"Jesuit priest on Night Line arguing for the starvation of Terri Schiavo"

OK , got to comment on that one. A Catholic Hospital will not do 2 things:

They won't perform an abortion

They won't deny food and fluids to a person: g-tube, or no g-tube (wish Terri could be sent to a Catholic hospital for this reason)

But as far as I'm concerned a Jesuit priest is not Catholic- they are Catholic-lite i.e. tastes great, but less fulfilling i.e. Jesuit- "I call myself Catholic, but I don't agree with any of the teachings of The Church". They use the the do-what-feels-good-doctrine.

By the way: Watch out- the left is going to try and spring into action with a massive media dis-information campaign-Terri's in a coma exc.. they will also try to get Jeb Bush with this, But that's ok. Let them. Let the democRATS run against Jeb on a "starve the disabled to death" platform. This is a fundamental difference between the left and the right. It should be made clear to people what the left stands for; i.e. execution of the disabled, weak, those who can't speak up for themselves.. go ahead RATS, run with it.

Some are, some aren't. The Jesuit's historical record is tremendous - they produced some of the best thinkers and writers down the ages.

I can't deny that they've gone way downhill... probably deeply infiltrated... but I'm hoping there are some left in that organization who remember their roots and can fight to bring it back to it's former place of honor in Catholic tradition.
