It's obvious that the martyrdom of Terri Schiavo is a satanic ritual. It's supposed to culminate tomorrow, day Jesus Christ died.
I'm sure many of you also have understood it. Instead of continuing listing the details, I will let you do it yourselves.
It was really bizzare, I'll say that.
YES! There we go! :o)
Woo. here we go!!!
He's an asshole.
It is time that we balance the three branches of government once again.
Oh my goodness!
LOL
Howlin and Trinity_Tx have organized a ping list; get on it!
I say we re-write the bylaws. No more Nazi attacks. Those who make it, lose the argument. LOL
Me too...
LOL!
It is so nice to find a SANE thread.
The notion is repugnant and sick, and it serves to illustrate why libertarians will never be taken seriously by decent and morally aware men and women.
Ditto that, Long Cut. And it's mostly
who has done the hard work on this and
deserves all the credit.
What an embarrassment you all are becoming!
You couldn't be succincter about a sphincter like Randall.
In times of crisis, you learn a lot about yourself, but you also learn alot about the people you're with. You discover different sides of them, sometimes sides you'd rather not have seen. This has been one of those times. The last week has seen people throw common sense and basic human empathy into the dumpster.
This sort of thing used to make more sense to me. When I was a liberal, I felt that everyone at heart was some combination of cruel, stupid, ignorant, and selfish. After the last week, I'm wondering if I wasn't right all along.
People are coming out of the woodwork to reveal themselves as either wild eyed conspiracy minded lunatics working the 'Terri is Jesus' angle, or cold hearted bureaucrats who would send their own grandparents to the ovens if presented with the right paperwork. There are quiet voices trying to debate the issue rationally, but they're being drowned out by the roar of a thousand grinding axes.
The left couldn't caricature conservatives better than what we're doing right now. Our circular firing squad is doing some top notch shooting.
Ping
We have a SANE thread here with a core group of people who aren't willing to see FR taken over by the radical right.
If you want on a ping list, see Howlin. Hope to see you and you're doing okay!!
You know, I have thought about this, we say we would choose death over ,,,,{fillin the blank} but from what I have seen it is very very hard to do it for quadraplegics and paraplegics. They get depressed as hell, some get permanently sort of miserable but others dont and very few request to die.
Just an observation. I have seen few people who aren't terminally ill with cancer, give up on life willingly. Unless of course they are very old. And tired and resigned.
My feeling is if I were Terri I would want to die. But if one is going to be left to die, starved, why not use a lethal injection. Same thing, only more honest if you ask me. Why preserve the idea that nature is taking its course for one's personal comfort when all know killing her is the plan.
No, what we need to do is just talk among ourselves; no need to attack anybody; after all, that's why most of us are here.
Remember what Hunter S. Thompson said:
When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.
