Mostly silence from the big right-wing bloggers: In the wake of the Schiavo autopsy report showing that she was essentially brain dead, we decided to check the right-wing bloggers to see what they had to say: But look here! Michelle Malkin - plays doctor: You do not need a medical examiner's license to see that the report raises many more questions than it answers, though from the (once again) misleading media coverage, we are led to believe that the matters of Terri's life and murder are resolved. They are not. Malkin spends most of here time writing in a manner to sully Michael Schiavo: "The autopsy report spends three-and-a-half pages debunking Schiavo's claim [of bulimia]"
and
"However, the report notes this caveat: "Without the orginal bone scan and radiographs from that period, no other conclusions can [be] reasonably made." Malkin is saying that maybe he did beat her up.

And the response from the left wing is, essentially, "See! The autopsy *PROVES* she was disabled enough to be properly put to death."
For those who cared, it was never a matter of degree.
(Quiddity, this is not aimed at you, so please don't take offense)
hate this knee jerk posturing that dictates that since the right is one side of something, liberals must take up the opposite.
im not going to speculate how this woman ended up in a coma, but...
what kind of a man kicks out his wife's family out of the room the last moments of her life? what kind of a man refuses to consider the manner of burial the family would like their daughter to receive nor let them attend any kind of ceremony? what kind of man refuses to allow a family to see their daughter's cremated ashes? where i come from, this guy is a jerk.
nobody's husband i know would stoop so low.
the level of disdain heaped upon this grieving family from those on the left has been embarrasing.
and this smug "neener neener" attitude that's followed the heels of this report is immature and unbecoming, to say the least.
i believe in the self-determined right to euthenasia...but not like this.
Hm, well Hello, I think that it's the kind of man who loves his wife, has come to a difficult decision after a half decade caring for her personally, trying every experimental therapy that existed to bring her back to him, and then when nothing more could be done, had to endure a decade of his wife's parents suing him.
In laws can be a pain in the ass even at the best of times. I don't blame him one bit.
