Terri Shiavo has Died

A sad day has just begun in the United States. The courts successfully killed a human being based upon their judgement that that life was not valuable to society.

This makes a severly harmful precedent in our government institutions which must be fixed immediately.

Peggy Noonan recently stated that if Schiavo were to die, it could be disasterous for Republicans in the polls. I believe that unless Congress, the President, the Florida Legislature and Governor and Legislatures and Governors in every state take a strong stand to balance powers by reducing the current influence of the courts, there will be political consequences.

Despite the fact that polls seem to indicate most Americans supported the removal of Terri's souce of food, when the facts are presented, people know that this was a horrible act of cruelty.
