Saw a letter to the editor today in a (gag)Seattle newspaper. Said it was the fault of pro-lifers that Terri had to suffer, because we refused to allow assisted suicide.
Pretty funny since the "assisted suicide" would have been more like "assisted murder".
They just give themselves away every time.
I only wish all the evil rats who have twisted this case would have the opportunity to experience a stroke of the ventral rostral pons. Maybe if they could just experience it temporarily the jackasses would grow a heart.
There really is no validity to the criticisms. The preamble to the Constitution says it all. As does the Declaration of Independence. The purpose of the United States Government is to protect the natural rights we have, as given by our creator. It's not a paradox or hypocritical. It is a fundamental aspect of the United States Government to intervene in our lives in order to protect our lives. That is why the government must save Terri Schiavo. That is why the government must stop abortion. That is why tens of thousands of Union soldiers gave their lives to end slavery and preserve the Union.
Terri Schiavo Slippery Slope:
*The Left and Right Unite in Agreement on Death Penalty!*
After Terri dies, the LEFT agrees to put feeding-tubes in everyone on Death Row, and then yank the tube out and watch
the inmates die!
(It's so peaceful, you know.)
It's not a DEATH Penalty...
It's a PEACE Penalty!
And to think, the Clinton-Appointed Judges
started it all!
Now, that deserves a Nobel Prize!
Some? Some?
Conservative Republicans should be ashamed. Limited government, federalism, and an opposition to judicial activism were once hallmarks of conservatives.
Not any more.
It's very apparent that big government, no states rights, and activist judges are just fine and dandy if they favor the conservative agenda. The only time those things are bad is when they favor the liberal agenda.
Just posted a thread breaking on CNN that there has been another appeal sought by the 11th Circuit Court.
Not sure where to post breaking news when it is changing. Threads get pulled a great deal. Some with great comments.
Husband says last ditch effort.
When is it time to stop?
"How can you cite the Netherlands as an example "
I thought it was the perfect example. The Netherlands and Sweden are the spearhead of all evil surrounding morals. He said that it would bring us to the same moral status as the Netherlands, in general.
Im sure it wont take them long to legalize murder, its becoming more anarchist by the day with gay marraige and legal drugs.
Whose behind all of this?
Clinton-Appointed Judges who REFUSED to hear the parents
side!
*Death of Terri Schiavo = Clinton's Legacy*
(And we thought it was just about sex.)
--Life, Liberty and The Pursuit of Happiness--
One down.
Two to go....
LOL--I love it!!
Just like "pro-choice" is the same as "pro-death"
Why waste time putting in feeding tubes? No difference between what they are doing to Terri and witholding food and water from inmates on death row. The only real difference would be all the lawyers lined up to represent the inmates.
Because that's the part that enhances Euphoria!
NEVER FORGET
Clinton-Appointed Judges created this monster.
And a President Hillary Clinton will surely clone
the creation.
**Clinton Term 3 = The TERRORS Begin**
Moral Absolutes Ping.
I am so very heartsick that Terri was not protected by the government, whose basic duty and responsibility is to protect the life and liberty of the citizens.
This is a terrible corner in history. If we keep sliding in the direction towards government authorized - nay, mandated - murder - of innocent citizens, no one can even imagine the horror ahead.
The situations posited by the author are just the prelude.
Let me know if you want (back)on/off this pinglist.
Study deeper into the War Between the States, a.k.a. Civil War before making such an uninformed statement. In fact, that war had nothing to do with the protection of people's rights. It was about states' rights to seceed from the Union. In your reasoning, exactly how would the lives of people who wanted to be free from what they saw as opression be harmed by forming their own government? Actually, the northern economy was at risk of losing the lucrative natural resources and agricultural production of the South. It was a war of economics by force. Slavery, though an issue, was a minor one and not the primary reason.
I guess you haven't lurked on FR long. It is indeed legal in the Netherlands to kill babies after birth if they are considered hopelessly terminally ill or defective.
Despite your screen name, you are spectacularly uninformed about the culture of death.
