Well, I've got a Health Care Directive (a.k.a. "living will") and a Health Care Power of Attorney. I'd hate for my state to suddenly decide that it knew my desires better than me. If I were in Terri's position, I'd hope my spouse would execute my wishes and pull the plug.

Non-sequitur. Terri Schiavo has no such Directive or living will. All there is is the word of her hateful husband who stands to inherit a large chunk of the settlement given to Terri for her rehab. and medical care.

Why would anyone take the word of Terri's sleazy husband?

What's next? Scott Peterson's defense maintaining that Laci wanted to die and he was just following her wises? You think that is abusurd? Well, so is letting Terri die on the bases of the words of a person lacking any credibility.
