Burnt Orange Report

Letter to the Editor

By Karl-Thomas Musselman

The following Letter to the Editor by me was printed in yesterday's Daily Texan and I was called by the San Antonio Express News letting me know that it will be run soon as well, which I just noticed, meant today.

In Wednesday's Nation Briefs, I found the results of Terri Schiavo's autopsy to be a bit ironic. The tests showed that she was not only irreversibly brain damaged but blind as well.

This goes to show that Republican "Doctor" of the Senate Bill Frist should have refrained from his expert diagnosis from the Senate floor where he questioned her vegetative state status by saying, "I question it based on a review of the video footage which I spent an hour or so looking at last night in my office. She certainly seems to respond to visual stimuli."

So if Frist can make the blind see, maybe he can try to raise the dead as well, bringing Terri back to life just in time for the next election.

I like the headline that the SAEN gave it, "For Frist's Next Miracle.." Haha, thanks guys.
