What arrogance......you don't know what you would do if you or your family were in a similar situation, but you are adamantly against it for a stranger, and then only for political reasons....

No, for moral reasons. Apparently you're unable to understand that. Terri Schiavo did not choose to be put to death.

Typical RW Christian.....will accept 100 + year old anecdotes to decide a human is a god, but will disbelieve a husband who says his wife would not like to stay alive on a feeding tube.

Because I don't believe him. He said differently when he thought a lot of money might be coming in a suit. Then he changed his mind when the amount was modest.

"There have been people kept alive on feeding tubes for years who have recovered. Being on a feeding tube per se isn't a big thing."

Any with their brain destroyed???


There are plenty of brain-damaged people being fed by IV. People sometimes live in comas for decades. Some recover, some don't.
