Terri has left us
by The Panda Man · 03/31/2005 3:32 pmRest in peace, Terri.
A life was suppressed
Was justice denied?
Death has exalted
While a nation cried.
The weakest among us
Protection deserved?
The right path laid out
How far have we swerved?
What hope for the future?
When all round seems lost
To push back the darkness
Will we bear the cost?

Jeremy, thanks. You should send this to the Congress.
Well that little Terri diversion is over. What shall we talk about? The malnourished children of Iraq? Laura admiring about how safe Afghanistan feels as her Secret Service armada hands out cookies? Those mean ol’ tally-ban and their Allah are prolly in Iran building new-clear bombs anyway. I know, I know!! Let’s talk about money and power and how we never have enough of either. Dang legislature.

U.S. Soldier Convicted in Court-Martial

WIESBADEN, Germany (AP) - A military court on Thursday found a U.S. Army tank company commander guilty of charges related to the shooting death of a wounded Iraqi last year.
Capt. Rogelio “Roger” Maynulet, a 30-year-old from Chicago, stood at attention as the verdict was read. The charge - assault with intent to commit voluntary manslaughter - carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.
The court was to reconvene later Thursday to consider Maynulet’s sentence.
Prosecutors had sought a conviction on a more serious charge of assault with intent to commit murder, which carries a 20-year maximum.
Prosecutors said Maynulet violated military rules of engagement by shooting a man who was wounded and unarmed. Maynulet, 30, maintained that the man was gravely wounded and that he shot him to end his suffering.
Maynulet’s 1st Armored Division tank company had been on patrol near Kufa on May 21, 2004, when it was alerted to a car thought to be carrying a driver for radical cleric Muqtada al-Sadr and another militiaman loyal to the Shiite cleric.
The U.S. troops chased the vehicle and fired at it, wounding both the passenger, who fled and was later apprehended, and the driver. The killing was filmed by a U.S. drone surveillance aircraft.
Is it possible that we have just experienced the first perfect crime? Not simply witnessed, but Terri’s journey brought us along with her, and we grieve with the family. However, this entire saga has created more questions than answers.
Glad I’m not like Mike or J. Greer
Well I cancelled my subscription Houston Chronicle, after listening to Edd Handee this morning about the reports remark to one of the commanders that has just returned from Iraq.
Hope the reports take the “glory” for my cancellation.
I heard last night that Michael Schiavo already has offers for a movie, book, or t.v. special about Terri. This slime mercilessly killed his wife, and now stands to make millions. At least I won’t contribute. I will contact any television network that might make an offer and protest. I refuse to put money in Michael’s pocket by buying a book or seeing the movie. We all know what the truth is. Why pay for something that will be the truth according to Michael Schiavo anyway?
