Of course they haven't, they have an agenda and something as insignificant as the truth won't be allowed to interfere with that.
Perhaps, but slimming!
And whose fault is that?
The Right-To-A-Painfull-Death AKA Right-To-Life crowd.
I would be delighted if she could legally have a pint of morphine and go quickly and painlessly.

The next time we hear about the starving in some part of the world I guess we can all say "But it's a beautiful, peaceful way to die, and don't we all, really, want that?"
Hey, Jeb!
Forget 'Ole Sparky...
Apparently it's much more natural and humane to let death row inmates slowly die from dehydration.
We could cut through all this BS controversy if one of the talking heads (O'Reilly, Hannity, Matthews) would just volunteer to go without food and water for a week. They could report on LIVE TV just how they were feeling, so we could get a more accurate perspective of what Terri is going through. The best part would be when the 'euphoria' kicks in. That would be classic television!
That would make a great reality show, I might even watch it. Especially if they were all put on an island together, without any food or water, we could watch them deal each other.
She was cute before she became grotesque.
I always kind of preferred Jane Krakowski, anyway.
'Bet if she were Muslim, this wouldn't happen.
Not for "everyone" tho.
Not for Terri...
I have gone beyond appalled at this. I can't believe all the courts have turned there backs on this poor woman. I can't believe that the woman who gave birth to Terri is being denied the right to continue to care for her. My heart breaks for this family. And it breaks to see a nation that once was about life, liberty and the persute of happiness. Turn into nothing more than a killing field, where it is ok to kill the most vunerable of our society. The very people we are suppose to protect.
Jesus said, when I was thursty you gave me a drink of water, when I was hungry you feed me, when I was naked you clothed me. When you do to the least of these, you have done it also to me.
My prayers for Teri are that she be in peace. May the good Lord forgive her of her sins and take her to a better place.

Yes, if it's that blissful, why isn't everyone lining up for a chance at it?
(Because it's NOT, because it's a nasty way to have to die!)
And just today I read an article that said the opposite. So who is correct?
Since they wanted to kill her, why didn't they at least do it humanely, with an injection? I don't understand the point of starvation until she dies??? Can someone please explain that to me? Even Kevorkian kills people in a humane way. (Never thought I'd be saying THAT!)
Finally Fla. has found a way to get rid of "Old Sparky", which the anti-death penality advocates find so in-humane.Just starve them to death.The L.A. Times, N.Y. Times,Peter Jennings,and assorted "experts"have stated that starvation is both painless and euphoric.And saving on electricity would please the enviromental folks and also P.I.T.A.[In case the condemned wanted a steak for his [her] last meal.
UTTER BALDERDASH!
I've gone 24 hours without food on several occasions, and was profoundly hungry at that point.
"Total starvation is not painful or uncomfortable at all..
Try executing a condemned murderer by dehydration/starvation and this guy would be screaming at the top of his lungs about "cruel, unusual and inhuman punishment".
