or an Islamic terrorist.
Actually, the owners and managers of the New York Times should be rounded up and commited.
Yes. If I were god forbid to have a brain injury today, my wife is by far in the best position to know my wishes. If she finds another guy down the line, she still is in the best position to know my wishes at the time of my incapacity.
Ergo, the law, technically, requires that she be kept alive.
So what was it you were arguing ~ that we kill her anyway?
You really dont seem to understand what a Congressional subpeona and contempt for Congress are, do you?
In this country you don't get to kill people just because they are brain damaged. Maybe that stuff flew in the USSR and Nazi Germany, but not here!
Besides, the method is BARBARIC, INHUMANE and beyond justification.
Was your daddy a mobster, or what?
Uh, that's exactly how it works.
There are no machines. For you to say so suggests you know nothing of this case, or you just wish to take the opportunity to dip your spear in Terri's blood.
I guess that's only a question for you.
As far as Terri's concerned her husband won a 1.2 million dollar lawsuit to pay for her care including rehab and therapy. About 3-4 months later, when the first check was cut from the award, he ordered her rehab and therapy stopped. He has since spent $700,000 of that in court trying to get her food and water stopped.
Are you saying that you didn't see any response from Terri in that video? A "vegetable" can't laugh or make any sounds like that at all. There is a medical definition of persistent vegetative state you know. Tell me this though; if vegetables aren't worth feeding are meatheads? What's the cost to society to let meatheads run around spewing out verbal inanities about subjects they know nothing about? Gas the meatheads!
There was no power of attorney.
I thought we were over that crap.
If you have her written power of attorney, by all means, produce the document. It would be news to a lot of people. I'd love to see it myself.
Moderator, please remove that post as it is deeply offensive, contributes ntohing to the discussion and is inflamatory.
Though I guess it does illustrate the kind of vermin that we are dealing with.
Private parties are paying the medical expenses. You're not going to save taxpayer dollars by killing this woman you know.
Get real. There have been some hearings during a fifteen-year period. It's not a 15-year investigation.
It sometimes happens that you get a sociopath on the bench.
I'm sure they carried stories on it.
How do we remove the Times feeding tube?
How about some DIFFERENT evidence, like an MRI?
