ST. PETERSBURG, Florida, Feb. 27 /Christian Newswire/ -- In a presidential debate last night, Sen. Barack Obama, (D-Ill), said, for the second time this year, that he regretted supporting federal legislation aimed at saving the life of Terri Schiavo. He even suggested the legal efforts to stop Terri's death by dehydration and starvation constituted a "costly" action.
"We welcome the opportunity that Senator Obama has given us to once again strive for clarity regarding the death of our beloved Terri," her father Robert Schindler said. "However, we are very saddened by his remarks. Everyone with a disability, or who knows someone with a disability, should be outraged that a potential US president would so callously reject his own action taken in favor of life over death."
Terri's Foundation wishes to remind all Americans that the Senate gave unanimous consent to the effort to save Terri's life and that the vote was strongly bipartisan in the House. "As a country, we should all be distressed that doing the right thing suddenly becomes a 'mistake' when one poll later showed it to be unpopular," Schindler said. "That isn't leadership; it's pandering to popular prejudices."
"Is it so incredulous that a family had the 'audacity of hope' to believe its government would care about one profoundly disabled woman?" Schindler asked. "It is a shame that Senator Obama, who claims to embody 'hope,' is crushing it for the families of people with profound disabilities."
Terri was neither terminally ill, nor comatose. She was not on life support and only needed food and water to live. Persons with disabilities, no matter how serious, are persons with the Constitutional right to life.
"Highly visible public figures, especially those who may one day speak on behalf of all citizens, should not imply that some citizens are less worthy than others," added Schindler. "As President, would Barack Obama stand for all of us or just some of us?"
And that is ALL the left knows.

Obama didn’t vote for legislation to protect newborns who survived abortion, either.
"We will not be silent. We are your bad conscience. The White Rose will give you no rest."
I know.
He’s anabortion extremeist. He supported making partial birth abortions legal.
“I’m having visions of an Obama Presidency and mindless mobs doing his bidding on the street, leapfrogging over the Supreme Court and due process.”
Those mindless mobs will run into some very well-placed volleys from a sizeable number of American citizens who will not be enslaved.
Hillary and Obama had an argument a while back, in which each of them claimed to be the best supporter of abortion.
Obama wins.
He supports partial birth abortion. He voted three times in favor of killing infants born alive during attempted abortions. And he supports killing innocent people in hospitals or nursing homes when their care becomes too costly.
No surprise there.
Sorry, South Africa has is moving to America. Anyone who supports partial birth abortion surly knows no mercy.
They won't need to leapfrog - - the Supreme Court, remade in B. Hussein's image and likeness, will beat them to it.
You really have to ask?
Socialism Kills. Get it through you head, people!
The only way Socialism can exist is by elevating the state above the citizen. Once that happens, all rights, starting with life and moving on from there, are no longer respected.
Once medical care is socialized, decision making such as was done in the case of Terri Schiavo will be an everyday occurance. Medical "ethicists" will consult flow charts and tables to determine who the goverment has decided should live and who should die in the name of cost efficiency.
Yes. Obama’s “church” is the church of black power, modeled after the Black Muslim movement, which it greatly admires.
But his church is also the church of abortion. According to articles posted here earlier, obama voted three times against the Infants Born Alive Protection Act because his church owns a hospital where late term abortions and born alive abortions are practiced.
That’s not my definition of “Christian.”
Fabulous press release!!!
This is one of the most effective pieces I’v ever seen -
especially in revealing the wickedness in the heart
of this evil man.
God help us that we are faced with potential nominees who
so haughtily shake their fists at Almighty God!
Read this, it’s Obama’s speech to PP back in July, it is sickening.

I think that it has to do with the Golden Rule. He with the gold, rules.
I've commented several times vis-a-vis Social Security and Medicare problems. Many "progressives" see the cure in Hillary Kare or Barack Kare. Then I discovered that someone right here on FR has done the research. See below.
Clinton/Obama arden supporter and contributor George Soros founded and funds the Project on Death in America (PDIA), now toned down to "palliative care." Think that Soros has no influence on the health plans of Hillary Rodham Clintion and Barack censored Obama?
One could, to be fair, argue that Soros' heart is in the right place as this Time article describes PDIA, "Moved by his parents' death and the belief that most Americans die badly, he created the Project on Death in America, to which he has committed $20 million in an attempt to improve the care of the dying and to bring death out of the closet." See TURNING DOLLARS INTO CHANGE. Monday, Sep. 01, 1997 By WILLIAM SHAWCROSS/LONDON.
But take a look at what someone who's done the research has to say.
.. and in the Democratic Party it precedes Soros:
NY Times, Published: March 29, 1984 - "Elderly people who are terminally ill have a 'duty to die and get out of the way' instead of trying to prolong their lives by artificial means, Gov. Richard D. Lamm of Colorado said Tuesday . . . ." Complaints from Mr. Lamm resulted in this NY Times corrected version: "We've got a duty to die and get out of the way with all of our machines and artificial hearts and everything else like that and let the other society, our kids, build a reasonable life . . . .[I was] not beating up on the elderly."
The ones judged to be terminally ill have a 'duty to die and get out of the way' I think that it's called "palliative care."
Here’s some more on Soros and the culture of death:

bttt. Barack Obama is pro-abort and pro-euthanasia. They’d have to re-write the Oath of Office for him since most of it would be not applicable “protect and to serve”.

I think things are going from bad to worse FV.
Things seem to be getting worse. On a positive note, I’m sending gobs of voters to free republic to politically stop Obama. I’m not voting for McCain but I can direct people away from Obama I hope. Democrats who are pro-life should leave now. We’ll have to weed out RINOS one by one to get the GOP back on the right track.
He’ll also tax businesses and Americans to death. We’re gone one way or the other w/him.
What a deathbot Obama is. Reminds me of: www.judgegeorgegreer.com.
It was costly. I went through boxes of magic markers and poster board, made lots of long distance calls, worked on an election which was rigged, took lots of photos, etc.
I WOULD DO IT ALL AGAIN. Take that, deathbots. It was WORTH THE COST. As Terri said, "Where there is life, there's hope."

George Soros must have a major god complex.
64,900 for barack obama terri schiavo
He's a sweet-talking radical.
Things are getting worse. I have American Idol on and the girls are really awful. Seriesly awful.
Who is going to expose and rough this Hussein Obama up? When is his radical, far left agenda going to be brought out into the glare of scrutiny for all the country and all his stupid, brain dead bovine followers to see? SOMEONE HAS GOT TO DO IT!!!!
The Party of Death.
The Terri’s cannot vote, ergo they are useless eaters.
We are witnessing the dumbing down of America. They want illlusion. If that’s what they want, that’s what they get. Then, they’ll expect the tattered republican party to fix the mess. They’re on such sound footing themselves. All I can say is “hang on and be prepared.”
Excellent advice FV.
