Remember that if MS and Felos are to maintain their contention that Terri is already dead, they *can't* allow her even the most ordinary of comforts. Once a pro-death court (Greer, et al) acknowledges *any* lack of care as untoward, the flood gates open to admittance that Terri is disabled and entitled to Consitutional rights.

This gets entangled in "Right-to-Die" issues, and the web gets so tangled these people can't keep their lies straight. But it doesn't matter; they just make it up as they go anyway. All that matters to them is that these people die.

I have incurable cancer, and I intend to die of cancer, *not* of dehydration or starvation or an overdose of drugs.

I also have two children with autism. My oldest is 28, and extremely low-functioning. His "quality of life" is totally different from "normal" people's. He likes doing what he does every day; he's a happy guy. He likes his visits here at home, and getting his treats, and getting his head rubbed and getting hugged. When he's not happy he lets us know. That's the extent of Tony's life. Would Tony rather live or die?

There are people, the exact people that want Terri to die, that think Tony should die. It's not a fiction that it *actually* happened in Germany, and the same exact thing is happening here, with the exact same reasoning. It is, in fact, the exact same reasoning that caused the Haulocast. And that's not an over reaction. The "slippery slope" is very, very real. The death of "terminal" people by dehydration and starvation and a little extra morphine in the drip is *old* news. The death of people who are "better off dead" is the death of Western Culture, the completion of the Nazi ideal.

The Scriptural ideal of the righteous person is one who cares for widows and orphans, the champion of the helpless. The champion of the Culture of Death is the one who removes the weak from Society, and disguises it as compassion. And emerges as the Nazi warrior. Good for *this* world. Both Michael Shiavos and George Felos might feel like victorious warriors for now. They may actually win, you know; Terri may die at their hands. But God's revenge for Terri will be terrible, because they *know exactly what they're doing.*

Quite so; thank you for your very insightful comment. They had to keep up the "Terri is gone" facade. That is, except when they lament about the "suffering" of a "vegetable." Is this two faced or what?

The ghouls are out in force again tonight.
