No matter how much you explain the facts in the Schiavo case, the American people can never get it right.
They just repeat what they are told.
What amazes me is that FReepers who know better than to trust the internet were so willing to believe that Terri wanted to be murdered in the most barbaric manner imaginable. They talk about the horror of Islamofascists beheading people, but at least with that the victim loses consciousness after a few seconds and never feels anything again; Terri's agony went on for thirteen days.
