I wish it were a tipping point, but the MSM have shown that they still have power to affect the agenda. Just look at the polls-lukewarm Reps. and principled Dems may run for the hills.

By the way I noticed today that on the talk shows, i.e. Mclaughlin, Mathews, that the conservatives are always conservative pundits-i.e. barnes, Kristol. However their lib counterparts tend to be journalists or editors- mitchel,alter, clift whose jobs are to be unbiased.

So much for media bias.

George Felos is a certifiable wacko. He has made right-to-die litigation his life's work and after listening to him describe Terri as being more peaceful than he's every seen her, I realized he's gone over the edge. He litigates, he wins, then assists his victims over to "the other side." I truly think he has begun to think of himself as God's agent and when he sees peacefulness in Terri, I think what he is seeing is the weird peace he himself feels as the agent of death. I would love to have a few psychologists discuss this. He has the same view of himself as cult leaders have of themselves. Personally, I think the Shindlers could sue him for murder.

I also think Felos has indoctrinated Michael Schivao, which is why Schiavo won't allow the transfer of guardianship. I would say he probably doesn't even realize this - that he thinks all of this is his own idea. That's how good Felos is.

The media is pro choice and they see this case as an issue related to abortion rights. They think Terri's parents and their supporters are a bunch of pro life religious loons trying t enforce their religious beliefs upon Terri, whose wish it was to die.
You will notice the FReepers who are most adamant supporters of Judge Greer and MSchiavo's side are also pro choice Republicans/Libertarians.

Not all, but a lot.
