Michael Schiavo says the culture war ain't over 'til it's over

A post today in the daily kos by Michael Schiavo, remember him, the husband from the media circus here in the Untied States. It's basically telling Joe Lieberman and people like him where they can shove it. I don't know much about his PAC but I like the concept and think this country needs a republicandectomy.

Before it's too late. It took the fall of France before Neville Chamberlain finally was removed from the job.

I can tell you exactly what Michael Schiavo's PAC is all about, I heard an interview with him -- it was set up specifically to make those politicians who played trivial political games with his agonizing tradegy pay a price for their rotten behavior.

He said any candidate running against an incumbant that grandstanded on his wife's case will receive money from his PAC, and he will personally pay a visit to those districts to remind the voters explicitly what pain these political buffoons caused with their political gamesmanship. Those incumbants wanted TV time to grandstand on Terry Shiavo then, now Michael Schiavo will be coming to their district to make sure they get TV time NOW and make them pay for interfering where they had no business interfering. It backfired on those politicians then who pretended to be able to diagnose his wife on the floor of Congress, now Mr. Shiavo just wants to remind the voters to make sure that backfire is a political gun shot that will hopefully make a terminal case of the political careers of politicians that abused their power.

As one of the sons who had to fight hospital bureaucracy just so that my father could pass away with dignity in the way he wanted at home, long after the doctor had said there was no hope and no reason to keep him in the hospital, I think I can understand some of what Mr. Shiavo feels, but I can barely imagine the turmoil Mr. Shiavo must have gone through with the entire nation playing looky loo and politicians trying to score cheap poltical points by interefering in a tough decision he had to make.

I applaud his actions now. Good for him.
