Terri Schiavo’s father, Robert Schindler, Sr., passed away this morning. He was a passionate and invaluable advocate for life.
R.I.P.
Life News reports on his death here.
Wesley J. Smith writes that “condolences can be sent to: Terri Schindler Schiavo Foundation, 5562 Central Avenue ~ Suite 2 – St. Petersburg, FL – 33707.”

No opinion on Terri Schiavo?

This post is by the lizards (mostly Sachi), not by our dearest Michelle; the host is on holiday somewhere — I think she said Akron, but the connection was bad.

The Iraq war — indeed, the larger GWOJ (global war against jihadism) — is as much a propaganda war, a war of ideas and “memes,” as [...]

Don’t you love farce?
Eric Boehlert has a post titled “Michelle Malkin fiddles while Baghdad burns” that’s making the rounds on the moonbat side of the blogosphere.
Bob Owens has a takedown of the Media Matters bloviator here:
In Michelle Malkin fiddles while Baghdad burns, Boehlert dishonestly addresses the continuing Associated Press scandal surrounding the “Burning Six” story [...]

Terri Schiavo’s husband and parents marked the anniversary of her death fittingly this week, appearing nightly on cable news shows to (a) claim the moral high ground while (b) accusing each other of having helped cause her death. A video montage is below; it might take a minute to load, but it’s worth your [...]

A Terri Schiavo Blogburst has been launched (Hat tip: Crystal Clear):
On March 31, 2005, Terri Schindler Schiavo died of marked dehydration following more than 13 days without nutrition or hydration under the order of Circuit Court Judge, George W. Greer of the Pinellas-Pasco’s Sixth Judicial Court. Terri was 41.
It was nearly one year ago that [...]

My latest column covers the Haleigh Poutre case and challenges Hollywood’s “Save Tookie” crowd to apply their “err on the side of life” standard to an innocent child for once.
Meanwhile, some sneering pundits seem quite upset that conservatives they disagree with are writing and talking about Haleigh’s fate. Cathy Young, for example, accuses me of [...]

***update: Hugh Hewitt interviewed Joel Stein today and posts his thoughts…transcript and audio at Radioblogger…***
Some website has named me the 49th most loathsome person in America. (I’m just ahead of Geraldo. Others on the list: 30) Hillary Clinton; 29) Terri Schiavo; 19) James Sensenbrenner; 13) God; 4) You.)
You want loathsome? I nominate LA Times [...]

*AP names Hurricane Katrina its top story of the year. Can’t argue with that. The rest of the top ten:
2: PAPAL TRANSITION: John Paul II’s death marked the passing of the first non-Italian pope in 455 years and ended a 26-year pontificate, third-longest in history. In a remarkable show of affection, many millions attended services [...]

Here’s Cindy Sheehan in Newsweek, biting the MSM hand that has fed her so royally the last six months:
What do you think you achieved in Crawford?
We brought the war into the forefront of American consciousness and started the discussion that should have started before the war. The mood in our country is turning around.
But the [...]

On Friday, Editor and Publisher hyped this Sunday NYTimes magazine piece by Michael Crowley about the influence of conservative vs. liberal blogs.
Maureen Dowd and Paul Krugman offer stiff competition on a weekly basis, but Crowley’s embarrassing little squib (283 words) has to be one of most insipid, shallow, and uninformed wastes of space to grace [...]

The Supreme Court’s decision in the New London eminent domain case is in, and it’s a devastating blow against homeowners and private property rights:
A divided Supreme Court ruled Thursday that local governments may seize people’s homes and businesses against their will for private development in a decision anxiously awaited in communities where economic growth often [...]

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Camp Delta) refuses to apologize for his unhinged remarks likening American interrogators and Gitmo military staff to Nazis, Soviet gulag operators and genocidal maniac Pol Pot. (Radioblogger has the audio; Trey Jackson’s got video.)
Earlier today, as you know, White House spokesman Scott McClellan castigated Durbin.
What America needs is for President Bush himself [...]

Late last night, I took the time to read the 39-page autopsy report of Terri Schiavo–something which, it is clear to me, most of the callous gloaters on the other side of this debate have not bothered to do. And will never do. These are people who can only talk about the sanctity of life [...]

After a long and unexplained delay, the Terri Schiavo autopsy results will be released tomorrow.
Meanwhile, Mark Fuhrman’s investigative book on the case, Silent Witness : The Untold Story of Terri Schiavo’s Death, is due out on June 28.
Terri’s brother and sister will attend a memorial in her name at the National Right to Life Convention [...]

This blog turned one last week! (BTW: Congrats to Karol at Alarming News, which turned the Big 3 today.)
First, some blogiversary expressions of gratitude:
Special thanks to the following people for their warm welcomes, words of advice/encouragement, and early links during mm.com’s incipient days: John, Paul, and Scott at Power Line, John Hawkins at Right Wing [...]

The same folks that gave us a misleading poll about Terri Schiavo are now reporting the results of a poll that asks, “Would you support or oppose changing Senate rules to make it easier for Republicans to confirm President Bush’s judicial nominees?” Not surprisingly, given the wording of the poll, a huge majority of respondents [...]

You may be getting sick of the Schiavo memo, but Washington Post media critic Howard Kurtz is still spinning the story.
In today’s column, Kurtz cites the memo controversy after pointing out that a growing number of bloggers are engaging in unfair “personal attacks” on MSM reporters and commentators. Like Slate’s Jack Shafer, washingtonpost.com’s [...]

Last week, many conservative bloggers–self included–picked up on a LifeNews.com story about a new Zogby poll that showed a majority of Americans opposing removal of Terri Schiavo’s feeding tube if the question was framed differently than most other MSM polls.
But now some skeptical bloggers–conservative bloggers–are revisiting the poll and asking questions about the sponsors, poll [...]

You’re gonna love this.
Washington Post media critic Howard Kurtz writes about the Schiavo memo once again, finally acknowledging that the Post did indeed report that the talking points were “distributed to Republican senators by party leaders.”
The flap about a Washington Post report on an unsigned strategy memo in the Terri Schiavo case, which the [...]

Reporters at the Washington Post insist they never said the Schiavo “talking points” memo was circulated by Republican operatives.
But the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, one of the newspapers that ran the Post’s March 19 story about the memo, isn’t buying it:
Clarification for April 2
A Washington Post article about congressional intervention in the Terri Schiavo case published [...]

In my March 23 column, I wrote: ” Imagine how the poll results might have turned out if ABC News had made clear to participants that Terri is not terminally ill.” Well, no need to imagine any longer. A new Zogby poll suggests that if Americans knew the details of the Schiavo case they would [...]

The death of the Pope just couldn’t stop the libs in the media from showing their true colors.
Example No. 1: Hawk-eyed Hinderaker at Power Line catches the New York Times in an amazing website goof that rivals CBS’s premature Terri Schiavo obit. Check out the screenshot for the anti-Pope bias in black and white. [...]

The essay in The Spectator by Mark Steyn written shortly before Terri Schiavo died and published today is, hands down, the best piece written on the case. Ever.
I had completely forgotten about the Robert Wendland case, which Steyn had highlighted in 1998 and revisited this week. Here’s the intro:
Do you remember a fellow called Robert [...]

I am so sick of the sanctimony of MSM bigmouths lecturing conservatives about the need for civility in the wake of Terri Schiavo’s murder. Look at what MSNBC talk show host Chris Matthews said yesterday on Don Imus’ radio show–a brutish, grotesque, and slanderous quote that the Imus website proudly spotlighted as one of its [...]

Pope John Paul II’s condition is worsening. Marc Thiessen’s piece in NRO, “The Blessed Sounds of Silence,” is a beautiful tribute.
Update: The Pope has been given “last rites” (or rather, the sacrament of anointing the sick). From CNN…
VATICAN CITY (CNN) — Pope John Paul II was given the last rites of the Roman Catholic Church [...]

Okay, did you watch George “Dehydration is Beautiful” Felos’ press conference? Did you get TOTALLY CREEPED OUT, too? How many more times could he drone blandly on about Terri’s “death process?” I stopped counting after the 15th time. Why isn’t anyone in the MSM probing this man’s background, his writings, and his deadly agenda?
Here are [...]

May Terri Schindler-Schiavo rest in peace and God have mercy on us all.
And Death Shall Have No Dominion
And death shall have no dominion.
Dead men naked they shall be one
With the man in the wind and the west moon;
When their bones are picked clean and the clean bones gone,
They shall have stars at elbow and foot;
Though [...]

Code Blue Blog, run by an inpatient radiologist in South Florida, has a $100,000 challenge for the loudmouth neurologists employed by Michael Schiavo:
I’ve watched a steady stream of neurologists, bioethicists, and neurologist/bioethicists from Columbia, Cornell, and NYU interviewed all week on Fox and CNN and MSNBC. They all said about the same thing, that Terri’s [...]
