"And the idea that now the President or the Governor will now order TROOPS, fer the luvva Mike, to deal with this is delusional."What I don't understand about all the "send in the troops" types is why they aren't demanding the same for every similar case in the country. The Schiavo case is only unusual in that it's a humdinger of a family feud. Why does she warrant all this attention from the crusaders, hucksters, lawyers, and politicians when there are plenty of other people slipping quietly away from precisely the same reason: removal of feeding tubes?
