What no one has even begun to explain to me is why the protection of Terri's right to life not Constitutinal. That is THE most fundamental of rights. All else is built around that foundation.

"...why the protection of Terri's right to life not Constitutinal."

That should read: "...why the protection of Terri's right to life is not Constitutional."

I am SO tired!

I wish someone would explain to me why Terri can be starved to death when assisted suicide is not legal.
MS is predicating his actions on a claim that this is Terri's choice. That makes it a suicide they're assisting, no?

Because it was court ordered. Our fundamental rights are quite clear in the Constitution and Bill of Rights. We have STATES' rights, over and above the dictates of the federal government.
