fuhrman’s conclusions about the details of the case are often surprising, always carefully weighed, and more urgent than ever — now that the Left is doing its best to use the precedents set by the Schiavo case to narrow the right to life even further. Now that Terri is dead, the Schiavo controversy has dropped out of the headlines and talk shows. But the struggle for the defense of life rages on. The legal issues and ethical questions provoked by Terri Schiavo’s extraordinary case may be hotly debated for years to come. Silent Witness reveals why the struggle to make sure there are no more Terri Schiavos is more urgent than ever.

Mark Fuhrman reveals:
How, when she saw family members crippled and incapacitated, Terri Schiavo never mentioned that she would not want to be kept alive in such a state

Stench, it wreaks of major criminal offences committed by the husband, the `professionals’ who label themselves in Orwellian tone `carers’ [ a nurse is a nurse, and I don’t give a damn whether she does or does not `care’ about patients or not, so long as she does the job she’s paid to do diligently, soame of doctors], to the Judges who handed down that decision, compounded, if Furhman is correct, deliberate perversion of the course of justice in order to protect one criminal behind what was done to Schiavo, the husband, assisted by the `professional medical carers’ who obliged by covering more tracks. The coronor’s report, and one assumes it is true, doesn’t paper over and excuse the actions of all those who are involved , including the judges in this shocking affair. Heads should roll, not just that of the husband.

An Australian Doctor declared on radio, what was done to Terri would not be done in Australia, and Austrlaian doctors certainly would not coutenance. That’s a generalisation which, these days is not altogether secure, and it is rather plausible a judge or two could be dredged up to do as their U.S. counterparts did. As for nurses, well, that they style themselves these days as `professional carers’ sums things up nicely.

2. Corby: it is, as Downer mused, a bit like following a soapie, but not Croby as such is the subject. Medja attention to an arrest made a fortnight ago was confined to a very brief mention on radio, slipped in an early evening news bulletin, the Friday of that week. The report:
A Mexican ghad been detained by customs, and arrsted and charged by Federal Police , and refused bail, on the count of importing a large quantity of cocaine concealed by a false bottom in his suitcase, several kilos of cocaine.

What would happen if he claims as Corby has, and the screamers in Oz howling for blood, the blood of Howard and the INdon judges ? I say, nothing, not even a cricket’s chirrup in support of the Mexican.

The Mexcan is actually on terrae firm compared to Corby. There is the appeal being mounted by the Jpanaese girl who had served a jail term in Victoria ofr importation of cocaine in a concealed bottom of her suitcase. The appeal rests on: her suitcase had been stolen and returned soon before departing on a holiday to Oz. The time involved between theft and return being sufficent for a fasle bottom to have been made in the suitcase. That, the federalmpoliceofficers who conducted the investigation had acted as prosecutor, judge and jury and proceed already skewed to convciting the girl. A number of criminal cases have been thus skewed, aslo in Victoria, in the case of real criminals the problem arises, the case can be dismissed even though the criminals are guilty, and entails the pervsion of justice against some not guilty of whatever the charge is. These counts are not merely circumstantial types of evidence , they are major arguments in her favour, whether she is or is not actually guilty. If the appeal to have her conviction squashed is successful, nothing less than a generous compensation payment to her is on order for what would then be beyond doubt, a gross perversion of justice.

While the screamers have vilified Indon customs and police and judges, thiongs are not spot free in Oz. Perhaps the Mexican should do a Corby and whip up a storm back in Mexico, bring pressure to bear, though guilty, in attempt evade justice. It is worth keeping in clear view, Corby is no better than the Mexican. Even so, one agrees with Frank Devine’s drift:

how long before the screamers and the leftoid medja who stirred it, turn against Corby and precisely becasaue, she really is not of good lefty credentials: she’s a good looker, a ahridresser and thus a protean small business entrepenuer, and she flew to Indonesia to profiteer from selling marijuana, four and half kilos of it. Given the disgusting treatment dealt out against Woods by the leftoid medja, my betting is, soon enough , the headlines will read and letters to leftoid papers too: Corby is a nasty, greedy cpaitalist, selfish pig who deserves everything she now lives with. That will happen as soon as the appeal fails, pointing up the sheer hypocrisy, once again by another odious exhibition of their vile conduct, of leftoids and lying leftoid journos, ABC, Age, SMH.

After all, saying Corby is guilty, saying that the penalty is Indon policy is not the same as wishing hell lobbed down upon her. That is the distinction of those who have, such as Faris Q.C., Corby was soundly convicted, as opposed to the medja and the those who swallowed the line, Corby was done it. That rot has not served Corby one bit, has only made her position worse for the appeal. The left’s compassion and sense of justice is built on a steaming heap of shite [ I throw in Fraser, damned by his telling support, when he was Priome Minister, for that savage Robert Mugabe].

Frank Devine:
Corby’s plight lets loose the rednecks from the jungle bar

Corby is fading from public attention. I’m told there’s hostility towards her showing up in the blogosphere, tinged with ugly hints of snobbery. A Gold Coast beautician. With an unfortunate family. Really!

After our passionate fling with Schapelle we won’t look too good if we suddenly dump her.
