"I don't see how it going to be stopped short of a kidnapping to save her life."

If Michael Schiavo were to meet an untimely end he would cease to be the decision maker in Terri's life and another guardian, most likely her parents, would be appointed. I am not suggesting or recommending anything, but if it were my daughter being starved to death I would certainly trade a lengthy prison term for her life.

I agree. He probably would have had some type of accident by now.

No not suggesting or recommending anything at all... So much for a strong 'sanctity of life' stance. You are clearly stating in the second sentence you could condone the death of a gentleman that has done nothing to you or your family. What should the father do? Take the law into his own hands?

Of course I've seen worse said about this poor judge. He either rules by the rule of law, as 'conservatives' demand, or he is an activist judge and legislates from the bench, which 'conservatives' rail against. The poor man has been kicked out of his church and ostracized by the community. What in the heck did you want him to do? Create precedent and overturn centuries of common law, not to mention the absolute strain this whining to the national government has put on the Constitution. I really hope when this is said and done, whatever happens, Republicans realize the vitriol they have stated these past few days against those conservatives that have an opinion different from theirs and some of the absolutely idiotic things they've spouted in the current rush of emotions.
