AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGH!

I AM SORRY!

I did jump to the wrong conclusion... You're absolutely right. My comments should have been directed at the original poster. I've had my rage-colored glasses on for a couple of weeks over the potential murder of Terri Schiavo and I got nuclear in my reaction.

Please forgive me. And Miss B as well. I apologize sincerely to both of you.

No harm done, We are supposed to be angry over this. When did Death become a right? We are entitled to LIFE liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

In the videos, you can see a smile wake across Terri's face as someone asks how she is.

As Human beings, we can destroy life we can undo life, but we cannot destroy or undo death. Death is the end.

From MarMema

This woman has all the facts, we are slowly being conditioned to be desensitized to death-


Aushchwitz in America

"It took no more than three decades to transform a war crime into an act of compassion, thereby enabling the victors in the war against Nazism to adopt the very practices for which the Nazis had been solemnly condemned at Nuremberg."

The transformation followed thus: The concept that the elderly and terminally ill should have the right to die was promoted in books, newspapers, literature and even entertainment films, the most popular of which were entitled "Ich klage an (I accuse)" and "Mentally Ill."

One euthanasia movie, based on a novel by a National Socialist doctor, actually won a prize at the world-famous Venice Film Festival! Extreme hardship cases were cited, which increasingly convinced the public to morally approve of euthanasia. The medical profession gradually grew accustomed to administering death to patients who, for whatever reasons, felt their low "quality of life" rendered their lives not worth living, or as it was put, lebensunwerten Lebens, (life unworthy of life). "

This movie and The Sea Inside are both getting awards and being promoted as wonderful by the left. It suits their agenda to promote the culture of death. The disabled are first in line, and this is a propaganda consistent with the way the Germans gained acceptance of euthanasia.

Thank you for kindly forgiving me.

I think of Terri as being similar to a baby. Maybe she can't speak clearly but makes sounds and gestures trying to communicate; can't eat without food being mashed and fed to her; laughs at her Dad; looks lovingly at her Mom; has moods; recognizes pain; watches a balloon float... all activities to which she responds similar to the way a human infant would. Who is to say a baby is not happy? Babies have all those limitations, yet are most joyful and happy to be alive. What kind of cruel persons can prevent Terri, who also has the innocence of a baby, from being fed?

I thank God for the internet and for blogs. Where would we be otherwise? Curtsying to Queen Shrillary while an unknown Terri Schiavo slowly and painfully starves to death in a little place called Florida? We can save our country and we can save a life. What a wonderful invention, Algore!

Prayers for Terri, her family, and all associated with saving her life. More prayers for her judge and executioners, for they well know what they do.

We are the modern-day equivalent of "samizdat". We pass the truth from hand to hand.
