I was really hoping one of those guys the other night would have said something even more forceful. The three points they should hammer home were hardly mentioned. First, that there was no living will and nothing in writing to indicate what Terri wanted. Second, that as long as her parents and family were totally willing to take ALL responsibility for her, there was no reason to kill her. Finally the most important talking point here that almost no one mentions is the inhumanity of starving any human being to death. You face charges for doing that to an animal. If the left tries to make this 2 year old case an issue in the ‘08 campaign, the GOP nominee had better be very clear on these points.
Excellent points.
Also add the sanctity of life. The first tier candidates agreed that Congress had no right to try and stop the state sanctioned murder of Terri. The second tier candidates were adamant that Terri had a right to live. I am much more interested in the second tier, Duncan Hunter, Huckaby, and Tancredo. They have conservative values and are not afraid to stand by their values.
The governor of a state can commute the execution of a convicted murderer, but the media elite say that one swamp judge has the right to take away the life of a brain damaged young woman, simply because the husband wants her dead.
BUMP! BUMP!
