In the end, no malfeasance on the part of the husband has been demonstrated other than in false innuendo. Thus, Florida law dictates that he has the final say. Regardless, it still makes great fodder for the R party to use to feed the anti-liberal movement seen of late. Thus, therein is the political interest.

Finally, I read where her husaqnd was offered a million dollars by a private party and the ability to keep any remaining money currently used to care for her if he relinquished his rights to the parents. He declined. That to me suggests his interests are not pecuniary as suggested
Ahh, welcome back Jason. Thanks for this post. There's so much misinformation surrounding this case that it is scary. Randi was discussing it with a caller and she informed that caller that no judge has ever ruled against Michael Schiavo, they have all ruled to remove the feeding tube. All 16 judges in 23 separate instances.
