Janice Rogers Brown would be perfect. I think there are several states that are ready to pass laws outlawing abortion, but want to wait for the enough votes on the Court (though I still think that Kennedy would overturn Roe if presented with the “right” case).

These barbarians would have cut up Terri for her organs.

Shock: Oxford Neonatologist Says Time Has Come to Consider “Mandatory Organ Donation”

OXFORD, UK, October 24, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - According to Dr. Julian Savulescu, the Uehiro Chair of Practical Ethics at the University of Oxford, and neonatologist and Oxford graduate student Dominic Wilkinson, bold steps may have to be taken to increase the supply of organs for transplant. This, they say in a co-authored article published today, could be accomplished by removing one simple impediment - the requirement of donor "death." In a separate article, published last week, Wilkinson suggested an even more radical plan – mandatory organ donation.

"We could abandon the dead donor rule," wrote the pair in today’s article, published on Oxford’s Centre of Practical Ethics’ website. "We could for example, allow organs to be taken from people who are not brain dead, but who have suffered such severe injury that they would be permanently unconscious, like Terry Schiavo, who would be allowed to die anyway by removal of their medical treatment."

"We will not be silent. We are your bad conscience. The White Rose will give you no rest."
