This is almost as beautiful as the heart-wrenching eulogy that the NYT wrote for Terri Schiavo when she had to be "put down." Not.

Sad.
Wrong . Barbero has not covered a mare nor could he unless he could stand alone on his back legs. Registered Thorouhbred rules are live cover only. No AI is allowed.
The hope was that he could recover to stand at stud, but it was not to be.
Don't post your guesses unless you know for certain. You probably don't know the rules of the Jockey Club.
Why is absurd for an owner to spend money on his horse? It is his money not the states and we have private property rights. If you feel the best choice for money is to be spent on human children, then spend your own.
Otherwise this is communist drivel.
Children have more value than horses. You call that sentiment 'communist drivel'. No further comment necessary.
This story is not about abortion. It is about the ending of a great horse. Please don't be so one track that your issue has to be made about any other issue.
Besides we can grieve about any death. It appears to be envious to take issue about the grief over Barbero's death.
You can be sure these past eight months, Barbaro was nothing but a semen factory.
Yes, I get tired of people sticking comments about their pet peeves over unrelated topics. Please post comments totally unrealted to their topics to show why that is irrevelant and tiresome.
No offspring not of live covere will be registered as a TB.
The value of children is not communist drivel, telling other people what to do with their money is.
What have you done for the children today? Besides belittle us, that is.... I'm curious. Can you inspire us with your own actions? Or is your only specialty taking potshots at other people's interests?
Enough Russ,
Leave Terri Schiavo or aborted babies out of it. This story is not about them. Can you accept that?
My efforts over the past years directly supporting kids of US servicemen as well as troops both in theater and at WRAMC are well known by certain members of this forum, some have even helped. None of them are on this thread about a dead animal, which is not a surprise.
Russ? What are you talking about?
So why are you? If you have something better to do?
Children do have more value than horse. True. But do not tell other people how they should spend their own money. That is tryanny.
Just to break your shoes skippy.
DC Patriot that is a pure lie. Unless you know the facts don't post wild guesses. Several people including myself had told why your statement is a lie.
Don't tell me what to tell anyone else, that is tyranny.
And you think 'breaking my shoes' makes you a better person than merely either admiring the horse, or letting people be?
It's a small person who uses the internet as a place to run around kicking people. I don't admire any of them.
Maybe you should follow their lead and have the courtesy not to hijack a thread with your particular pet peeve issue, bunky.
