Write your legislator to change it, if you're in Florida

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the legislature passed some law, only to have it thrown out by (you guessed it) a judge with an agenda.

Not that I know of. If the Florida leg. wanted to write a law that says that food and water can only be withdrawn if a patient expresses it to ten different witnesses via carved stone tablets, then they certainly have the power to do so. They didn't. They'd like you to blame judges for the shortcomings of the law, but I suggest you don't buy it when voting time comes - they've pulled that "it's not our fault" business for far too long now, IMO.
