I’m horrified by what is going on in this case: Bush, Congress Set to Act in Right-To-Die Case
President Bush cut short a holiday to return to Washington and be ready to sign a bill that may keep a brain-damaged woman alive in a case pitting Christian conservatives against right-to-die activists.
In a rare Sunday session, the U.S. House of Representatives was to discuss a deal aimed at pushing the Florida case into federal court and restoring the feeding tube that has kept Terri Schiavo alive for the past 15 years.
“The president intends to sign legislation as quickly as possible once it is passed,” White House spokesman Scott McClellan said. “This is about defending life.”
I can understand that her parents and family must feel desperate to keep her alive but if her wish was to not be kept alive this way (which is what her husband contends), then she should have her wish. This is nothing but political posturing.
