The Anchoress points out an irony:
FL rancher charged with starving cattle. She also has a link to an article where Ralph Nader points out,

The courts not only are refusing her tube feeding, but have ordered that no attempts be made to provide her water or food by mouth. Terri swallows her own saliva. Spoon feeding is not medical treatment.

To me, that's where the outrage lies.

The WSJ:

If Terri Schiavo's ordeal, and that of her husband and parents, can help our society reach a better understanding of how to deal with these difficult issues, that will be a worthwhile legacy.
