sadistic society

When the inevitable result occurs and the court as previous courts have done permits the removal of Ms. Schiavos tubes and allows her to die through starvation and dehydration. Will the august thinkers in congress revisit this issue and allow some one who has made it clear they don't wish to be kept alive under similar conditions to pass away through an overdose rather than painfully dwindling away. I doubt it , republicans who theoriticaly stand for individual rights won't because they want to be re-elected by fanatical right wing religous zealots and democrats won't because the haven't got the guts to say that people have a right to live and die as they wish and not as the government decides. These congress people don't even realise what sadistic know -nothings they are.
