With leadership comes accountabilty. Political leaders in America will not be able to escape that fact after Terri is dead.
Then tell me, where were the gutless dem/libs on this one? Did anyone from the dem/lib side speak up for this young woman? Where were all the dem/libs like hillere, and pelosi and boxer and schumer and all that crowd? They sure as hell were pulling for the terrorists at Gitmo weren't they? Making sure we didn't hurt them?
Why didn't any one of them have the guts to step up to the plate in defense of this young woman? Where were they? They are after all the party of the downtrodden are they not? Aren't they the ones that are always trying to reach out to those in need? Yeah, only when it is campaign time. Words, words and more words.
There can't be any solid dialog here because I'm afraid you just want to blame President Bush and Jeb Bush plain and simple. Nothing will change your tunnel vision. So...Bye.
I think the abortion issue throws them over the edge, the libs...they don't have a leg to stand on, and they could fight better fights if they would just say no to partial birth abortion for a start.
You may be a cub, but your wisdom is mature.
Where are the opponents of the death penalty?
Inmates on death row win more successful appeals every day than Terri has had, and she is no criminal. This is a crisis for the values of this country.
In my experience, the family member with the most authority wins, but it is that person's ethical responsibility to follow the wishes of the patient, or as they best understand the patient. What efforts has her ex-husband made to determine what Terri wants? That's what it boils down to.
