"U.S. Judge in Schiavo Case Withholds Ruling on Feeding Tube
March 21 (Bloomberg) -- A federal judge declined for now to order a feeding tube reinserted in Terri Schiavo, the brain- damaged Florida woman who has been in a vegetative state for 15 years.
U.S. District Judge James Whittemore, after hearing arguments for about two hours in Tampa, gave no indication of how soon he may act on a request by Schiavo's parents to order the tube inserted.
``I will not tell you when, how or how long it will take,'' Whittemore said."
Bush could have signed the Schiavo legislation in Texas, but preferred to cut his vacation short and make the dramatic trip back to the White House just for this occasion.
To recap, Osama bin Laden, Israel, war, and devastation? Vacation on. The religious right wants action on a woman who has been in vegetative state for 15 years? Vacation off. The man has his priorities.

RWNJ, this judge is surely dragging his feet. Are there any other recourses if he says no? Heard Randall Terry is in Tallahassee (sp?) to drum up support for a bill for Jeb to sign. If this judge says no is it all over? Marine Momma
levi, maybe he wants to see a beginning pattern of either no therapy or that she is not brain dead? I did think that he'll drag this out until she does die. MM
"Terri died 15 years ago," Schiavo said, referring to the collapse and cardiac arrest that doctors say virtually destroyed her brain. "It's time for her to be with the Lord like she wanted to be."
Now why didn't he think that during the malpractice suit?
I see that Anon mouse is being busy again with the silly and less than truthful opinions.
Terri did not die 15 years ago, but I feel certain that M S wants to think that way to justify his attempt to complete the job that he started 15 years ago.
If he thought that she was dead at that time why did he pursue a lawsuit to take care of her? Wait I know the answer to that question: MONEY. He wanted to make something from the woman he hates so much that he denies her every possible comfort to help with her disability.
Terri is not brain dead. Terri is not dead. She is alive. The court does not have the right to sanction the denial of basic needs such as nutrition and hydration.

Funny how democrats will conviently read the constitution to include international opinion, but won't use it in Terri's case.
Also, here is a link to Terri reacting to Mr. Schindler after her feeding tube was removed.

I just heard Terry on Hannity. He was calling the judge a she. What's up?

Levi,
The judge obviously doesn't see this as an emergency, or he wouldn't have waited until 3PM to even hear the case.
That's my take anyway.

I don't think anyone played it straight during the malpractice suit. Isn't that also the suit where the Schindlers agreed with the PVS assessment?
