"Terri did not have that and there was a 50% chance she did not want to die"

Uh, no. The judge had "clear and convincing" evidence that she wanted to die. You just make this $hit up as you go along? Unbelievable.

"But money must never be part of the criteria whereby a decision is made to terminate a life."

Just arrived on this planet? Not quite familiar with the way things are done here?

We don't quite yet have the socialist country you're dreaming of, but Hillary is working on it. She needs your vote.

So we should keep brain damaged patients alive forever, at no charge? Heart-lung machines, kidney dialysis machines, intensive care, cancer treatments, the whole nine yards?

What a humanitarian you are! What a big heart! You're so wonderful!

(That's what you're looking for, right?)

If we need to do it often enough, someone will figure out a cheaper way to do it.

No need to kill, to save a few bucks.

"brain-damaged"(quoting robertpaulson)

Please try to keep the facts straight. She was brainDEAD not brain-damaged, from the moment of her collapse, according to nathanzachary, who has rhetorically bludgeoned us over and over and over with his supposed medical and scientific expertise, and who is just as thrilled as you that she was put to death. Both of you cannot be right. However, both of you can be wrong.

To futher confuse and confound, A Mayo Clinic Neurologist who got in to see her said she was, in his opinion, minimally conscious, not PVS as the inerrant (acording to you) Judge Greer ruled.

But we have just got to get the facts straight, in order to discuss. Surely all would agree on that? Hmmmmm? Paging nathanzachary? Facts needed on another Terri thread? Bring us your "brainDEAD for 15 years" diatribe? Then robertpaulson and nathanzachary can straighten out the facts?

BTW, a radio news guy kept describing the autopsy, on the day of release, as saying she had suffered from "severe brainDEATH" according to the findings. It was not a slip of the tongue, as he repeated it throughout the day during newsbreaks.

Now I ask everyone, on both sides, how do you suffer "severe" brainDEATH?" Is there a less-than-severe brainDEATH???

So much for trusting that "the powers-that-be", who wanted her dead and succeeded, had all their i's dotted and their t's crossed...
