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

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...

I think it’s a pizza-faced kid who dresses up in his mommy’s clothes and pretends he’s Kathleen Sebelius.

That’s what I want to know: why is the US Government pumping money into Planned Parenthood for abortions, but has no money to keep feeding tubes in the medically fragile?

Why must the medically fragile not only forfeit their lives, but made to do it in the most cruel manner possible?

Why don’t we send you out with a gun, and just shoot them in their heads, Kathleen? It would save those precious medical resources that are wasted while waiting for them to die, and their quick dispatch would save them from a lot of suffering. Oh, The American Public not ready for that? Come on, Kathleen, you can convince them!

Christine O’Donnell is just a girl who followed her conscience. What about you, Kathleen? Do you have a conscience? Why bother about O’Donnell when you’ve got bigger fish to fry, such as dispatching the rest of the Greatest Generation. Focus on them. Time to get tough @ssed. O’Donnell is just a distraction to you, Ms. Sebelius. Keep your focus!

Where did you come up with the fact that she paid her mortgage in February and was therefore only one month behind in March? I provided evidence that she was involved in the case in Februrary to dispute the claim that she was sued before becoming involved in the case. I did not provide evidence that she was current on her mortgage in February. You’re assuming facts not in evidence.

The ‘imperfects’ in their view should suffer the same fate...

One need only remember what they said about Trig Palin.

In fact, my kids (8 and 6 at the time) overheard some of their talk and were quite disturbed by the sentiment. They still ask about Trig from time to time, and the best thing that could come out of it would be for them to be life long, pro-life Conservatives.

As a bit of a comparison between their attitudes and Christine’s...

Meeting our adopted special needs daughter at one of the rallies, Christine took time to really talk to her and to tell her that she understood how happy she must be to finally have a ‘Forever Family’. Not as a campaigning politician, but as a caring human - says a lot in my book...

Oh, daughter went to the polls with us - we wanted her to know the process and procedures - She was VERY upset that she wasn’t old enough to be able to actually vote for her. She explained that she knew what was in Christine’s heart and wanted to participate in the voting.

Though our daughter is 14 going on 7, sometimes her insight on people is astounding...

Lauren Richardson gave birth (while in a coma) to her daughter in February 2007. Sometime after that Lauren’s mother filed suit to end Lauren’s life.

According to court documents, O’Donnell became delinquent on her mortgage in October 2007.

The court issued a decision in Lauren’s case in January 2008.

We know O’Donnell was involved in Lauren’s case in February 2008. We don’t yet know when she first became involved.

O’Donnell’s mortgage company sued her on March 5, 2008.

Nope, TROLLey still has a homepage:
http://www.freerepublic.com/~trolley/

Although, there was a glitch the other day when a troll got the zot and was still able to make comments for a few more minutes.

He’s gone. I think it takes time to really nuke an account.

I see that, it's getting to be about time for Jim to upgrade the bugzapper.

I hit “Abuse” on Trolley the other day. Right after they signed up , maybe 2 days later, but I guess they hadn’t crossed the line or they didn’t recognize them as a retread at the time.

I’m thinking we need a nuclear-powered one with a back-up coal generator and maybe a flux capacitor just for good measure.
