Q. Have you considered turning the guardianship over to Mr. and Mrs. Schindler?

SCHIAVO: No, I have not.

Q. And why?

SCHIAVO: I think that's pretty self explanatory.

Q. I'd like to hear your answer.

SCHIAVO: Basically I don't want to do it.

Q. And why don't you want to do it?

SCHIAVO: Because they put me through pretty much h*** the last few years.

Q. And can you describe what you mean by h***?

SCHIAVO: The litigations they put me through.

Q. Any other specifics besides the litigation?

SCHIAVO: Just their attitude towards me because of the litigations. There is no other reason. I'm Terri's husband and I will remain guardian.

What I find remarkable is his assertion that an affair (he actually had multiple) while staying married to Terri was somehow honorable:

Lauer: People have often asked. Michael why didn't you divorce Terri, you were living with Jodi.

Michael Schiavo: Why do I have to divorce Terri? Terri wasn't like a football-- an inanimate object you pass back and forth. She was my wife. You mean because your wife gets sick, do you give her back?

Jodi Schiavo: I would think so much less of Michael had he walked away from her. That is one of the qualities in him that I so admire. That up against everything...he stuck by her...

An appeal to sentimentally as a justification for adultery? Yet, this didn't stop Michael's legal representative, George Felos, at the expense of Terri's medical fund, from likening Terri to a "houseplant".

I've had enough of Michael Schiavo and tire of speculation regarding what he did or did not do. His alleged hidden agenda pales in comparison to the events (Terri's dehdration and death) that are publicly known.
