Dogging Michael Schiavo

As if Michael Schiavo hasn't dealt with enough wretched, whacko, crackpot ridiculousness, this alleged man of God is still dogging him:

An Open Letter to Michael Schiavo

Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, and an eyewitness to Terri Schiavo’s final hours, released the following open letter to Michael Schiavo tonight. Fr. Pavone will read it to a worldwide audience on an internationally broadcast religious service on Sunday morning, March 26.

A year ago this week, I stood by the bedside of the woman you married and promised to love in good times and bad, in sickness and health. She was enduring a very bad time, because she hadn’t been given food or drink in nearly two weeks. And you were the one insisting that she continue to be deprived of food and water, right up to her death. I watched her face for hours on end, right up to moments before her last breath. Her death was not peaceful, nor was it beautiful. If you saw her too, and noticed what her eyes were doing, you know that to describe her last agony as peaceful is a lie.

There's more, but that's all you need to read to get the gist.

The irony is, had Pavone been allowed to give Terri food and water, she'd have choked on it and died.

Terri Schiavo was a human vegetable. If Pavone had a decent bone in his body (not to mention compassion), he'd have owned up to the disaster people like himself made of the Schiavo situation and crawl back under the rock from whence he came.
