The Black Republican

I have had enough with all of the misinformation about the late Terri Schindler that is still going around. Last night it was Timmy Russert telling Jay Leno all about the case, and showing his ass in the process, as he got several facts wrong. The other day it was a left-leaning weblog, which I happened onto by way of a link, which was basing their present strategy against the religious ones on a false premise. And, we can't forget the fabricators in chief at the MSM, who saw it in their interest to let the American people believe every falsehood possible in order to get Terri killed.

Enough! Enough with the urban myths. It is time to get Snopes.com on the case. We need the best myth-busters we can find to put it all together in one place. I propose to send the good people over there the question.

Was Terri in a PVS? (persistent vegatative state) Was she terminally ill? Could she have swallowed water had it been offered after her tube was removed? Was an MRI ever conducted? Was her cranium holding only a sack of spinal fluid? Did her husband essentially abandon her to start a new family? How did she come to be injured? How did Michael use the settlement money? Is starving to death painful? Etc....

I am asking for your help in compiling all of the questions which remain unanswered, or in dispute. I wish to send one comprehensive list of questions, presented as an urban myth, and request that they snope out the truth.

Will you help? If yes, please leave your remarks in the comments section. I am looking for any questions for which you do not feel you have a satisfactory answer. And, any issue on which there is not consensus.

With my thanks, Rick Jones

Update- On a tip from Chris, by way of Steve; I checked Wikipedia and find that there is already a biography started. However, it appears to have been written by one of the "kill Terri" crowd. Much work to do.
