Excellent letters--the two together express the full range of emotions many of us feel right now.
A monstrous evil has been unleashed in our land. We let a county probate judge order the starvation death of a non terminal incapacitated woman in the face of evidence that this was not her wish.The same judge stared down a Governor of a state, who was too afraid to use his Constitutional given power to protect inalienable rights of a citizen.
The men buried at Concord and Lexington turn away in disgust.
Add me to those who are experiencing similar emotions. I would have never dreamt that this could happen in our America. A part of our soul has been destroyed. What has made us great was our morality and charitableness. Our economic, military and technological greatness have all been rewards by G-d for our moral and charitable goodness. What has happened to this goodness? How can we allow a cumming and selfish husband to so alter the soul of our country? Where is the fight in us for everything we have ever stood for? This is just a heartbreaking period for the United States of America, and I, for one, can never quite regard this country in the same great light that I have until now. Many people in our nation will look back on this horrific miscarriage of justice as a watershed event. I will keep on shouting this from the rooftops until someone in position to save Terri finally has the fortitude to act not only in her behalf, but in behalf of so many of us who are quickly losing faith in our country.
BUMP
