NY Post: Enough!
March 30, 2005 -- POST EDITORIAL

The time has come to let Terri Schiavo die with dignity - and in peace.

The battle over her fate was mostly a noble one, and always a heart-rending one, but it has turned into a circus.

Nothing anyone can do will alter the outcome now. The arrests will make no difference; yesterday's high-profile arrival of the Rev. Jesse Jackson's stretch limousine will change nothing; Randall Terry's publicity-mongering is pointless.

The best of America - two sides fighting hard for their beliefs, using the law, not violence - is about to be overtaken by the worst of America; showboating, paranoia, lawlessness.

Whew! THANK GOODNESS there's a responsible newspaper that wants only whats best, and would never demagogue a tragic issue like this (that, and provide poker games...)

4. True.
It's time to let her go with as much dignity that she can get (won't be much after the media circus). I'm shocked that Johnnie Cochran is dead though.

Clever of the NY Post to jump the sinking ship. Now they have "seen the light." Uh, huh.
