Ms. Schiavo's food has been cut off and her death by starvation has begun. This was preceded by one of the most deluded and hypocritical statements in recent memory. Speaking to Reuters about Congress' efforts to prevent the state sponsored torture-death of an innocent, crippled, helpless woman, her husband's attorney, George Felos proclaimed with religious fervor:

"Tom DeLay and Dennis Hastert are not members of the Politburo in Stalinist
Russia. The state does not own Mrs. Schiavo's body and Congress cannot simply order her to remain alive contrary to her [alleged] medical treatment wishes and court order."
