You know, that makes me sick. To think that a mentally disabled woman being starved to death is a "fools' errand"... What kind of human being are you? The pro-life agenda will not end, just as the anti-homosexual agenda will not end. Our earthly life begins at conception, and ends at death. If it is cut short any time before this by another human being, it is murder. I see this issue as a junction point for our nation. We must choose to go down one of two roads: one leads to our success, one leads to our demise. I believe that if this woman dies, our demise will be imminent. I'm not sure where you stand in regards to an Almighty, but I can tell you with a fact that He exists, and when we are KILLING the innocent, be it a baby whose brains are being drilled out by a doctor at birth, or a court ordered starvation of a mentally disabled woman. The last society to define "Quality of Life" and the taking of that life based upon that quality was Germany circa 1930s to the 1940s. The empowered dictator ordered the extermination of millions of Jews, mentally disabled patients, and homosexuals. To not believe life needs to be preserved is disgusting and totally uncalled for...
One who contemplates the battles he fights.
We were at a crossroads. Down one path, we could invoke the nuclear option. Down the other path, we could waste our one opportunity to invoke the nuclear option AND make the whole issue too radioactive for the upcoming election cycle, all in the name of saving Terri Schiavo.
Unlike a lot of the "conservatives" who talk about a "fighting the culture war," I've actually fought in a war. And the first lesson of warfighting is maintenance of the objective. We failed to do that.
The pro-life agenda will not end, just as the anti-homosexual agenda will not end.
It will however, cease to have any impact in American politics if the pro-life community forms a single-issue pro-life party, which is the point I was making.
Our earthly life begins at conception, and ends at death. If it is cut short any time before this by another human being, it is murder.
OK...I guess I've just lost the right to engage in self-defense using lethal force.
We must choose to go down one of two roads: one leads to our success, one leads to our demise.
And we've chosen the latter.
I believe that if this woman dies, our demise will be imminent.
Thank you for your input.
I believe that if we fail to appoint conservative jusges, our demise is inevitable. Thanks for helping us blow the opportunity to do so.
To not believe life needs to be preserved is disgusting and totally uncalled for...
How many abortions are going to be performed because we wasted our shot at the nuclear option for this?
