"So, you want to hold this "kill her" position AND be treated nice? "

You are mistaken. I don't actually have a position on this, except that any action must be legal. These end of life cases are always wierd in one way or another. I am not opposed to people making living wills to decide how they will be treated if in a terminal situation. Neither is President Bush. He signed just such a law in Texas when he was governor.

The question here is a legal one, and that is my only interest in the matter.

So you're sort of an F. Lee Bailey meets Pontius Pilate kind of guy.
I guess I'm more of a results-oriented person.
The outcome to me is more important than the process.
I wouldn't care if a big stork came down and swept her away from MRS, Felos and Schiavo.
Especially if that big stork was a C-130 taking her to a place where she would be protected from these killers and their dispassionate supporters.

Some things are more valuable and more important than obeying the laws of the state. Human life is one of them. If you are only looking at the this issue from the perspective of law, then you are not seeing the whole picture.
