So much for the commitment to marriage.

As Dahlia Lithwick points out, the Schiavo Ruckus shows us just how deep the conservatives' commitment to marriage is: not very. The sacred bond between Teri Schiavo and her husband isn't sacred enough that cultural conservatives mind trashing it to do what they think is best for her.

Comments:

Maybe she would have been cool with that. If I'm ever in a vegetative state, I hope my wife is living her life instead sitting by my bedside all day.
 
Scott Peterson's actions should be respected, then, for the same reasons?

I'm not calling Michael S a murderer here. I'm just pointing to the inanity of your conclusion.

If I refuse to feed you, I'm hardly killing you.
