		<description>"She could respond, talk and express herself."

These are all patently untrue and I suggest you read the coroners report:

Schiavo's brain damage "was irreversible . . . no amount of treatment or rehabilitation would have reversed" it, said Jon R. Thogmartin, the pathologist in Florida's sixth judicial district who performed the autopsy and announced his findings at a news conference in Largo, Fla.

The condition of her brain was "consistent with a persistent vegetative state," said Stephen J. Nelson, a neuropathologist in Winter Haven, Fla., who was consulted by the medical examiner's office.

Her Husband AND LEGAL GUARDIAN wanted her body to die with dignity AS SHE HAD REQUESTED. 

Here's a thought for right wingers - focus on protecting life after birth and before braindeath? There's a lot of opportunity in that somewhat large area of life.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Rich&lt;/strong&gt;, Terri wasn't brain dead. There was a question whether she was in permanent vegetative state or not, but nobody was trying to argue that she was brain dead.

A lot of her friends and family believed she wasn't in permanent vegetative state. She could respond, talk and express herself.

Her husband, who had already two children by another woman, wanted her to die. The judge who her husband had given campaign donatations to also did.</description>

		<description>Whilst I applaud your compassion, she was brain dead - an empty husk from which the person had departed some years hence.</description>
