WAKE UP PEOPLE!! We can't go around killing everybody that is not productive in our society, including Terry Schiavo. Don't you think that if this hadn't been that big of a deal she would have been let go in peace 13 years ago? No, her parents don't want to see their daughter die at the hands of this jerk who calls himself her husband, who left his wife years ago for another. There is more to the story than just the fact that she's in the state she's in and her husband feels it's time for her to go on. He wants her dead for some reason or another, and for our country's sake, I hope and pray that the feeding tube is reinserted.
It's not that she isn't productive in our society, there are many people that aren't productive. It's that she is BRAIN DEAD. The husband left her after 5 years of standing by her brain dead side. FIVE YEARS. He can't wait for ever. He MAY want her dead for a reason, but you're just assuming that. Most likely, he wants to be kind and caring and let her pass on to a better place. BUT that has nothing to do with politics and congress should never have gotten involved.
Excellent post Kremit!
Now, why don't all those people who down there in Florida, screaming a "right to life"! Go to thier local homeless shelter and help them out, or protest about the horrible conditions of our foster system. They DON'T. You know why? Because, it was not the "IN" thing to do.
IIRC, I seen NO ONE putting red tap over thier mouths with hundreds of thousands of women and children who were being raped and starved to death. You know why? Because, it was not the "IN" thing to do. Do, you all see a trend?
IMHO, these people don't give a damn about this lady. They all are just caught up in the moment. 10 years from now they won't even remember the lady. Hell, the country won't even remember.

Whoops! Now we got doctors making diagnoses from video tape, I can't wait to get sick or really hurt.
