The bill is worded to affect Terri Schiavo only, although others will
try to use it and clog the federal courts. The case will be taken to
the courts, and the law will either apply for all Americans or no
Americans.
Thousands of Americans are taken off food and hydration daily.
Americans who are in better shape than Terri Schiavo.
Who is going to pay for this? Terri Schiavo is on Medicaid, and it
costs $80,000/year to keep her in a hospice. Hospices are the cheapest
facilities for such care.
If this is going to be overturned or we aren't prepared to keep
patients like this alive on the public dime, what the hell is Congress
doing?
All this is really beside the point - what Congress is doing with the
Terri Schiavo situation isn't what Congress' role in govt is supposed
to be. There is a legislative and judicial process in place, in the
states, to handle problems like this. The Schiavo case has been
through that process for 10 years.
Republicans are making a mockery of this nation.
/cue the 'Divine Plan(tm).' That's what happens when people don't
look past the Jesus *****.

Hello, theocracy with a fundamentalist US Supreme
