"So why did he not let the parents try and make fools of themselves? "

That's not the business of the court. They aren't trying to prove a point or play games. Your whole point relies on the premise that there is some sort of conspiracy and that Greer had some personal stake in this case. There is no legitimate evidence that he did and if anything I am sure he wishes he never heard the name Terri Schaivo.

Moreover, if the parents were so sure Terri could eat on her own, why didn't they just try and not wait for anybody to give them permission. That way they would show the world. I imagine they didn't because they want to choke her to death. Deep down they know the truth though they are being used pretty pathetically.

Michael will not allow them near Terri with anything that could hold water. How are they supposed to try feeding Terri if Michael physically stops them from doing so?
