Romney’ opinion on the Terry Schiavo case: Let the courts force euthanasia.

On March 10th, Romney was questioned on television about the Terri Schiavo case in which heroic efforts were made by the State and by Congress to save her life. Without his professional handlers by his side to tell him what to say, here what the press reported him as saying:

He’s campaigning hard for support from Republican socialconservatives, but presidential candidate Mitt Romney said Saturday he disagreed with the government’s intervention in the Terri Schiavo case. ‘I think it’s probably best to leave these kinds of matters in the hands of the courts.’

However, this view is consistent with his abortion stance. Forget about the life involved, let the people decide or let the courts decide. Once again, Romney doesn’t seem to understand the moral implications involved here.

When a person isn’t a real conservative, they have a tough time figuring out what to say on subjects that their handlers haven’t prepped them on.

You are dropping quotes all over the place NOT IN CONTEXT AND WITHOUT THE ACTUAL DATES. Mitt Romney met with Terri's brother, Bobby Schindler when the debate was in St. Petersburg, Florida. Further, Mitt Romney intervened and saved Haleigh Poutre's life in Massachusetts.

If you mean this past Saturday, prove it. If you meant some Saturday you can't pin down, FORGET ABOUT IT.
