Nobama: “I am absolutely convinced that culture wars are so nineties; their days are growing dark, it is time to turn the page,” Obama said in July. “We want a new day here in America. We're tired about arguing about the same ole’ stuff. And I am convinced we can win that argument.”

“So ninties” Are civil rights So nineties because we want them restored to citizens waiting to be born?

“We're tired about arguing about the same ole’ stuff.” Because you can't win the argument. You loose the argument every time.

“same ole’ stuff.” Children are being murdered TODAY you sick barbarian.

Why not keep the Congress in session 365 days a year for the sole purpose of intervening in family disputes?

Obama: If I had one thing to do over, it would be to not try to save the life of a severely disabled woman. What was I thinking?

This man is a pig.

The Schiavo Savers simply do not understand, still, how much damage they caused to the GOP,

So-called "damage to the GOP" vs standing in opposition to the deliberate taking of innocent human life.

Hmmmmmmm

That, my friend, is classic no-brainer.

Some of us realize it very well. But we really do not care. Keeping the GOP in business is not what we are about.

I've got to say there is absolutely, positively nothing, zero, nada that I like about Barrack Obama. It's been a long time since I've felt that way about a person.

I a convinced he is a Muslim and that his entire Christian persona is nothing but a charade. Muslims have so little regard for the truth that it wouldn't bother him at all to lie through his teeth about his beliefs. In fact, they consider it just fine to lie about anything as long as it's being done to further the cause of Islam.

I see absolutely nothing in this man's persona that says to me that he is Christian. The Bible gives a list of the fruits of the Spirit, and he displays none of them. As my mom used to say, if being a Christian were a crime he would be acquitted for lack of evidence.

It really goes against my grain to be so negative about someone, but he just does terrible things to my sense of what's right and what's wrong, and what would be good for America.

I am greatly distressed that so many Americans would give any thought at all to having him occupy the Oval Office. But I have no faith in polls, especially when they fly in the face of common sense.

I have to agree with you. That whole Schiavo fiasco hurt the party. It didn’t help it.

If your precious GOP is built on the bodies of innocent victims, I want no part of it, but will instead direct my efforts toward doing as much damage to it as I am able.

Sometimes it isn’t about politics, it’s about doing the right thing.

Yes, I agree. However, should the House and Senate enter into special session when ever their is a family dispute regarding the decision to terminate life support of have an abortion?

If that is not the case, what made Terri more important than the hundreds of thousands of people that have been pulled from live support over the last three years?

Unfortunately, abortion remains perfectly legal, so that isn’t at issue. As for family disputes involving removing someone from life support, the Shiavo case was different because her husband was her guardian and it was argued that he did not have her best interests at heart because he would benefit if she died. I guess her case is a good reason to consider a living will or document stating if you do want to be kept alive. IMO, the judge in her case made very bad rulings and eventually congress decided to get involved. They were not mandated to, they chose to and I believe they did the right thing under the circumstances.

So what made Terri more important that all the other people that have been the subject of end of life decisions which led to a family dispute.

Should Congress get involved in all such cases?

Why not grant Equal Protection to all people on life support so that Congress treats them as equally as they did Terri?

How proud* Sasha and Malia will be of their parents, when they're old enough to know what's going on. Unless, of course, they grow up to be brain-washed Marxist puppets like their parents - who are FOR the killing of children in the womb, and FOR the killing of brain-damaged people, and FOR all the other vile things that Democrats (Totalitarian Socialists) are for.

*sarcasm

So you believe that the Terri Schiavo case was the only time in United States history where there was a family dispute of whether to pull someone from life support?

Dogz is playing with you because it disdains pro-lifers. There is a thin facade of ‘protect the alive unborn’ but in the end the protection is a situational transaction not related to unalienable rights, as the poster’s vacuous-soul posts indicate. This poster has a template of why Terri should be put down and ignores any of the points regarding parents that wanted to care for Terri, any points that support she was not brain dead albeit severely retarded via neglect carried out over years by the very guardian a sick dead-soul judge protected. And there is so much more, but be advised there are dead-soul liars at FR who enjoy the anguish they can generate by insulting the very memory of Terri Schiavo.
