Poor brain dead Charley Reese, by his own definition, also died years ago.

Charley Reese is in a persistent vegetative state. Unplug his feeding tube and let him die with "dignity."

Isn't Charley Reese your hero?

#58..I agree with this post, and maybe I misunderstood your other post to Miss Marple.

I thought you meant Reese had been liberal minded for 40 years...

..He was only with Orlando Sentinel from '71 to 2001.....and a lot of that time was the conservative voice....

..but even before he retired, I'm remembering my shock at his change of politics, insight and rhetoric.

The article sounds pretty rational to me.

Is anyone bothered by the cable shows whipping up the masses into a drooling lynch mob?

I think a lot of cynicism about the husbands motives could be dispelled if it could be reported that after Terri's court ordered murder, he will not stand to inherit a penny of whatever compensation award money still remains.
However, his decision not to seek a divorce from Terri after he had established what is now about a ten year common law relationship with another woman might lead one to suspect that he didn't go for a divorce because, as her husband, he hoped to cash in when she died.

A formerly great commentator, he has proven himself to be F.O.S.! On the side of the murderers. For Goodness sakes!

I think something changed too. He wrote a lot of good columns during the clinton years. Unless maybe he just needs someone to hate?

#65..uh...NO!

I'm thankful the cable news programs brought Terri's plight and this travesty of justice to the public's attention...

Terri Schiavo was denied her civil rights to equal protection under the law. That automatically lets in the feds. Being denied due process is something all libs should be for. Libs and people like Reese are profound hypocrites about this. You'd better believe, as in the Elian Gonzalez case, if it's something they deem helpful to to liberal causes, then they are all for the feds intervening.

Are Charlie Reese and David Brock having an affair?

Nothing short of clear, precise evidence with absolutely no conflicting interests should be required to end someone's life. That standard didn't come close to being met.

In Westinghouse Elect. Corp., Inc. v. Bay County Energy Systems, Inc., 590 So. 2d 986, 988 (Fla. 1st DCA 1991), the court stated: Clear and convincing evidence requires that the evidence must be found to be credible; the facts to which the witnesses testify must be distinctly remembered; the testimony must be precise and explicit and the witnesses must be lacking in confusion as to the facts in issue. The evidence must be of such weight that it produces in the mind of the trier of fact a firm belief or conviction, without hesitancy, as to the truth of the allegations sought to be established [cboldt comment: and therefore also the falsity or inaccuracy of contrary testimony or evidence].

Although this standard of proof may be met where the evidence is in conflict, In re Guardianship of Browning, 543 So. 2d 258, 273 (Fla. 2d DCA 1989), approved, 568 So. 2d 4 (Fla. 1990), it seems to preclude evidence that is ambiguous.

it is odd, isn't it? in the late 90's he started on his known anti-israeli thing and really hasn't let off since...

either he sees much more than we do with our current president, or he is organic, imho. the truth is probably a combination of both, as always.
