Now Joe Scar is comparing Terri Schiavo to the guy who wasn't actually in a coma for 23 years.

Sometimes he's so over the top stupid you don't know whether to laugh or scream.

2. You apparently enjoy watching him. I hope for your health's sake you laugh more than you scream.

6. I have one comment
if Terry did not have ir reputable brain damage, and could never wake up, how come she passed away when disconnected from life support. That should have told something right there. If she was just in a coma,without the brain damage, she would have still lived after they took her off support.

7. They removed her feeding tube, she was essentially starved to death.

8. Irrefutable? Disreputable? Irreparable?
LOL, unless you're making an obscure pun, you're gonna have to pick one.

11. She passed away after 11 days because she starved to death
after being disconnected from feeding tube.
And why in the world would anyone be in a coma without brain damage?

14. The comparison is apt.
Both seem to be/have been in irreversible comas have no true means of communicating for themselves. And both are being used as pawns by people with ulterior motives.
