...65 percent of Floridians agreed with the court decisions not to order the reinsertion of Schiavo's feeding tube.

How many agree with the decree that no attempt be made to feed her by mouth in the conventional manner?

A good point, and a good article.

With a 45 percent approval rating, it's clear that President Bush will need the help of all Republicans to redirect GOP policy initiatives.

Redirect? - This President needs to get his act together. His low approval numbers have been well earned.

IF the reporting that Mikey stopped Terri's rehab (provided for by the malpractice settlement) one month after the money was received is true, then Terri might well have been able to eat the normal way like a champ by now. IF Terri was indeed able to swallow jello and ice cream as allegedly reported by some of her nurses (the ones not fearful of Mikey Shiavo's wrath) WITHOUT rehab, then it's quite logical that she might well be able to eat and swallow normally now.

Probably anyone who realizes she might choke to death?

Uh, she is unable to swallow. That's why the feeding tube existed in the first place.

It is very strange that Greer would issue an order specifically against "providing food and water by natural means" when it has been the court's ruling that she is incapable of swallowing.

I'd bet real money that they don't know about that part.

Most people aren't even aware of no feeding by mouth. Nor do they know she is responsive, or that the evidence she wanted to die is conflicting and far from convincing.
