Lieberman on Terri Schiavo

2006: "Save Terri Shiavo"
2009: "Your Health, Your Problem"

Everyone has their own belief system and thoughts on the matter. If you want your wishes followed regarding your healthcare and end of life choices then you better have a durable power of attorney for healthcare giving someone the right to make decisions for you and make sure you can trust them to follow your wishes. It's as simple as that. It isn't a matter of right or wrong but a matter of individual choice for the one lying in that bed.

hE COULD KEEP THE FEEDING TUBE IN HIS family,but its coming out of mine.

Yeah, but so do their duck houses. If it were your family, you would think differently.

this is the most ridiculous controversy ever.

if your brain cannot sustain your body on itself, or even think consciously, then its dead.

this totally reminds me of weekend at bernies..
like, even though he's pretty much dead, lets dress him up in a fuckin aloha shirt on the beach.
you cant kill someone who's dead. besides, it would just be prolonging the inevitable. how long would they want to keep her on it..

All of her humanity was left alive. It couldn't be killed as she was. It couldn't be eliminated by your own lack of humanity.

Again, her mind was gone. There was massive damage to her brain. Her brain weighed only half as much as it should for a female with her weight, height, and age. This was due to loss of neurons.

There were already laws against killing anyone in Terri Schiavo's situation. How many new laws does it take before one of them is respected by the out of control judiciary?

Good comment.
