"ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that absent a stay from the appellate courts, the guardian, Michael Schiavo, shall cause the removal of nutrition and hydration, from the Ward, THERESA SCHIAVO, at 1:00 p.m. on Friday, March 18, 2005."

That's a pretty far cry from simply disconnecting any artificial forms of life support. It's like saying that you can remove the respirator, but if the patient is still breathing on his own once the respirator is removed, you've got to suffocate him.

It is court-ordered euthanasia, pure and simple....Schiavo's anxiousness to do it doesn't matter, it is a direct Court ORDER to Schiavo to do it.


This is now case-law.....algore would call it "controlling legal authority".........and just around the corner are citations of this newly established case-law that will bring forth the era of court ordered euthanasia......this is what the game has been about.....a financial solution for SS, Medicare, Medicaid, Govt pensioners, Veterans healthcare costs, and the profitability of private sector health insurers..........

Excellent way to put it.
