Mel Martinez, who introduced the legislation last week, along with fellow Florida Republican Rep. Dave Weldon. Under the bill, Mrs. Schiavo -- who is incapacitated and has been the center of a bitter legal battle for years between her husband and her parents -- would be granted a chance at federal habeas corpus review, typically only used to review death-row cases before an execution. The bill would allow federal courts -- in limited cases such as Mrs. Schiavo's -- to expand habeas corpus review to incapacitated people who are the subject of a family dispute, have no previous written directive and are the subject of a lower court order to stop their food and water.

Dead is dead. You kill something, it's dead.
Under any circumstance when that is done, without threat to your own life, and with intent and/or indifference, it is defined as murder. How they escape that simple semantic fact here is beyond my reasoning capabilities.
Timothy McVeigh was not starved, dehydrated and suffocated to death, ...why is that then proposed for Terri Schivo in the name of nature's way?
What is the moral and legal difference between just shooting her between the eyes and unplugging her to starve, dehydrate and suffocate? There is none.
Euthanasia is never appropriate for anything, man or beast, where there is not clear and present inevitable threat of a worse death....in the Schivo case what is proposed IS the worse death.
One comment for Congress..DO IT, DO IT NOW, DONT DELAY A MOMENT...STOP THIS MURDER.
