...let there be additional review of the Terri Shiavo murder-in-progress.

It's still not too late. Don't let people tell you she's gone too long now without water and cannot be brought back, she can be.

Now, the court will consider the request for a new hearing, rather than whether previous Florida court rulings have met legal standards under state law, which is what federal courts have done in the case until now.

While they're finally willing to decide whether she deserves a new hearing Terri should be given food and water. Their review would be fruitless if she dies before they can get their thumbs out of their a...I mean, before they come to a final decision.

UPDATE:
It appears the court's thumbs will remain firmly embedded.

My brother is autistic. For the first seven years of his life he did not speak a word. He wouldn't eat or drink if not for the prompting of my parents. He was locked in a world of his own unable to communicate with anyone. Over the years he improved and can remember what it was like for him as a child. Are ones like him next?
