Having watched a half dozen elderly die by this method (struck up a friendship while they were well), trust me when I say it's ugly. They were severe stroke victims, one had clot in the whole leg and died of gangrene.

In all cases, a tray of food was put in front of them at least once a day, just in case they started feeding themselves. Futile, symbolic, but done just the same. I find it horrifying that Terri is denied even this opportunity.

If Terri dies during the manuevering, the Democratic Party will NEVER be forgiven by a large chunk of the voting population. They won't talk their way out of this. You don't realize just how mad this segment is. And yes, I looked at last night's voting.

This needs to be posted dozens of times.

To supoena Terri Schiavo to testify was also purely symbolic.

The GOP have lost their collective minds.

Seems they can cut their Easter Recess short to run into Washington for grandstanding, but meanwhile, the borders are unprotected and Social Security Ponzi scheme continues...and they fret about torturing prisoners with womens' panties over the head.

Sickening display of political pandering to a fringe group.
