Please note the last paragraph of the above on Haleigh Poutre. Rightly Wesley J. Smith recognizes she received a reprieve as if sentenced to death as a vicious criminal, and that, she was. Note also, DSS has kept poor Haleigh under wraps so the world may not see how she receives her care. They regard her as their personal property even today. At least she escaped the attempts to kill her so far.

CHANGE OF ATTITUDE ON SCHIAVO -- More than two years after Republicans in Washington led the charge to keep Terri Schiavo alive, the leading GOP presidential candidates say they have doubts as to the way their party handled the situation, The Boston Globe reported Oct. 25. Schiavo is the Florida disabled woman who died after her feeding tube was pulled.
Mitt Romney has called the decision of Congress to get involved a mistake. Fred Thompson said he is "uncomfortable" with Congress' actions, while Rudy Giuliani has called it a family matter. Mike Huckabee months ago said, "I wasn't sure how the federal government had a role in all that," while John McCain -- who supported Congress' actions at the time -- now says legislators "acted too hastily."
Bobby Schindler, Schiavo's brother, says he is writing the candidates to express his concern.
"I want to personally talk with them about Terri's case," he told The Globe. "They need to be fully informed. There obviously exists a lot of confusion about my sister's situation."
