Evidentially, you've not had the heart rending experience of holding your fathers or mothers hand as they lay dying from a terminal illness. I've done both. You are a fool if you think the government should have a role in the decisions made at the end of life. And yes, end of life is a medical term, the point at which medical science no longer has any treatment options available. I am probably the most conservative person you will ever meet. Conservative does not mean abrogating family decisions to the government. You want the government involved in the end of life decisions, would you also let the government tell you when to start a life, like deciding when you and your wife could have a baby, or maybe the government could decide that the baby your wife is carrying is defective and should be aborted. In fact, I guess you support Pelosi’s failed contraception millions to “help the economy through limiting the number of children born”. There's you government telling you how to care for your family.

You are a fool if you think the government should have a role in the decisions made at the end of life. It is a GOVERNMENT COURT which is ordering her death, just like what was done with Terri.

Hey troll, we ALL need food and water.

That's the funniest thing I've ever heard.

Actually, I took care of my mother for 5 months while she lay dying of cancer. I’ve sat by a hospice patient as she died. I worked as a hospice volunteer. I sat by one friend as she lay dying.
I want the government OUT of life and death decisions, other than to PROTECT life. You, OTOH, are pretending you want the government out of personal life, yet you want the government to ALLOW the government to interfere with life, to permit family members to kill other family members, or doctors to kill patients.
Anyone who wants to can commit suicide, there are books and socities to help people commit suicide. If nothing else, a person can voluntarily stop eating and drinking and guaranteed, their life will end.
Your bullshit is tiring, and the lie you are spewing - that I am the big gov advocate, is transparent as a pane of glass. You should at least be big enough to be honest and admit that YOU are the one who wants government meddling with life and death, not me.

I have every confidence that Little Jeremiah would never kill his mother, father, nor anyone else. Here's what your plan looks like. Do not attempt to corrupt the health care system that I and my loved ones depend on.
