Would that you had the ability to exercise it.

Then please explain just how that was on-topic to this thread (not what you've tried to turn it into, but in relation to the topic).

OTOH, nevermind.

Would you want to live without the ability to even indicate your desires or even show gratitude to the CNA who changes your diaper several times a day and cleans your butt or the nurse who has to force feed you?...

She isn't being force fed she is simply being fed. No, I would not want to live like her. I wouldn't want to be killed because I was either. The staff that takes care of her have made their own free will choices to be in that profession.

I agree with the thrust and most of the detailsof your post KDD, but for some very complex reasons my friend, I've been trying to keep this thread from turning into a discussion of the "Terri' topic.

No offense intended, and I hope you understand.

Still trying to make up your mind?

Understood...FWIW, I don't think you owe anyone an apology.

BTW . . . and besides, I need not tag-team assistance on the side issue here (thanks for the effort anyway, if that was your intent) . . . I've been attacked by a better bunch than this at various times past, here.

They will eventually either wear out, or come to realize their foolish apearance is just getting more and more exposure, and give it up.

OTOH, I may just tire of their game-paying myself. Either way, it'll play itself out.

You may live in Florida but I bet you haven't seen her either have you? From the mountain of articles I've read on this issue I can judge as well as Pinellas Co. residents what the merits of this case are. The judge has refused to hear doctors the Schindlers have brought to court and that smacks of a bias that needs explanation if not investigtion.

No objective posters here do. But I already knew that you fit into that group.

No, it's only that I want it to be clear that I'm not soliciting any of your childish posts; and I know that whith your inability to comprehend subtleties, you might take that post in that way.

Feel free to cary on; but recognize that I may soon dismiss you.

FWIW, I don't think you owe anyone an apology.

You might want to read this thread starting here before you decide. It's the reason for and the explanation of the thread we are on.

When someone posts to me I often respond to it. I'm funny that way.

Feel free to cary on; but recognize that I may soon dismiss you.

Please do.

What is it about the phrase "the topic of this thread is not Terri" that you fail to understand?

But regarding the thrust of your questions, suffice it to say that I've been in a position to aquire some rather unique insight into the matter that interests you.

Well, specifically, your authority to enforce it.

Like you, I recognize emotional dogma when I see it.

Zealots in a crusade to allow imagery to drown out the facts in this case.

They don't care about Terri...now it's just "lets see how much political muscle we can exercise". I think Jeb will ride the backlash out. But the people of Fl. are not happy with the actions he took.
He should have stayed out of it.
Everyone had their day(months and years)in court.

I sense no compassion in the "save Terri" posters...just an agenda.

As requested, you are hereby dismissed.

BTW, that's the first time someone ever asked me for it; I usually tire of their games first.

"It seems that many here take great delight in trying to sustain Terri Schiavo's misery."

He said this? I agree.
