All nine members of the Supreme Court ruled that she had received due process.
What if she showed signs of improvement?
Due process takes well over 20 years for murderers. That's why they die of old age in prison.
Why did Greer have this to say about this?
He just blew it off, called it interesting, while it seems to provide a clue (and that's a dry, humerous understatement to anyone following this case) as to how Terri entered her condition. Michael has had control on release of all evidence in this case, including that which could convict him. What is sicker is the notion that someone could say he's exercising his fifth ammendment rights by preventing such evidence - and he DOES HAVE THAT POWER, as Terri's legal guardian. Now, WHY does he have that power? He's not her husband for all intents and purpose, only according to the LETTER of the LAW.
This,
* that a man could legally kill the wife who is arguably disabled because of previous violence against her by the same man
* that this man, as her legal guardian, has control over the release or nonrelease of all evidence in the case, incl. that which could indict him
is reprehensible to a sense of justice and indicates a weakness in either a) our law, or b) our judiciary.
Finally, I truly question the motives of those who appeal continually to the letter of the law while ignoring the clear spirit thereof.
Rom. 13:3 [KJV] For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:
What happens when the "rulers" (judges in this case) are crooked (and yes, that does happen and the Bible is replete with such instances - Herod, Pilate, Xerxes, Ahab, etc.)?
The "same" folks who gave us Roe vs. Wade and now are citing legal opinions from other countries to justify their bizarre social engineering.
If Terri S. isn't safe, Howlin, what makes you think you are?
Pray, folks. Pray.

And they are ALWAYS right...like using European case law to determine the constitutionality of the death penalty for minors tried as adults n his country? Is the Shiavo case yet another instance of aligning our "collective thinking" with the Europeans??? What next...
