Your question reminded me of this--


on the record w/greta
February 17, 2005

"FELOS: Well, as soon as the mandate is issued and he's legally authorized to do so, he will carry out the court's order. And you have to remember, Greta, it's not discretionary on his part. That is, it's a mandatory injunction, and whether Mr. Schiavo is Terri's guardian or someone else, the guardian would have to remove the feeding tube.

VAN SUSTEREN: My understanding, though, is they'll lift the stay and he can do what he wants. He can either remove it or not remove it, right?

FELOS: No. No. If they lift the stay, he must remove it. That's the command of the court."

Sooooo, Schiavo didn't petition the court to remove the feeding tube, the court came to him and said; "The law is she starves"? And no one but us thinks Felos is deranged.
