Terri Schiavo was not a nothing, and shame on anyone who would even utter such a thing.

The persons that do care likely either view pro-life media such as lifenews.com
or will hear it word of mouth from their like-minded friends.

Ben Carson has just lost all credibility.

Has Been!


After the events in Paris on 11/13, I will be adding
this to my posts for the next week. I'm certain our
turn is coming again soon. We stand united against
Islamic extremists.


Some music for reflection if the mood strikes you.

An honorable mention also goes out to Lassana Bathily , a Muslim immigrant from Mali.
Mr. Bathily sheltered customers at the Jewish Deli and helped police by providing info
on the terrorists, and providing the location of survivors in the deli.

I don’t think this exposes him as liberal, just ignorant and living in a medical expert bubble.

I have talked with brilliant doctors who refused to believe plain facts and clear evidence when alternatives to mainstream medicine healed people, even including chiropractic medicine.

Carson does not have all the facts here. But as someone seeking to lead the free world, he should have a better command of them.

I have followed and liked Carson as a possible outside candidate from the time he first publicly rebuked the president. However, this is just one more in a long string of disappointments.

I could still hold my nose and vote for Carson if he emerged as the GOP nominee, but he is not my first choice.

Cruz is the most consistent conservative. He is my first choice.

Among the outsiders who at least talk conservatively, Trump has the best shot at winning. So I am hoping like many here for a Trump / Cruz ticket.

Disqualified. we do not need any liberals in DC to lead us, as we are trying to rid ourselves of the ones there.

Next candidate, please.

"Your job [as a doctor] is to keep them comfortable throughout that process and not to treat everything that comes up."

Ugh, I hadn't seen that part of his statement - that makes it even worse. One argument that the pro-murder side made in the Schiavo case was that starving and dehydrating Terri would cause no harm, because her brain was so damaged that she would feel no pain due to the starvation and dehydration.

But here, Carson is admitting that the doctor's job is to keep the patient comfortable--which necessarily means that the patient is capable of NOT being comfortable (i.e., is capable of pain)--and yet he's STILL calling it no big deal.

Disgusting. Absolutely disgusting. Forget this guy...

She was not DEAD. The videos proved that she was very much alive. She had brain damage, but she was a long way from dead. It was so heart breaking to see her laugh at her father’s joke.
