President-elect Barack Obama has nominated Thomas J. Perrelli to be associate attorney general, according to reports.

You may remember Perrelli, managing partner in the DC office of Jenner & Block, from a few years back.

Perrelli represented Michael Schiavo in the landmark right-to-kill case that paved the way for Mr. Schiavo to terminate the inconvenient life of his wife, Terri.

The innocent in this country don’t stand a chance. They are going to catch hell over the next four years. (I don’t expect the Manchild to be “re-elected”).

Can’t say I’m in favor a right to kill lawyers...

[sodpoodle]

Obama believes that if a life is perceived as “inconvenient” then one should not be “punished” by having to nurture it.

This is apparently true for unwanted partially aborted babies that survive their murder and also for women who survive attempted murder.

Tell us how the life of “Baby Theresa” was NOT a life worth losing...literaly, half, if that, a brain that never became a brain. Remember her parents’ feelings of hope?...can someone please explain whether there was/is/for a soul for Baby Theresa (sp) or not?

This whole thing is a freaking nightmare. Socialist Medicine guy as Surgeon General. “Right to kill people who aren’t doing as well as you” in Dept of Justice.

Wake me up in four years.

I read it wrongly, as did you. But my gut gave me a different instinct.

[caver]

Damn. I thought we had added number eleven to the Bill of Rights. The right to kill lawyers. There can’t be much bad come from that.

[BruceysMom]

Yup, me too.

The unwanted at both ends of the age spectrum, the fetus and the senior citizen, will be at much greater risk very soon. The later affect S.S. payouts, too. The Hemlock Society is pleased.

This must be that 'blowback' that some on FR at that time were prophesying would happen. You know, those moderate elites that were embarrassed that a Republican Congress and/or Republican president would interfere with a county judge condemning an innocent woman to death. I often wondered if any of these who were in agreement the woman had to die cringed even a little bit when it took 13 days for that innocent woman to die.

Right to Kill Lawyer

It sounds good, but I suspect there is some law against it.
