Ok, I should have explained I was being sarcastic. In another post someone said we needed to stop the rancor. I come to the FreeRepublic to learn, to vent, and to sometimes do what CK did. Within conservative thought there is a lot of nuance, and this is a good place to debate it. If I were in Terri Schiavo's place I would want to die, but that is a far cry from believing that gives me the right to hold back food and water till she dies. I am still both highly disturbed and confused on exactly how we got to the place where we can go through a so called legal process where the end game is to dehydrate someone to death. It's almost as if we believe we can create a process in which no matter what outrage we come up with, it's perfectly ok to do what we just did to Terri so long as we followed the process. Sometimes, when you look at results you know the process was wrong no matter how perfect it seemed at the time. I think rancor is good on occasion and CK said what a lot of us feel.
