Transcript: Michael Schiavo on 'Nightline'

Michael Schiavo and his attorney were on Nightline, talking again about Terri's 'wishes'. The transcript is available. He 'loves her'..... it is four pages.

That is why he will treat her as no animal would be treated. Starve her and dehydrate her til she dies. Don't ANYONE ever 'love me' that way. Until I am actually dying, and my body can no longer assimilate food and water, don't anyone ever tell anyone that it is for MY sake that you are killing me with such 'kindness'... remember my patient from the other night....

Lord have Mercy.

Cardinal von Galen, pray for Terri.

Michael Schiavo attacks legislators 'Nightline' interview

Dunedin, Florida - The husband of brain-damaged Terri Schiavo attacked Florida legislators today, saying they were pandering to voters by trying to pass a bill that could prevent the removal of her feeding tube.

Michael Schiavo says Governor Jeb Bush and legislators stepped into his personal life and used the case to win votes. Schiavo made the comments during an interview with ABC News "Nightline" as lawmakers worked in Tallahassee to pass a bill that will prevent the feeding tube's removal, now set by a judge for Friday.

Bush's office did not return telephone calls on the subject late today.

Terry Schiavo, 41, has been at the center of a long and bitter court battle between her parents and her husband. He wants to remove her feeding tube so she can die -- he says by her wishes, made long ago.
