If You Were a Democrat

She move's her eyes, when they pass that balloon over her face, and smiles when they talk to her. To me that is NOT a total brain dead person? This case makes me angry. Where do we stop? She is not on life support, that to me is a respirator, there are a lot of people who are on feeding tubes. People who are anorexics, babies who are premature, and on and on. This is just wrong to starve a person to death.

There are certain funtions the body is capable of without the brain actually "telling" them to do it, "consciouly", i.e., breathing, heart beating, even the dead can "move".

The "eyes", plural, it only happened once, means absolutely nothing, and if she smiles, babies do that when they have GAS.

This was what I was talking about Shattered. "More to it". If they've got something on the husband "legaly", then charge him. If not, get off his ass. Last I knew, it wasn't "illegal" to be an asshole. And the fact that he's an asshole has got nothing to do with MERCIFULLY letting a brain dead, drolling, shitting herself, vegetable, die.

If I laid in a hospital bed for fifteen years being kept alive by people that had some kind of morbid fascination with my brain dead body, when I finaly did die, I'd come back and haunt the shit out of you twisted people.

Anyone who thinks Terry is going to MAGICALLY recover needs THEIR head examined.

Nobody is ever going to just "magically" recover. Nobody is even implying that. However, there are specialists out there that stated she *can* be rehabilitated with work. Why won't Michael ALLOW it? Why did he allow her to lay there with no treatment for years before he finally remembered what he "thought she would want"?

Also, he's not "mercifully letting her die".. He's starving her to death.. She's still alive, and functioning without the aid of anything - No life support, no kidney machines, no medication, NO NOTHING - she just hasn't eaten of drank SINCE FRIDAY! She's being starved and dehydrated to death.

C'mon.. This isn't rocket science.. Everyone is condemning the wrong person, and it's frustrating as hell.

Give her back to her fucking parents. Let them pay for her treatment. They'll be more willing to let her go if they can see it's not working, but they need to let someone try first.

Christ. Nobel prize winning doctors have said she can be rehabilitated if Scott would freakin let anyone hear her.

BTW, people would "get off Michael's ass" if he'd do the right thing.. Have you read *any* of the stories/articles on this case, or have you only read what's been posted here?

My *first* opinion was based on what I'd read in a newspaper I'd happened to pick up at a restaurant.. My first opinion was "Ok, she's been like this for about 15 years.. It's time to let her go. Time to move on.." But, something made me dig deeper, and read farther.. I'm glad I did.

As soon as she mentioned wanting to split up, she had an "accident"...thus finding herself in her current predicament.

The "husband" doesn't care for her, won't allow anyone else to care for her, yet goes galavanting through his life without a care in the world. When she finally does die, who gets the insurance money? Certainly not him if he'd divorced her.

This asshole is no better than Scott Peterson, IMO. :fu2:

I agree shattered, difference is Michael has the support of the courts to kill his wife. SICK!!

This is a travesty of the justice system. I hope if she does die they can atleast get a court to estopp the creamation so they can find out the truth about what happened to her.

Avatar have you read what judge Greer's actual qualifiacations are? I almost threw up when I read that he was elected after serving on the zoning commission. Right, he's a state judge with no prior experience in consititutional law sitting on the bench because he was elected. And he's the one who mostly made rulings in this case.
There is a petition in Fla to have him impeached for at least 20 different violations just in the Terri case.
It's almost surreal!!!!!!!!

That's the point, really. It shoots his "I'm about what's best for Terri" argument right through the head.

BTW - EXCELLENT article, PR. It goes straight to the heart of the left's motivation, to wit: There is no hard and fast concept of right and wrong; there is only what is EXPEDIENT at the moment. What was heinous yesterday might be saintly today - check your DU talking points before you utter a WORD!

And just for the record Shattered, "how does one get rehabilitated when their brain is dead"?

Typo. Michael.. I'm getting irritated, and it's coming out in typing mistakes.. I compared Michael to Scott Peterson in another post.

Sorry.

(But I think you knew that, and were just trying to rile me) :)

One would think that since you're so much older than me, and have had much more practice, you'd be better at it by now. Sheesh. :tng:
