Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- During the faith debate at Messiah College on Sunday night, pro-abortion Democratic presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama largely avoided a question about whether patients should be allowed to have a right to assisted suicide or euthanasia.
Clinton was asked if she "believe[s] it is compassionate, that it is appropriate to let someone who is really suffering choose to end their life."
"Again, this is one of those incredibly challenging issues," she responded.
"You know, the Terri Schiavo case in Florida posed that for many people," Clinton added, referring to the case of a disabled woman whose former husband won the legal right to subject her a painful 13-day starvation and dehydration euthanasia death.
She called the Schiavo case one where "there were people of good faith and people of strong feelings on both sides about what should happen to that woman's life."
Ultimately, Clinton said she was unsure whether government should allow assisted suicide or euthanasia.
"I don't know that any of us is in a position to make that choice for families or for individuals, but I don't want us also to condone government action that would legitimize or encourage end-of-life decisions," she said.
Clinton appeared to ask more questions than give answers to the bioethics concerns.
"Somehow there has to be a framework for us to determine how can people who are either able to make these decisions on their own do so? Or if they are not, how best do we create a decision process for their families to try to decide?" she added........

Later, Eli gathers Taylor, Patti, and Dowd into his office and explains to Taylor and Patti that he needs them to witness the signing of his living will. He doesn't want to be Terri Schiavo'ed. "You want us to witness you signing your suicide note?" Taylor asks incredulously. It's "about how and under what circumstances I don't want to live," Eli tells her. It's another moment that really showcases one of the things I like so much about this show -- the strength of the relationships between the people. They're not always close, but the bonds are apparent, and it feels real....

Hillary also said that people of "good faith" were on both sides of [Schiavo] issue. She is saying that people of good faith are okay with starving an innocent women to death and all the other outrageous linked with the case.
