Greer "will address judicial independence and the civil jury system. He will discuss how the Terri Schiavo case and other recent events impact and damage the civil jury system in America." Huh?!
What jury? What we had was one man condemn an innocent woman to one of the most inhumane deaths imaginable.

"allowing Terri Schiavo's former husband to kill her via euthanasia"
and KILL HER he did. I'm glad they didn't mince words

It's so fun to be told how "lucky" Terri was to be given such a "euphoric" death. (Of course, nobody has yet been able to explain how it is that a "brain dead vegetable" can experience things like euphoria.)

There is no provision in Florida probate law for a jury to determine what before Judge Greer; that decision is strictly a judge issue.

I suppose in Greer's mind Terri's "crime" was that she was still alive.

Nifong will be next year's speaker... on the topic of "damage to the fairness of prosecutors in exacting judgement based on political ambition"
To: wagglebee
Let him enjoy his accolades in this life. His day of judgment will come in the next.

"Judge George Greer continues to travel the lecture circuit despite his controversial ruling..."
Huh? Is there anything in the rules which would prevent him from being invited to speak?

He made the right ruling and hasn't deserved to be raked over the coals the way he has been. At some point enough is enough. Thousands of people are taken off life support in the US every year because they have no hope of recovery or no hope of ever waking up again. I don't see what made this case so different. If anything this was more justified than most of them. Terri had no cognitive ability and had essentially been a vegetable for more than a decade. She wasn't going to wake up. I know some easily misled people on here with good intentions like to pretend that she was able to feel pain and to think some complex thoughts but she wasn't. This was a really stupid case to pick to try to advance the pro-life cause and it really backfired on those who tried to use it. Opportunists like Frist, and Ol' Jeb really miscalculated.

Straw man anyone?

The pack hunt for Nifong's hide is on. There are voices on all sides crying out to intervene in his case in order to give the accused a fair trial. Excuse me, but not long ago, the same voices were in full bay against intervening to give Terri Schiavo a fair trial. Why, they said, it was shameful for the President and the Congress to interfere with a private, family decision for Michael Schiavo to murder his wife!

Only in the minds of those who would give the state veto power over family medical decisions.
