The REAL scandal of the Schiavo case.

[Obfuscate]

It's simply a matter of a bunch of liberals finding a victory against Bush since they couldn't do it on the political stage.

The first in many untrue or misinformed statements you made. The people who support the right of people to choose to end their life under certain dire circumstances is supported by people of ALL political affiliations. The fact that the Senate rejected a bill aimed to save Terry Schiavo proves this.

Terry Schiavo lasted for 13 years in a hospital bed w/out proper medical treatment. Now you say her husband has the right to carry out her wishes. This guy shouldn't even be considered that anymore. He moved in with another woman years ago and can't marry her until today's horrible tragedy occured.

If she was truely receiving improper medical care then DCFS would have her husband in court right now trying him and the doctors, nurses and other medical staff for abuse. But they are not. The court found no reasonable evidence to allow DCFS, Department of Children and Family Services for those who dont know, to intervine. Did you know that in her 15yrs in the hospic she NEVER ONCE had a bed sore? Do you know that is THE most common ailment of people in her condition and she has NEVER had one. That alone speakes volumes for the level of care and attention she received.

You say let her "die in peace"....why not just a lethal injection then? Like what Eastwood did in "Million-Dollar Baby"? People sat back and mummified this woman for 2 weeks.

Letting her die in peace and lethal injection are two completely different things. Lethal injection is illegal unless deemed okay by a court of ones peers. Which only happens in criminal cases. Under Florida law the only way you can "kill" someone who has asked to be "killed" is to pull the plug, for lack of better wordage.

And back to the care she recieved....her husband would do anything for her? Put myself in his shoes? If he knew is wife wasn't going to die immediately, then why didn't he pay any money for her care. Besides one old machine pumping fluid into Schiavo, she was not given any other sort of medical treatment. Modern machinery was turned down by her husband. Her teeth rotted because he didn't give her dental care.

The women could breath on her own, her heart beat on its own, her liver processed blood in fact all of her other internal organs functioned just fine other than the fact she as clinically a vegetable. So other than that old fluid pump no other machienery was needed.

Okay her teeth rotted. That is rather horrible but logical. She can not chew and swallow her own food so having a dentist come in to clean her teeth on a regular basis is like scrubbing a permanent stain on the floor. It may make you feel like your doing something but in the end you would have been just as well off leaving it alone. Beyond that I am sure her parents could have gotten that taken care of by the courts if they REALLY cared about her too. Interesting they didnt though isnt it?

This man didn't care for her. He wasn't carrying out her wishes. It is a heresay trial. And I'm sure her wishes were not to be dehydrated for 2 weeks, to have her teeth rot, etc. If anything, it should have been a lethal injection if that is how you were going to kill her.

Again thats illegal. He was not looking to break the law just simply carry out her wishes. There is a difference.

And Sinner says this is the law? Technically he's right. But this law was heavily enforced by liberal courts that allowed heresay evidence to stand very strong. Most other states need more evidence than this in order to pull out the tube. So I hope you are happy Sinner. At least your party can win by allowing heresay to look like gold and murder a woman to make up for their horrible losses in the elections.

My party? Liberals? My "party" so you know is NOT the liberals. I happen to have voted Bush in the last election. Beyond that you can refer to the first statement I made.

You say we should treat Iraqi women and children with some decency? Why not our own Terri Schiavo? k

Great way to compare two completly different topics.
