Wagglebee thread on the debates...

Columbia, SC (LifeNews.com) -- With Rudy Giuliani getting intense heat over his pro-abortion position in recent weeks, causing him to slide in the polls, the rest of the Republican presidential field tried to grab the pro-life mantle during the second presidential debate. They each tried to outmaneuver the other to say they are the most opposed to abortion.

With most of the candidates going on at length about their pro-life views, Giuliani urged respect for differences of opinion on abortion.

Thread on Texas Futile Care law by monomaniac. Thanks, Coleus.<p>.......................<p><body> <p>Austin, TX (LifeNews.com) -- <font color="blue">The Texas state Senate has approved a bill that would revise a law that allows families just 10 days to find care for a loved one when a medical facility refuses to provide continued lifesaving medical treatment. Under the measure, families would get a minimum of 21 days to locate a medical facility that will care for the patient. </font></p> <p>Current state law allows medical facilities to determine that a patient is too far gone to receive further care and they can tell families that they will stop lifesaving medical treatment in 10 days.<br> </p> <p><font color="blue" size="4"><b>~Snip~</b></font></p> <p></p> <p><font color="blue">Those provisions will ensure that patients similar to Terri Schiavo who are marked "futile" by hospital ethics committees can continue to receive food and water while the family searchers for another medical facility.</font></p> </body> <p> <font color="#ff0000" size="4"> <a href="http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1834302/posts?page=3#3">Texas Senate Approves Bill Reforming Futile Care Law to Help Patients</a> <br> </font> <p> 8mm<p>
