Ahhhh Florida again....
Ping to wagglebee thread on another case of euthanasia.
A nine-year-old lawsuit on behalf of Madeline Neumann charges doctors wrongfully took measures to prolong the 92-year-old's life, violating a living will, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reported.
Filed by Neumann's granddaughter, Linda Scheible, the suit against Joseph L. Morse Geriatric Center and Dr. Jaimy Bensimon is thought to be the first of its kind to reach the trial level in Florida.

If George Will says things that are pleasing to liberal ears, he gets reprinted all the heck over the place. Broad coverage like this is a clear signal that conservatives are not going to like everything they read. That's human nature. We are just as happy quoting liberals when (on rare occasions) they say something sensible.
Fwiw, I think his theory on "political" markets is hot air. Real markets are based on exchanges of money and goods, not on mere opinion. They get their feedback from double-entry bookkeeping, not from Will or Stephanopolous. Markets we can trust. Polls and pundits are part of the entertainment industry.

Ping to wagglebee thread...
WICHITA, Kansas, November 9, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline lost the Attorney General race 42% to 58% on Tuesday to Democrat Paul Morrison, a vehement supporter of abortion. In the past few years, Kline has garnered national attention and pro-life support for his investigation into local abortion clinics and their concealment of probable child rape cases and the performance of illegal late-term abortions.
Kline had just recently been granted access to 90 medical records from abortionist George Tillers Women Health Care Services and the Kansas Planned Parenthood clinic in Overland Park. Access was given only after a judge ruled that there was probable cause that Kansas law had been violated by the clinics.

I trust you noticed that the death lawyers were from something called the "bioethics law project." The bioethickers are not just studying and writing and preaching why everybody should love to die. They are hiring lawyers and suing to kill.

I think a lot of people will misunderstand this case. I don't know of anyone who would argue with the right of someone in their 90s and suffering from a terminal illness having a DNR order. But if the doctor is not made aware of that order, it's his moral and professional duty to try to save the person's life.

Iniquity! Iniquity! You are scaring George Felos, hospice workers, judges, and swat teams! Fortunately, police are on guard day and night. Here they capture a so-called right-to-life terrorist, aged 10, and lead him away in handcuffs. Crime: trying to take a glass of water to a woman dying of thirst.

They have a long history of being tough on prepubescent terrorists down in Florida.

When Kansas, as culturally conservative a state as there is outside of the South, supports a pro-abortion Democrat for the Attorney General's office, you have to wonder what hope there is for this country. Hispanics, Blacks, and Jews are relatively small percentages of the population. Other than a few college towns like Manhattan and Lawrence, there is not much representation of so-called alternative lifestyles. Kansas is very much an example of old style, mainstream, white, nominally Christian America.
It may not yet be time to abandon politics and go into the "every man for himself" mode, but election results like this one are not encouraging.
To: wagglebee
Poor little Elian. I wonder how he's doing. Maybe he can come home when El Meano kicks off -- now there's one we should make sure his DNR is in place.
(Always assuming Janet Reno no longer enjoys Waco or swat team privileges. That woman was a practicing death-culter before it became fashionable.)

Breaking story... Mildred was a 93 year-old woman who was particularly despondent over the recent death of her husband, Earl. She decided that she would just kill herself and join him in death.
Thinking that it would be best to get it over with quickly, she took out Earl's old Army pistol and made the decision to shoot herself in the heart since it was so badly broken in the first place.
Not wanting to miss the vital organ and become a vegetable and a burden to someone, she called her doctor's office to inquire as to just exactly where the heart would be. "On a woman," the doctor said, "your heart would be just below your left breast."
Later that night, Mildred was admitted to the hospital with a gunshot wound to her knee.

Meanwhile every candidate that Schiavo campaigned for lost. You might say he is the kiss of death.

We know kid. George Bush got a law passed to help Terri Schiavo, but Bill Clinton has come for you personally.

Come to think of it, no, I didn't. But you see, "intervene" means "come between." Clinton and Reno did the opposite. They "joined together" Elian and his spiritual godfather, Fidel Castro.
So they tore Elian's family apart. Enh. It's a small price to pay for socialist paradise.
