So what?

Mistakes happen.

Doctors are sometimes wrong.

Juries are sometimes wrong.

Public Opinion is sometimes wrong.

I guess we can use that when Bush does something wrong then too huh? Or, name a politician. Why are you here? Aren't you on FR to fight so that people DON'T keep doing these things wrong? How unbelieveably callous.

Suppose a guy drinks too much and runs over your daughter/son. Whoops. Mistakes are made. So what?

No, we don't stop trying to do better, but what every Terri supporter seems to want is to throw out our whole system of jurisprudence and medicine and put in an entirely new one to compensate for a possible mistake.

If some drunk runs over my son, that is reason to try to prevent drunk driving, not to reinstate prohibition or to ban automobiles.

85% of Americans believe that the spouse should make life and death decisions for someone unable to make their own. They like the way the law is now. They are going to be furious if congress changes it over one possible bad decision.

Am I callous?
Maybe so, or maybe just realistic, but all I see is a lot of former conservatives suddenly becomming interventionist democrats wanting to bring on Big Brother for the entire nation, because of a possible injustice to one woman.
