Christine O'Donnell's Schiavo Case: 'Life For Lauren' (Inquiring minds want to know...)
TPM ^ | September 24, 2010, 8:44AM | Rachel Slajda

Posted on 09/24/2010 9:49:52 AM PDT by DelaWhere

You know that Christine O'Donnell is pro-life. But one episode that hasn't gotten much attention is her work on an end-of-life case, reminiscent of Terry Schiavo's, in 2008.

O'Donnell, the new Republican Senate candidate from Delaware, cites her pro bono public relations work on the case as the reason she was in dire financial straits during her Senate campaign against Joe Biden that year. Her straits were so dire, in fact, she sold her home...

Another point is that if rules were relaxed so that volunteers could help care for the needy in hospitals - trained of course - to take care of more mundane tasks, this would reduce costs. There is so much freaking legal redtape about everything that it makes costs skyrocket. I bet all kind of volunteers woulds be thrilled to help care for the sick and helpless. I bet groups would even form just for the purpose.

I corrected that person’s misinformation in the comments.

O’Donnell did an interview with Faith2Acton on 2.12.2008 about Lauren Richardson, which is before the March 2008 mortgage lawsuit.

And most importantly:

“Lauren Richardson wept emotionally when her mother informed her of the settlement and the reconciliation of her parents confirming to the mother that her daughter was aware and responsive.”

I remember it well, a number of us were getting ready to organize protests outside the hospital.

IIRC Mikey Schiavo’s lawyers were trying to influence Lauren’s mother.

Right now, the country needs people who can be hard-@$$ed about it and say, “Sorry, there’s just not enough money to pay for that”.

It’s been a busy troll, jumping from thread to thread, dropping turds everywhere it goes.

The only question is whether TROLLey was sent by the 'Rats or the RINOs.

It idolizes hillary, so I’m guessing rats.

Correction. Upon further examination, it seems the troll has a love/hate relationship with hillary, not just idol worship.

She got hit with a mortgage lawsuit only one month after falling into arrears?? Who's her banker, Simon Legree?

Try to focus here TROLLey, the problem IS NOT O'Donnell's mortgage, they problem is YOUR support for death panels and rationing.

My guess is that you’re either some boil faced kid in his mother’s basement, or Kathleen Sebelius. Which is it?

Oh by the way, Kathleen, how come there’s no money to care for disabled people, but there’s plenty of abortion funded blood money for campaign cash?

I didn’t say she was sued one month after she fell into arrears. I don’t even know where you came up with that logic.

I provided evidence that O’Donnell was involved in the Richardson case before she was sued. The comment on TPM claimed that when she was sued in March she was not yet involved in the case, which is incorrect.

In all likelihood TROLLey is a basement-dwelling troll and any hope for logical thought vanished several thousand bong hits ago.
