Non sequitur. Terri's situation is very different than a baby because:

1. Terri didn't want to be kept alive if she was ever placed in such a situation - babies can't make that choice.

2. Terri has NO chance of recovering and regaining cognitive abilities and hasn't shown any hint of doing so in 15 years. Babies show such abilities from the moment of birth.

3. Terri is ARTIFICIALLY kept alive by having a tube directly inserted into her stomach. Babies are fed NATURALLY through the mouths.


Get your facts straight before pointing fingers.

Each of the points that you claim as facts are actually in controversy. We do not much about Terri's wishes (only the word of a worm of a husband) nor whether she can recover (appropriate tests have not be made). She actually showed marked improvements when given appropriate attention.

You believe that Terri S. must die and manipulate facts to suit your position. Let's just say that you are in a morally difficult position.

Maybe you should get your facts straight.

You don't know what she wanted in this situation.
You only know what some judge said she would have wanted.

Lets face it, some consider her a drain on society so she has to go.

WHAT WOULD JOHN KERRY HAVE DONE?

nothing at all
