Terri Schiavo

How sad is the Terri Schiavo case? And what to make of the players?

The parents are completely understandable. They want nothing more than to keep their daughter alive.

On some level, I can understand how a husband would want to end his wife's misery. That said, however, there is something really creepy about the enthusiasm with which Terri's husband Michael is pursuing her death by slow starvation and dehydration, particularly in light of her parent's desire to maintain her care in his stead. And let's not even mention the insurance policy he stands to claim.

I say grant the husband a divorce so that he can get on with life, and let the parents care for their daughter.
