"There is no denying the absolute tragedy that has befallen Mrs. Schiavo," the ruling said. "We all have our own family, our own loved ones, and our own children. However, we are called upon to make a collective, objective decision concerning a question of law." (CNN.com)

Let me translate this for you: Yeah, it's really bad that Terri's husband wants to murder and torture his wife, but what can we do? It's legal...

What good is a judge that cannot tell the difference between "right" and "wrong" and relies only on "the law" ?? Laws of the land are our attempt to define what we think is "right" and "wrong" in advance, and even the lawmakers agree that we sometimes fail at that. Therefore, we appoint judges to interpert "right" and "wrong" but it seems that judges today are placing "the law" above all else.
