Feeding tubes ARE NOT "life support" they provide food and liquid. They have been used successfully for thousands of years, the only drawbacks in the past were from infection; however the development of antibiotics has taken care of this. Terri was killed for money, to advance an agenda and possibly to obstruct justice.

Are you saying that they DIDN'T claim she was experiencing euphoria?
Not to mention the fact that the hearsay wasn't recalled until years after the fact.
See my tagline. Greer is a pathetic excuse for walking skin. Hopefully, he'll die the same "beautiful" death that Terri got.
LMAO!
and all I can say to that is that Greer will have to face the ultimate judge in the afterlife and I wonder just what Christ plans to say to hi, or better yet, do to him.
PING
His day of judgment will come in the next.
What in the heck do you mean by that statement???
Judge Greer exercised veto power over Terri Schiavo's medical decisions, and over the jury's decision. He overturned the jury's decision to award the money for Terri's care. He diverted those funds to her estranged husband and his lawyers, for the purpose of overturning Terri's medical decisions.
The state also vetoed Terri's medical decisions. They were charged with upholding her rights, but they trampled all over them.
I do not believe the state, or any government agency, has the right to overturn any citizen's constitutional rights.
Judge Greer is speaking out in favor of the jury system, while standing by his right to break numerous laws in the process of overturning that very system.
We will all be judged on our own merits. I'm glad I won't be judged for a murder committed by others.
This is ridiculous! Greer overturned the jury's decision to award money for Terri's care. He turned that money over to her estranged husband and his lawyers, to pay the costs of killing her. He tried her for what he deemed to be a capital offense, denied her a jury trial, found her guilty, and ordered her execution. Now all of a sudden he believes in the jury system? LOL

That's very cute rhetoric, but it isn't what happened here.
The state didn't make the medical decisions. Her husband did, as is his right and his obligation. That you don't like the decisions he eventually made does not justify sophistry.
I really believe that if you sell your soul to the Devil you do get benefits here on earth. Look at certain politicians.
However - and this is a BIG however - a day of reckoning will come in the next life.
What is the length of a man's life compared to eternity?
A guardian may not make medical decisions for his ward, nor can any guardian make a decision that would cause death or harm to the ward. There are exceptions for guardians who are qualified physicians, but the rule is, guardians are not permitted to practice medicine.
The whole case was framed on the ludicrous fiction that Terri made the decision, as is her right (to refuse treatment). The feeding tube was added by law to life-prolonging devices AFTER Terri's injury, so she could not possibly have given informed consent.
Waal, he made a heckuva lot of money off her before he killed her, too. Other than that, I have no quibble with your comment :-)
He did surely kill her (instead of letting her go with a divorce) in order to keep her potentially multi-million dollar estate.
I wonder what Jodi's estate is worth.
That would account for a great deal, wouldn't it?
