Jorge "The woman has been in a permanent vegetative state for 13 years."
Just cut it out! If you've seen the video, you know that she is not in a "vegitative" state.
Every report I've seen says that all CREDIBLE Medical experts say Terri is in a permanent vegetive state. With virtually NO HOPE of coming out of it.
I saw the video. And the experts say what we saw is not uncommon for people in vegetative states. To smile, grimace etc.
Do you know more than the experts?
Based on some of your ludicrous posts (this one included), I would argue that it's more likely you've been in a permanent vegitative state for 13 years.
I'm sorry that your arguments so weak.... that you feel the need to resort to personal insults rather than addressing anything I've said.

The Florida legislature just voted overwhelmingly to give life a chance and you choose to take your teeth out at the dinner table. Give it a rest.

If you continue to claim that all "credible" experts have said this then you haven't researched this case much, have you? Many respected experts in this field have examined Terri and said EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE. I guess they are just not credible because they don't fit what you want to hear?

A sure and knowledgeable neurologist told us to have our son institutionalized 7 years ago, as he was extremely retarded, would never progress. His speech was verbal salad, of no significance. His ability to read, which he taught himself to do at age 2 was of no importance. "No more significan than a trout's recognition of a fly on the water." Our son is now in the 6th grade at a good private (NOT special education) school making A's and B's. He has friends, loves the Harry Potter movies, in fact, ANY movie, and has a great career as an artist ahead of him, or any other thing he so desires. The neurologist was wrong about him, as are the ones claiming Terri is no longer there. I've worked with children with Cerebral Palsy, too. They are still people.
Automatic acceptance of authority is stupid and wrong. Challenge Authority! Get an education, and become the Authority. Then teach your students to do the same.

I have no interest addressing your pro-death idiocy. I've wasted my time responding to your pro-sodomy spew before to no avail. I will not waste another second responding to your vile opinions on this case. They are beneath contempt.

Last night, one Florida congressman spoke how "THE EXPERTS" said his Dad would be either comatose or a vegatable for the rest of his life. THE EXPERTS WERE WRONG!!!
