MSNBC news conference few minutes: Schindlers to refute

[shelley806]

Pelos's comments...

[Connie_Corleone]

1. Didn't they get the word?

Show's over. The protestors have already packed up and left. Time for the Pope Deathwatch now.

[ClintonTyree]

8. But not the media, they're still there.................

trying to squeeze the last drop of sensationalism out of the story. Really, there must be 50 camera-men still there.
"MORE", they cried, "MORE".

[eleny]

2. More venom in the first sentences

Creepy family.

[adigal]

3. You know what??? I don't care.

Nothing to do with you, shelley806, not being rude to you, but the circus the family has created around this woman's "life" and death is disgusting. They sold her donor list, for chrissakes.

I would love to ask all of those people who spent hundreds of hours holding "vigil for Terri", who was incapable of even knowing it, how much time have they spent with poor/sick/deprived kids in the last year??? I bet you they have spent no time at all.

Culture of life, my ass.

[shelley806]

10. I couldn't agree with you more. This is even more disgusting

than I had imagined though. This family is truly sick. With such hypocrisy, I would have developed a major eating disorder too, which people forget is the true cause of death...the primary reason for death, and caused by these hypocrites.

One human life that actually ended 15 years ago, and all of this ridiculous hulabaloo; motivations are monetary and revenge. Nice Christians, don't you think?

[adigal]

27. They don't know the meaning of the word "Christian"

They are ignorant bullies.

[Liberal Veteran]

4. Good lord! Will it never end?

Jeez....

[DODI]

5. Gee, I think I would be at home mourning, not giving

a news conference.

[AlCzervik]

6. no cameras at home

[NC_Nurse]

7. Do these people actually plan to grieve their

daughter and move on with their lives? Or is this all some pathetic need for attention? Oh wait....I already knew the answer. :eyes:

[ClintonTyree]

15. They need their "fix"...................

withdrawal isn't going to be easy for them. They are hooked on the attention, it's painfully obvious.
It's going to be a long, hard ride for them, putting all of this behind them. Soon, they'll wake up in the morning and WON'T be surrounded by reporters and cameras. That's when their REAL grief will start, when they're finally alone.

[bluedog]

17. they want "privacy" to grieve?

they have no right to say this after the circus they created.......where were the rights of other Hospice patients and families to Grieve when their loved one died...........this pisses me off.......they want left alone..yet they walked all over others around here.

[SudieJD]

9. Milking Their 15 Minutes Of Fame

for all it's worth. Why aren't they saying anything about trying to save her life when she was bulimic???? This doesn't happen overnight.

[adigal]

13. Maybe they can figure out a way to get more $$$ out of this

Maybe they can videotape her corpse and sell that too.

Please let her RIP and go home, people. Mourn your daughter with dignity and privacy.

[Kinkistyle]

20. Maybe thats why they wanted her body intact.

Sell off every hair off her head, skin flakes, etc.. on E-Bay for a fortune. I'm sure something like a whole tooth might rake in thousands.

[ClintonTyree]

21. The movie and book rights will be enormous................

they'll still be attached to the media for quite some time to come, just not in the manner they're accustomed to. It will consume their lives forever. I'd hate to be their other children, talk about neglect.

[shelley806]

19. I agree. See post #10 above.

The ultimate cause of death on her death certificate should actually be the parents, as they are usually the primary etiology of eating disorders:

Cause of Death: Bulimia
Secondary to: Overcontrolling parents

[sescob]

11. Why is he giving a sermon?

This is just so bizarre.

[shelley806]

22. He had an altercation with the police this morning right before Terry

died; this apparently is the reason that Schiavo refused to let them into the room; he would have had to be accompanied by a police officer. He wanted to be in peace when she died...she's been in peace for 15 years.

[wicket]

12. What were Pelos' comments?

[shelley806]

23. He gave a timeline of the morning...spoke very eloquently about

the hypocricy of the priests that the Schindlers had involved themselves with. I didn't hear him mentioned in this family conference though.

Several posts on DU discuss Pelos's conference. I'll get back with the links for you.

[wicket]

28. thank-you!

:)

[oasis]

14. Jeb and Dubya flip flopped on Terri. The ultimate betrayal. After giving

the family hope, they failed to follow through.

[latebloomer]

16. unbelievable!!

Go home, cry, mourn, rage, let go, ACCEPT!!

[onenote]

18. must've heard that the Pope had knocked them off of page 1

onenote

[shelley806]

25. LOL!! Wouldn't it be ironic if the Pope dies on the same day as

Schiavo? She didn't die on Easter and I was afraid if she did, there would be more of a trend to canonize her!

Just heard that the Pope had been given last rites. I do love this Pope, but am in strong disagreement with him on many issues (and I'm not even Catholic).

[Left Is Write]

24. Terrified the attention will be off them now, are they?

[shelley806]

26. Pathetically, that's probably the case. A very sick family IMHO.
