After Face the Nation Rant too

No the court isn't being arrogant. No the court is doing it's job, not allowing the government to be in a private battle in a person's life. Who are you Newt Gingrich that you can come in and say what a husband can do concerning his wife's life. If what Terri had was "life" and not just existance. You are being just as bad as Joe Lieberman over the fact that the poor woman wasn't living a real life.
All of you "Religious People" forget what he (the husband) had done for Terri out of his own money before the settlements. The trip to California to put electrical implants in her brain to help promote healing that never happened. All the money he got is gone to take care of her and her needs, not to himself.
Unlike her parents who had a "fund" going to fight to keep her alive.
You of the religious right seem to believe we non religious right see everything the same way and we don't. We delight in being individuals, not sheeple. We like to see ourselves as thinking, loving beings and even when we are angry we allow for others to be themselves.
Honestly I am for the death penalty, choice and "they " say that the left is for abortion, but not the death penalty. So where am I ? I am someone who is more left then centerist, but not so radical that I don't atleast see the other side of things.
Thanks now to Mrs. Shiavo we have all learned the importance of a living will.... and so I say here and now and will write this for my family as well. No heroic mesures, no tubes, no machines. If it looks like I will not be able to live, I mean really live, do things, read, know what is going on around me and to me... then let me die. I don't want to exsist, to exsist is less then life to me.
