Well, come on!

What Mr. Sowell doesn't realize is that Greer states categorically that it's painfree and an overall cakewalk, based on unrebutted medical testimony. Got that, unrebutted medical testimony!

Sheesh, if you don't get it Mr. Sowell, intelligent, self-effacing, overall wonderful gent that you are, how do you expect the disidratti to get it?

I know a million words have been written, but here is a thought of mine:

A policeman is in Terri's room at the back of Terri's family when they visit----to make sure no one gives Terri food or water.

But the left says that Terri can only eat via feeding tube---this is the basis for their claim she is on life support.

If she is unable to take nourishment orally, why are they worried about someone giving her a drink of water?

PING!

People who say that the government has no business interfering in a private decision like removing Terri Schiavo's feeding tube somehow have no problem with a squad of policemen preventing her parents (or anyone else) from giving their daughter food or water.

Of course, if Terri Shiavo is in as bad a condition as her "husband" and others say, she wouldn't be able to swallow the water & might even choke to death on it.

I don't see the problem with giving her a sip. Even if she choked to death, at least it would be fast, not a prolonged agony.

Hear hear, Dr. Sowell!

Well said and so true.

This is no states rights issue as purported by the MSM and many misinformed posters on this forum.

It is a case of government sanctioned killing by starvation.

Look out America, what can be done to Terri can jump up at any time and bite you in the butt.

Ping.

What is being kept alive artificially is the liberal media version of events. One side of this story is being repeated endlessly, as if it were gospel, but anyone saying something different -- including doctors and nurses who have actually seen or taken care of Terri Schiavo -- is unlikely to be reported.

As usual.

He has said what I've been posting most of this week.

God help this Country is no one, if President Bush or Governor Bush or the director of CFS has the grit, determination and b@lls to stand down this arrogant Judge.

The nature of death by starvation and dehydration is also being depicted as "gentle" in the words of the New York Times -- the same New York Times which in 2002 reported starving people in India dying "clutching pained stomachs."

Yeah, I remember the MSM standard line was when Clinton broke down the doors of Elian's home in Miami, and snatched the frightened child in order to send him to his Daddy who is owned and lives in Castro's hell hole, that Elian is so happy. See the wonderful pictures of him playing. He was never happier. Yep, happy juice would do that to a kid wouldn't it?

This article by Thomas Sowell is exceptionally good.
