I made it a point not to say what my real feelings are about the Schiavo case while Terri was still alive. You weren't following the discussion very well, I don't think, but if I wasn't clear enough then I apologize.

All throughout the Schiavo thing, I made a few comments here and there but never said what I actually think about the whole thing.

My feelings about it were very complicated and personal, and I said nothing other than I did not want her to die.

But she did die and that's over.

I still don't care to share my feelings about it.

I most definitely do NOT think this is a detriment to America. This has been going on for at least 30 years now and we are still here.

Because heavy smoking may take 30 years to bring on a fatal case of lung cancer, it is not a detriment to the human body? That makes as much sense as your assertion.

Kindly note too, that Terri Schiavo is a new nadir in shamelessness for the godless, new age, woo-woo death to the disabled camp. America was at least for those "30 years" not willing for this sort of thing to disgrace their TV screens in real time. America kept it quiet and private. Now, that rubicon is crossed. Increase in shamelessness is never a good sign for a nation.
