You KNOW I want on that list! Just be careful typing too much while you heal!
There are those who are "conservative" only on social/moral issues. They don't mind big government, as long as it does what they want it to do.
That occurred to me earlier, as well. I will resist the urge to say anything snarkier than that. (For a change.)
He could go in and bring Terri out alive, and you know it.
Keep hope alive!!
Read what PastorT posted at 105. Who am I to judge, but I don't believe that Carol Wojtyla and Teri will be placed on the same side.
Personally, I'm waiting for a Joint FR/Rainbow-PUSH Ho Justice No Peace March...
Thanks for the kind comment...often, it is we who work in the health care area, ,and see all sorts of things, that in the end decide we want to be let go, when the time comes...
All of us used to joke, that heck, we dont want our children to care for us, we want to have our own ward in the nursing home, as we know all the tricks that the old folks pull to rattle the nursing home staff...(note...I am not being irreverant to the subject of the thread , just trying to insert some respite into a serious thread)....
When my dying time comes, I want it to come swiftly...I dont want any do gooder, inflicting his will on me...thank goodness I have a living will, and have explicit advanced directives, that even a child could understand...
I am still waiting to see the exact paragraph in the U.S. Constitution that granted the Federal Government the power to intervene in a single family issue.
Of course, if you turn three times in a winder-shine direction, while balancing on one foot and during a full Moon, you can find something in the Constitution to support your position.
He was on Dan Abrams talking Terri's spirituality, earlier.
Put me on your ping list as well...thanks...
Who is listening to Fox? A doctor on there says she has less than 20 percent of her brain; she is awake, but not aware.
And he said she cannot recovery. Atrophy and hydrosephalus (sp)
If it rips off the fringe, I will be none the happier.
Our country no longer follows the path set by our founders who blazed it with divine inspiration. The congress, the senate, and even the presidency ('cept for the liberty vs. tyranny overseas thingy) mouth platitudes about things having less importance than life itself. Starving a woman to death ranks up there with the total disarmement of the populace. How, might you ask?
Her feeding tube is a lifeline no less than is our ability to defend ourselves. Yanking a tube from her stomach is no different than grabbing all guns, the difference being that, I'll refuse to lay comotose when they come. I promise to awaken from the slumber that has lasted many long years. And I'll kick, bite, and grab at anything I can to thwart their advance. Power to the people, dammit! And for those opposed: power to the State. Wear it on your sleeve, or better yet, tattoo it to your foreheads.
"Ho" Justice? ;o)
Me, I am, I am. Couldn't stand Joe S after last night. He was cutting of anyone that hadn't drunk the Schindler Kool Aid.
Oops... Fat FIngers. "Ho" should have read "No".
Now I will brace myself for attacks by those who are now convinced that I just called Saint Terri a "Ho". Sigh.
Done!
Sorry, I've been juggling freepmails and the list.
Note to all: If you wanted on, but haven't pinged or freepmailed me, and didn't get the mail from me a half hour or so ago, I haven't added you.
Yes, and even the remaining 20 per cent is not normal, he said.
Most people would not want to live 15 years this way. That is why I find it reasonable that Terri Schiavo would say something that by the latest polls 82% of americans agree with here.
I respect life, I cherish it. I don't cherish the physical processes of respiration, digestion, heart beating. I enjoy living, loving, learning.
Bless Terri, Michael, and the Schindlers, and God bless us all. We are going to need some divine help to get past the bile, and hostility that has occured this past week.
