That is correct.
"Therefore, it was not possible for her orally to express an informed wish to have the tube removed"
That is also correct. Everyone involved testified under oath, under penally of perjury, in a court of law, and subject to cross examination, that Terri orally expressed her wish before she was injured.
So? What's your point? The law still applies. Did you think it doesn't?
"Michael Schiavo has admitted several times that it was his own wish, not Terri's: in testimony, on LKL, and most recently in his interview with Keith Olbermann last March 29."
No, no, and no.
Certainly not in his court testimony. Judge Greer found that it was Terri's wish, not Michael's. Document your outrageous claim, if you can.
I read the transcript of his March 29th interview with Keith Olbermann. In it, Keith Olbermann asks, "Was there this sense of releasing someone, was there the sense of fulfilling the wish that you have always said she had for those circumstances?"
Now, how does that tranlate into "the wish that Michael had"? What an idiot.
As to the Larry King Live interview, you misread that the same way you miread Michael's testimony and his interview with Keith Olbermann. Earlier in that same Larry King Live interview there was this exchange:
"KING: If she's not in pain and the parents want her to be alive and you're no longer involved, so what? Why not keep her alive?"
"M. SCHIAVO: Because this is what Terri wanted. This is her wish."
So, believe what you will.

From the same interview:
KING: Do you understand how they feel?
M. SCHIAVO: Yes, I do. But this is not about them, it's about Terri. And I've also said that in court. We didn't know what Terri wanted, but this is what we want...
And a biased judge selected whatever he wished. This is kid stuff. The whole thing was flagrantly dishonest.
In any event, Judge Greer's court is adjourned in the matter. His authority is no more. You routinely base the bulk of your arguments on Greer rulings and on an extremely dubious claim of due process in the case. But that's looking backwards. To cite Greer at this point is to beg all the questions. The question today and for the futre is not how he ruled (which we all know), but did he rule rightly? Most of us here believe that he did not.
In any case, and regardless of any individual's wishes, it is George Greer and his rulings that are in the docket now, in a much more rigorous court -- the court of history. The questions will not go away. The legal fictions and chicanery will melt away. He can't be excused forever.
