>> Schiavo, who died in 2005 after being taken off water and food at her husband’s request, received electrode implants but they were not successful, according to The Inquirer. Some experts believed Schiavo was not in a persistent vegetative state.

And just why was the implant not successful, Mikey? Care to tell us?

The brain stimulator implant was a success, said her husband, Mike.

It really frosts me when supposedly learned experts squiggle in the most limp of time worn mantra lies to make their faux points.

It was the 11th U.S. Circuit that ultimately decided the Terri Schiavo case, which held that Congress could not require the courts to continue life support for a woman who had been in an irreversible coma for years. The U.S. Supreme Court then refused to get involved in this matter.

~Snip~

Though the case was not heard during my clerkship, Judge Hughes authored the lower court decision in the landmark abortion case Roe v. Wade. The U.S. Supreme Court later affirmed Judge Hughes' opinion, which remains the law of the land today.

Anger that I didn't know I had - rises up when I read that statement. She was killed by a deliberate act - taking away what sustains life. I know it's not your words, 8mm, but when I see it, I still have to vent after all this time.
