I bet that most euthanasia is indeed involuntary

And we care what the Dutch think about a USA presidential candidate - why?

Well, I can’t say that I’ve kept up with the latest statistics, but the Dutch certainly were pioneers of the euthanasia movement. And I’ve read of several cases of involuntary euthanasia, where neither the patient nor the family agreed.

There was one case fairly early in which a doctor killed his patient so he wouldn’t have to wait around and miss the start of his vacation.

The Netherlands has long been a lesson for those who think that euthanasia can be totally “voluntary.”

I’d say that the Dutch are yapping because Rick hit them where it hurt.

From the Article: "The most conservative of all the candidates in the Republican primary race. He loathes abortion and euthanasia."

I think Newt Gingrich also loathes abortion and euthanasia. And I'm pretty sure Ron Paul does as well.

Heck, Romney would even say he opposed abortion and Euthanasia. so it's funny that these foreigners have no clue how decadent their country has become.

Just thinking..wouldn't it be wise to FIX the US problems first, Rick than making dumb remarks to where one sets themselves up in a big poo-poo dilemma. He is not prime time ready. Imo.

I guess that means Newt picks up the delegates from the Netherlands.

Here’s the problem. If Santorum runs as Saint Rick, and he’s already being tagged that way,he will turn off all those who are sinners. There’s a lot more of those people than saints. Then you get nothing.

A bit of balance is perhaps called for.

I really don’t give a smelly Obama about whether or not they object to our labeling of their practices. ‘Twould be better for them to worry about Islam.

Any "assisted suicide" by an elderly person with even mild dementia is euthanasia. Ditto for the mentally handicapped.

I saw a documentary a number of years ago about the Nazi euthanasia program and how it was promoted through propaganda films like "Life Without Life". The arguments for this mercy killing were always that it was what these people would want rather than to have a "life without life" and of course the money to be saved by not caring for this burdensome population. Obama adviser, Dr. Ezekiel Emmanuel and former Senator Tom Daschle make these same arguments in their health care plans.

True or not, Santorum needs to stick to economics.

So Rick upset the Dutch by calling them out. Big deal. I don't really care what people wearing wooden shoes have to say.

Aren’’t there a lot of Dutch related people in Pennsylvania, where Santorum already lost reelection?

This is funny.
The proud Dutch have allowed their country to become overrun with Muslims and dope and they're pissed at Rick for mentioning the obvious ?
