Again and again, they appear. Poor Fred in his last sentence hopes this will go away, as that phrase is repeated again and again. It is stuck on him just as wetoldjaso. He may not ever understand just how important it was to defend the life of this innocent, but the media will assure it is in his face anyway.

You may recall, candidate Fred Thompson was asked a few weeks ago about the highly controversial Terri Schiavo right-to-die case from two years ago in which the husband of a Florida woman in a persistent vegetative state wanted to remove her feeding tube. Her parents went to court and Gov. Jeb Bush, Congress and other politicians got into the struggle.
Thompson said he didn't really recall much about the case, and some people clucked and said, How could he not? Well, Thompson was talking with some reporters last week and, it turns out, he remembers it too well. He just didn't want to talk about it: Like a growing number of Americans, he had gone through a similar end-of-life decision -- regarding his daughter five years ago.

Then he added, "I will assure you one thing: No matter which decision you make, you will never know whether or not you made exactly the right decision. So making this into a political football is something that I don't welcome. And this will probably be the last time I ever address it."
