Carrying a little stick and speaking loudly in Milwaukee

The autopsy of Terri Schiavo was released today, and not surprisingly Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist was incorrect in his diagnosis from a remote location that she was responding to visual stimuli.

From Think Progress:

Freshly-released autopsy results reveal that Terri Schiavo was blind:

Pinellas-Pasco Medical Examiner Jon Thogmartin concluded that…her brain was about half of normal size when she died. …

Thogmartin says her brain was “profoundly atrophied” – and that the damage was “irreversable.” He also says, “The vision centers of her brain were dead” – meaning she was blind.
