Terri has never had an MRI.

You two are relentless! If I ever am in need of advocates, would that they be your equals.

The facts on this thing confuse me a little though. Is it true that her guardianship was awarded to the judge who ordered the tubes removed? And if true, how is that possible, how does it impact on her husbands claims over her life, and wouldn't this be just cause for the DOJ to intervene?

Also, how is it possible that his current life with shack-up and kids can't be considered mitigating circumstance in taking him fully out of the picture?

Are you suggesting the Schindler's have permission to have an MRI done on Terri? I'll let them know.

It's certainly a fifteen-year review.

Because we don't like the decision doesn't make it wrong.

So it's not even remotely possible that the courts have come to the wrong conclusion in this case? Do you think Judge Greer has achieved a level of perfection enabling him to always make the right decision? He is a flawed man influenced by his own biases and experiences just like everyone else. Putting that robe on does not make him immune to those influences.

I repeat why do you think Terri has never had an MRI? I'm still waiting for an answer.

And, do you think that you and all of us on the outside are in a better position to make a decision, given the fact that we have not seen or heard all the evidence and testimony presentedand given the fact that most of us are not familiar with Florida law?

I suppose the NYT and liberals will admit that, by their way of thinking, the Federal Government should never have gotten involved in "states' business" in the 60s, when blacks were being denied their rights. I mean....really....the governors and the judges of some of those states made it very clear about........"protecting their state's rights".
Thank God! Our elected representatives in Washington, got involved then. They certainly should get involved now when a citizen's "Right to life and the pursuit of happiness" is being denied in Florida. A "husband", who is openly living in adultery with another woman and stands to benefit monetarily from her death, should be allowed to make the decision as to whether or not his wife should live or die???? Where are the NAGS???
BTW, you can bet the libs and Demos would scream to high heaven should anyone suggest the pedophile, who brutally murdered the little girl in Florida, should be "starved to death". Criminals have more rights than the handicapped.

It's common knowledge. Do your own research. If you're alleging she's had one, prove it. I know she has not had one, how would I prove a negative to you?

No, it's not common knowledge. Regarding common knowledge it was thought at one time the earth was flat. That doesn't make it so.

David Dreyer on Fox a few minutes ago, said we they have something today, instead of tomorrow. Could be good news?

"Liberals have finally discovered states' rights! Eureka! I'm sure it comes as music to the ears of long dead Southern racist governors."

Thank you! You said it best!

Your lack of knowledge of a fact does not refute that fact.


Your "flat earth" sophistry aside, you have claimed she has had an MRI. Prove it.
