This debate is surreal. It really is unfathomable that there are people arguing on the House floor that an innocent woman should be starved and dehydrated to death.

So true, I'm listening with my mouth on the floor at the depravity of these people.

I agree... What has happend to our Country??

Thank God we have Republicans who will stand up for the helpless and those who can not stand up for themselves.

Just what I felt, unbelievable, nightmarish really.

I was only half-listening a moment ago. Did this last guy use the Elian Gonzalez case as proof that the Federal government chooses not to get involved in family matters? The federal government WAS involved in the Elian matter until the Cuban prisoner riot in Louisiana. All of a sudden, Castro agreed to take back the prisoners for the first time ever, and all of a sudden the Clinton government decides that Elian is now only a state family matter.

I wonder what other countries around the world think of the US through this case? How can we be taken seriously when we punish others for acts against life? This is a very very sad day for us as a country.

Completely surreal! It amazes me to see these people standing up there and arguing FOR the death of a disabled woman whose only "crime" is that she cannot communicate or feed herself (in a "normal" manner)!

If I hear one more person call a feeding tube "artificial life support" I am going to scream. There are thousands of people on feeding tubes who lead good and productive lives. They just are not able to swallow for whatever reason. Many people eventually regain their ability to swallow and the tubes are no longer needed. These death monger Democrats in the House are arguing that people on feeding tubes do not have the same right to life that "normal" people have and it makes me sick. Of course they would argue that this is not true, but it is the message that I am getting from them.

Hey, if it was his own wife you'd find Jim Moran ready to beat her to death with his own hands.

THe Dems, in general, are quite a smarmy bunch.
