Gelertner: a remarkable moment. Obligation of us all to feed a person who can't feed herself....morally catastrophic moment that this threshold is being violated.

This is not an unambiguous case of known facts, unassailable, completely without doubt. Why do we thus decide in favor of death?? Amazing!

Schaivo's lawyer claimed the right to murder, in effect.

Add the parents into the equation, and the affair becomes Satanic....

You don't even have to reach the level of religion which seems to make many uncomfortable...this is pre-religion...not complicated, or shouldn't be...

Fundamental moral law: we do not take innocent life.That so many don't see this is distressing.

What do we do, asks Bennett?

Gelertner:Transcendent importance....arguing legal elements is nonsense, thus The Governor should intervene. Complicit by omission, if he doesn't. [Here's my question: Is there any woman out there who would marry Michael Schaivo???] The answer to that might change a few minds...

Okay that's the end of Gelertner's appearance with Bennett....
