He hates being called a murderer but it didn't have to be this way. He let FELOS, et al push him around.

I don't think he knew Felos back in 1993 when he tried to kill Terri by denying her treatment for a urinary track infection. My perception is that he hired Felos to kill her because he could not. The Carla Iyer episode convinced him of that and it wasn't long after that that he linked up with Felos.

>> Anything short of 13 days of dehydration is unacceptable imo.

That's not enough. Cage him and send him a tour to raise money for battered wives. At each stop, he is dehydrated for 10 days. Then feed him a bowl of lard and a quart or two of pond water. Put his cage back on the truck and move him to the next location for ten more days of dehydration. Bake sales, carnivals, pot luck church suppers -- those are all good places to display him because he could smell all the good food and drink, and he could hear all those doggone Christians enjoying themselves and telling their children what a monster he is.

Maybe he could only do eight or nine days without a bleeding tongue. Maybe he could do eleven. That's a detail. On and on and on, through America's villages and small towns, with but a bowl of lard and a bucket of swamp water to quench his thirst just before his skin sloughs off like a snake's.

WASHINGTON, June 16 - Congress was trying to pass a war funding bill and members were heading for a weekend recess when Sen. Sam Brownback held a rushed subcommittee hearing.

The Kansas Republican, one of the Senate's most socially conservative members, scheduled the session to explore "the consequences of legalized assisted suicide and euthanasia."

Assisted Suicide May Become Newest GOP Issue

"Give me Libertarian or give me....Death Culture," (Patrick Henry, please accept my profound apologies!) Not that I have anything against dem libertarians as I have a few scattered traits myself...

Excerpt

..................

I could tell my question startled Connecticut Democrat Ned Lamont, who's running against Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-Conn.), the war hawk and culture nanny par excellence. We were standing in Lamont's room at the Washington Hilton, the site of the Campaign for America's Future 2006 Take Back America conference. (Someone missed an opportunity for synergy by not booking the American Values suite.) As long as I was a hurdle for the candidate to jump before he could meet some people with checkbooks, I figured I could rope him into the "Libertarian Democrats" debate.

Lamont's first response was a look of wide-eyed, Marty McFly bewilderment. But after a moment of noodling, Lamont said "Terri Schiavo." Sen. Lieberman had rushed the stage when President Bush and Republican leaders were staging an intervention in the tragedy of the comatose Florida woman whose husband and parents disagreed on whether she should be taken off life support. "Sen. Lieberman thought it was the government's job to decide what was right for that family," Lamont said. "He's all right with the government intruding into our private lives. And not just in that case."

It was a good answer. (This judge would also have accepted Lieberman's video game censorship, his support for the Iraq war, or the Department of Homeland Security.) Last week, Markos "Daily Kos" Moulitsas floated the "Libertarian Democrat" idea and sparked a discussion of what the party of Jefferson Davis can do to bring libertarians into its tent. It was thrilling, insofar as anything in Connecticut politics can be thrilling, to find a little common cause with a real Democratic candidate.

Purporting to be not pro-euthanasia in Australia...

Excerpt

...................

DOCTORS, health professionals and family members will be given blanket legal protection under far-reaching death-with-dignity laws to be introduced in Western Australia.

The legislation will also allow people over 18 to make Advance Health Directives, or "living wills", that spell out what care -- if any -- can be administered to them in palliative care or other life-threatening situations.

Under the laws, an appointed guardian will also have the power to decide whether the person should or should not receive treatment, if that person is mentally incapacitated or unable to make "reasonable judgments".

The Advanced Health Care Planning Bill will be introduced into state parliament next week. Members will be given a conscience vote, the first since the emotional and divisive abortion-pill debate in 1998.

Attorney-General Jim McGinty has hailed the legislation as the nation's most progressive laws for the dying and will amend the criminal code to give medical workers protection.

A touch of satire, a "modest" proposal...

Political analysts were befuddled by the final vote tally, expecting the bill to pass easily with Republicans going for their traditional give-the-bank-to-the-rich policy and Democrats voting for a fairness-in-death principle. Dr. Jillian Naikrovek-Todesengel of the Right to Death Association explained "death fairness" this way: "If you're going to give parents the right to terminate their almost-born children, it's only fair to give children the right to terminate their almost-dead parents."

In the end, the vote followed strict party lines.

Democrats were "appalled" by the final bill. "There is no way any decent Democrat could back such a bill," said Senator Edward M. Kennedy (D_MA), "unless euthanasia is made permanent."

TIME for Jeb Bush...

But beneath the surface of Jeb's solid approval ratings lies another consideration. For all the acclaim he gets in conservative circles, there are still questions as to whether his record in Florida — which in reality has been a cycle of sunshine and tropical depressions, from pioneering accomplishments like Medicaid reform to embarrassing debacles like the Terri Schiavo spectacle — could survive the brutal scrutiny of a White House campaign.

Liberals, fools, and their gods, expounding...

Do you think that the Christian fundamentalist movement is doing some genius misdirection, overloading the media with superficial though inflammatory issues such as the Terri Schiavo case and the Janet Jackson 'incident' while downplaying issues such as the federal money being given to religious social service organizations?

Ohmygawsh! She went across the Hudson River!!!!!

>> ... and even further afield from the liberal ideology of which New Yorkers have grown so accustomed.

Accustomed? Well, we do hear it all day long, that part checks out. But one never gets used to the rhetorical twisting, the bombast, the moral degeneracy, the insanity and the sheer silliness of liberals exposing themselves and thinking they sound pretty important.

And she went voluntarily and didn't have to go. Liberals are omniscient in their own minds. They do have an urge to expose themselves, quite literally and not that titillatingly either.

>> "Could you give me some reasons why libertarians might want to vote for you?"

Real libertarians don't vote. To real libertarians, the state is the enemy -- the destroyer of the rights of life, liberty and property. It would be hypocritical in the extreme for them to hold office, take government jobs or even take part in the political process.

As usual for liberals: Change the law to protect the killers and take away the rights of their victims. Mark Australia one more place where you don't dare be sick. You risk your life if you seek medical help.
