Sarah Palin apparently following in Teri Schiavo's footsteps. |
By now, eight years later, the details and debate over his sister's situation - her diagnosis, her prognosis, her wishes, her autopsy - are no longer that important to Bobby Schindler.
For him, one thought dominates. Terri Schiavo deserved to live.
Schindler now heads a growing foundation to help others in similar situations. Every year since her death, they've held a "Terri's Day" of remembrance.
This year, the Terri Schiavo Life & Hope Network has moved from Florida to the Philadelphia area, where both the Schindler and Schiavo families are from, and the event has grown.
On Friday at 5 p.m., Archbishop Chaput will celebrate a mass dedicated to Terri Schiavo at the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul. Sarah Palin will speak afterward at a fundraising dinner at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown. A ticket is $150, and 350 have been sold; $25,000 gets you a visit with Palin, but no takers so far, Schindler said.
$25,000 to "visit" Sarah Palin? What kind of a visit would be worth that kind of money?
It can't be a conjugal visit because there is not enough meat on her bones to warrant a payment of 25 cents much less $25,000.
But seriously I am surprised that Palin is not having more success with this crowd, after all she has a long history of necrophilia as represented by her constant fawning over the corpse of Ronald Reagan. Once you go cadaver, nothings the same after.
You know I used to imagine just how far Palin would fall after she left office and then came to the end of her long political prick tease about running for president. But even I never thought she would one day be pimping herself out for a free dinner and a couple of bucks at a fundraising dinner for a corpse.
