Holly, this isn't directed at you. It is however, my
observation of a large number of folks who have taken
inflexible stands on this issue.

The real problem with the Terri Schiavo case is just like
liberal bias in the MSM. Folks are lining up on which ever
side they have chosen. They are selectively picking only
those facts that support their POV & ignoring everything that
runs counter to their now entrenched POV. They are blithely
ignoring what actually happened in Terri Schiavo's case &
the laws that were in effect that had to be followed.

It has become about what people want rather than a genuine
exploration of what actually happened; whether or not that
process failed Terri Schiavo, whether the process needs to
be changed so that every individual's rights are properly
protected & perhaps that we might be starting down a slippery
slope that opens the door to allowing other less than
competent people to be euthanized.

Instead, the discussion for many folks has morphed into
projecting their own personal desires onto Terri &/or Michael
Schiavo. ET AL. And like the liberal MSM, many of the folks
who wanted the feeding tube pulled are acting emotionally
rather than rationally. They are attacking Congress, the
President & anyone who disagrees with them despite credible
evidence to support their opinions.

JMHO
