Hannity & Colmes recap:
Colmes: "severely brain-damaged..." Who gets to decide?
Lis Wiehl (Fox legal analyst): Terri left no written will. Court must define her intent, legal standard is clear and convincing evidence. They decided to believe the husband.
AC: Bush trying to get involved---appropriate?
LW: Federal judge pulled out, no jurisdiction. Governor is trying to do something he believes in.
SH: This woman will die a horrible death. (Shows video) She clearly responds...does any court have the right to decide she shouldn't live?
LW: This is heartbreaking, BUT...the court has to decide.
SH: Conflicting testimony...horrible death by starvation, you don't see anything wrong with that?
LW: The court has found...
SH: We had the father on, this man is heartbroken. Out of respect for him, why won't this husband grant their wishes...
LW: Court has to decide.
SH: So a woman dies.
Wiehl just said the same thing repeatedly. Maybe just reflex there, not real cognition.

Earlier watching OReilly, the atty for the Schindlers was on with Terri's brother.
The atty said that every option seems to be exhausted.
But she said something I had not heard elsewhere, that there is a Florida statute that states that food cannot be withheld from a disabled adult.
I hope someone is moving on this.

I've personally had just about enough of the mindset that the court has to decide, like this entire nation stops and starts at the whim of a few judges, whether we're talking about this case or half a dozen others lately. We the people means nothing anymore.
If I lived in FL, one thing I would make sure of next election is that Judge Greer is NOT re-elected to another term.
