How soon before it becomes one’s duty to “die with dignity”?
Still in the introductory stages, death with dignity will be available on an optional basis “for a limited time only.”
After that it will be mandatory and paid by your tax dollars.
It is a matter of great concern to us Catholics here (real Catholics, I mean). The local Catholic hospital has announced they and their staff will not participate on any way, shape, or form. Obamurderer can try to force them but they won’t give in.
My whole heart and soul rebels against the thought of such an action. Yet it’s a victimless crime: the suicide consents to his own death. It’s a foolish, miserable, tragic mistake on his part, but it is a victimless crime. Better to change peoples’ hearts and minds to respect and preserve their own lives than to throw people into prison for it.
And for a limited time only, physicians can opt out. After that it will be mandatory. No conscientious objectors will be permitted after the free trial period. Make your reservations early, or be prepared to prescribe lethal poisons to the useless eaters.
Not much of a leap to mandating murdering the rest of us, especially when our medical care will cost Medicare too much. Nice political party, you got there, democrats. Could you be any more evil?
..doctors who have no problems writing and administering the drugs.....
....they could build a wing onto the existing abortion room.
Their motto could be:
We'll take you out, coming or going....
Why is it "Conservative" to deny those that want to die that option?
Good. End of life decisions belong with the family... not the courts, church or state.
It’s not really any of the gubmint’s business if someone wants to commit suicide. The only reason a doctor has to get involved at all is that the gubmint doesn’t let supposedly free people buy their own drugs. They must get a prescription. Suicide has been around forever.
The so-called “death with dignity” crowd can kiss my ass. I’m not leaving this movie until the “End Titles” are finished rolling.
the camel’s nose is under the tent. they will push for more just as soon as everyone’s accepted this
I believe this whole “dignity death” thing is driven largely by $$$ pure and simple. In Obamaland, the elderly, sick, and those born with serious birth defects will be encouraged and pressured to snuff themselves out so the central planners of our neo-Marxist economies (including state level) can claim balance sheet victories. When the central planners don’t get enough volunteers, they’ll move to Plan B: euthanasia of the unwilling.

Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: If they make a mistake, I dont want them punished with a baby.
Insurance companies and the State have made it so.
Not to mention the slippery slope instigating event that promoted this: HOSPICE.
Personally, I’d move to Washington to get the option should I be faced with a lingering and messy death.
I’m not quite so sure about what’s so “dignified” about suicide, but I guess this euphemysm is the first step in how to deal with the tens of millions of baby boomers who will be entering their golden years in the coming decades.
Socialism and its customary shortages has enough problems taking care of the worker bees- people who have outlived their usefulness become a real burden on the state.
