[The Other Harry]

In April 2001, her death by dehydration was ordered to begin, and the day her feeding was stopped her brother and sister came by with a spoon and a cup of pudding, asking a nurse to try to feed her by mouth. The nurse refused and reported the request to others. When Schiavo found out he demanded that Bobby and Suzanne be removed from the list of approved visitors, and Greer rubberstamped his request....

We're supposed to be polite here, right?

I cannot be. What I have to say would not be the least bit polite. What I would like to do would get me in quite a bit of trouble.

I have an odd habit of laughing and tapping my fingers when I don't think something is the least bit funny. I laughed and tapped a lot at the above.

What I would like to do is to go down into the basement and open a few boxes. I better not.

I hear ya'. This situation is so cockamaymie that's it's hard to understand why others don't see it. What's so wromg about feeding her by mouth? It makes no sense.

Another Freeper told me the judge was probably afraid she'd choke. I had no words for such an inane answer.
