What a terrible situation

More important than the Schiavo story is the Sun Hudson story.

A hospital had the child's life terminated OVER the objections of the mother because of a law that allow people's lives to be terminated if 1) they won't get better 2) there is no evidence that the hospital bills can be paid.

It's not even an ethics question - this 5 1/2 month old child was killed just to save this hopital money!
btw - Bush signed that bill into law in 1999 when he was Gov of Tx!

Sun Hudson - Google that and see.

The fact that wing nuts like Russell Terry are in the middle of this tornado is making my head unscrew. my only hope is that carpet bagger Jesse Jackson will somehow make people forget Russell Terry's involvement.

with all that is going on in the world right now our congress acts with lightning speed over this? between their concern for steroids in baseball and mrs. schiavo it's a wonder a fucking thing gets done around there.

her plug should have been pulled a decade ago, pure and simple.

Oh My God!!! Has hell frozen Over?!? Mr G posts something I AGREE WITH COMPLETELY?!!! No fucking way! You are right on G. with no exit strategy for Irag, absurd fuel costs, etc etc, congress takes up steriods in Baseball and THIS case. Yep, we are headin' for hell in the proverbial handbasket.

Tony Alamo scares me!! :eek:

perhaps the most interesting aspect of this whole mess for me is that the geniuses who have been spouting off about "protecting the sanctity of marriage" are the same people who have tried to use their power in government to rid Mr. Schiavo of the rights and privileges granted to spouses in a marriage.

We're about to see what lengths the Catholic Church is willing to go to in keeping someone artificially alive...

Does this help clarify anything?

That's what the thread's husband says, but the parents disagree.
