It is regularly said that there are two sides to every story.
At least.
So let's consider the devil's side in the Terri Schiavo case.
Fairness calls us to consider the devil's reasons why Terri Schiavo should be starved to death.
Let's be fair and balanced.
Like FOX News.
So...The Top Ten Reasons Why Terri Schiavo Should Be Starved To Death:
1. The devil will be delighted.
2,. Michael Schiavo wants to marry the mother of his two children.
3. The mother of Michael Schiavo's children wants to marry him.
4. Judge Greer's aura of infallibility would disappear if he admitted a huge mistake and reversed himself.
5. The United States Supreme Court refused to take the Schiavo case.
6. George Felos is an agent of "God" demanding the starving of Terri.
7. Others would make better use of the food and water Terri would consume and the bed in which she lies.
8. If Terri receives physical therapy and eventually communicates about her medically confirmed history of physical trauma, Florida's crime and spousal abuse statistics might go up.
9. President Bush won re-election, and the pro-death forces need a human sacrifice to feel better.
10. That stuff in America's Declaration of Independence about an unalienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as an endowment from the Creator was a political promise to be broken after the American Revolution succeeded, not a restriction on the almighty judiciary in an increasingly secular society.
