• "Ms. Schiavo's condition, I believe, has been misrepresented by the media. Terri Schiavo is not brain dead; she talks and she laughs, and she expresses happiness and discomfort. Terri Schiavo is not on life support." - Ethics-challenged Rep. Tom DeLay, 3/20/05
• "Based on the footage provided to me, which was part of the facts of the case, she does respond." - Senator Bill Frist M.D. gives clinical diagnosis from Senate floor, 3/17/05
