Yet again.

John Kerry: Jackass of the week.

I have not read a blog or been able to post for almost a week now since I have been on vacation with my family, but have been following Terri’s story on the Florida local news and in the papers at night. I just saw that Terri has passed away without her family present. I was able to get internet access for long enough to post this (in the hotel lobby), but it will have to be brief. I find it almost impossible to believe that with the support of both Republicans and Democrats, with worldwide media attention and with access to both state and federal court systems, Terri’s family was not able to save their daughter. They were not allowed to give her food or water. They were not able to be with her when she died. I will post more thoughts on the entire ordeal when I am back home. I am still not quite able to process everything yet. It is almost too much to comprehend.

Terri Schiavo has finally escaped the control of her husband, and the Court which addresses this case in future has a Judge which cannot be bought, fooled, or ignored.

Note the category ‘Yahoo’ used for the story, to get an idea of how, even now, the Left is spinning the event.

So, if you’re Michael “Compassion” Shiavo, George Felon Felos, Judge “Err on the side of Death” Greer, or the others who cheered on the malignant forces of suffering, what do you do now, since you’ve done your murder just as you liked?

Why, you spin the defense so you can get away with it, of course. Note how the Death advocates are already saying the autopsy can’t prove that Michael lied. After all, what’s the use of murdering an inconvenient spouse, if the evidence comes back and hits you later?

“Hanoi Jane” Fonda finally has admitted she betrayed her country.

Alas, I seriously doubt the Junior Democrat Senator, from Massachusetts, will be the next one to step up to that particular plate.

Just a hunch.

Here’s a transcript of the President’s remarks from earlier today.

Paul Wolfowitz is the new chief of the World Bank.

“No compromise, no peace.”

Sandy Berger just copped a plea.

Somewhere, out there, Susan MacDougal and Webster Hubbell probably just smiled, sheepishly, and nodded their heads.

I published a story about the attempt to shut down Gay Patriot. It turns out Michael Rogers wasn’t done with his vendetta. When Robert posted the same article, complete with a “Gay Terrorist” headline, Michael Rogers contacted his CSP and got his site shut down. Note please, that Mr. Rogers did not try to work things out with either blogger, or discuss the issues. Nope, he tried to cause trouble with one guy’s job, and harassed another guy’s Service Provider into dumping him. First Amendment? Never heard of it, I guess.

Here is Lime Shurbet’s write-up. Note that Robert has saddled up with another provider. That alone deserves respect.

More details about Mr. Rogers’ ‘gotta whack free speech’ campaign can be found at My Pet Jawa.

I want to mention that I differ on the use of the word “terrorist” by Gay Patriot to describe Michael Rogers , because I do not use the word “terrorist” for anyone except a particular class of villain. That does not mean, however, that Mr. Rogers has any basis or merit in his vindictive attacks on honest bloggers, especially as he is apparently unable to argue his defense through facts or reason. Given the tactics he has used to harass his political opposites, Rogers is actually validating their charges against him, I would say. He’s not a terrorist, but he is a thug.

In what is getting to be a comedy, Representative Patrick Kennedy of Rhode Island has decided not to run against incumbent Senator Lincoln Chafee.

Of course the other Congressman, James Langevin, has also dropped out of the race. The only remaining candidate is Secretary of State Matt Brown, and a recent poll showed Chafee crushing Brown.

Now to transform this from a momentary political comedy to a timeless classic, we need Myrth York to run and lose again.
