Is there something about the word, “despicable” that gets to you, Etixos?

As of recent you have returned and sharpened your focus only on those of us who champion pro-life. Is the timing in harmony with the campaign of the pro death gang like the Obamacidal Maniac? Even since you appeared on scene in February, your posting has been consistent in vitriol towards us. We gave the benefit of doubt that just maybe you have a conservative core hidden somewhere. But nope, it always comes back to the same thing, a nibbling away at pro-life values, with attempts to soften the bites with smooth words and even a sound of friendliness.

I find the timing says a whole lot. At the moment, we defend against the greatest threat to the sanctity of life our country may ever have faced, and yet you offer them aid and comfort.

You are on the wrong forum, troll.

Anyone care to guess what the Obamunist thinks of the Oregon snuffing procedures and Duty to Die like a rat, also known as Death with Dignity?

..............................

ScienceDaily (Oct. 8, 2008) — One in four terminally ill patients in the State of Oregon who opt for physician assisted suicide have clinical depression and the Death with Dignity Act may not be adequately protecting them, concludes a study published on the British Medical Journal website....

And... the Obamacidal Maniac said the poor survivor of an abortion was "despicable". She should have shut up and died, I guess.

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Another analysis from a nonpartisan group shows Barack Obama misrepresented his votes in the Illinois legislature against bills to provide medical care for newborns who survive failed abortions. The analysis says a pro-life group was right and that an Obama ad on the issue was misleading.

At issue are Obama's votes on the Born Alive Infants Protection Act bills in the Illinois legislature....

The Obamacidal Maniac is saddened but still figures it is not too late if the moms change their minds and still want to snuff the kid. Thread by wagglebee.

October 10, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Excitement continues to rise among pro-lifers across North America -- and distress among Planned Parenthood advocates -- as the number of rescued babies rises to a total of 114 throughout the 170 communities participating in the 40 Days for Life.

David Bereit, national campaign director for the 40 DFL, writes that peaceful protesters with California's San Fernando Valley chapter of the 40 DFL had some "very encouraging news" to relate. An absent abortionist, unusually low numbers of scheduled abortions, and 40 DFL pilgrims from far and wide were mere preliminaries to the day's excitement, during which at least one woman "changed [her] mind" and left the abortuary smiling............

The Obamacidal Maniac is much better at knowing when our right to live ends.

Thread by wagglebee.

....................................

The question of when our rights begin has always brought us back to the fundamental question of when life begins. This is because we operate under the assumption that since "all men are created equal," if you are a person, you have rights.

Even Justice Blackmun, author of the Roe v. Wade decision, which created a woman's "constitutional right" to an abortion, recognized that this was the essential question: Is the child in the womb a person? He and the other justices who voted with him in Roe ultimately decided that the fetus was not a person, while still recognizing the "vigorous opposing views, even among physicians." But he wrote, "[i]f this suggestion of personhood is established, [Roe's] case, of course, collapses, for the fetus' right to life would then be guaranteed specifically by the [Fourteenth] Amendment." .........

Another source I can only excerpt...

Doctors feel our pain. But when the doctors killed Terri, I think she felt the pain more than they did...

When parents' religious or cultural values prevent children from receiving necessary medical treatment, their doctors might agonize so much that they begin suffering, as well - from headaches, nightmares, feelings of worthlessness and depression.

The condition is known as "moral distress," and it can be so severe that it degrades patient care, Micah Hester, a medical ethics expert and author of several books, told an audience of 130 medical providers Saturday.............

I may only excerpt from this source. What is a human life worth? Years ago in Washington State, a scientist sincerely tried to explain it to me in terms of value of the chemicals and minerals making up the body.

At first, Medicare paid for everything, her husband, Terrence Chowen, said. Doctors said there was nothing more they could do. Medicare pulled out, he said.

"Medicare would only cover it if you were recuperating or while there's hope that you might recuperate," Chowen said........

I apologize if I think this occurance is just a bit too convenient. The courts and her father have agreed that she must be put to death, but the doctors and facilities had refused to snuff her. So now, this, at a peculiar time...

This undated file photo released from family shows Eluana Englaro, who fell into a vegetative state following a car accident in 1992. Two years later, doctors called her condition irreversible. The condition of Englaro at the center of a right-to-die case has worsened after she suffered a massive hemorrhage, doctors said Saturday, Oct. 11, 2008. Englaro has been in a vegetative state for 16 years and her father has led a protracted court battle to disconnect her feeding tube, insisting it was her wish. (AP Photo/Englaro family, HO, File) ROME (AP) — The condition of an Italian woman at the center of a right-to-die case worsened after she suffered a massive hemorrhage, doctors said Saturday. Eluana Englaro has been in a vegetative state for 16 years and her father has led a protracted court battle to disconnect her feeding tube, insisting it was her wish. This summer a Milan court granted his request, setting off a political storm in this overwhelmingly Roman Catholic country. Italy does not allow euthanasia, but patients have a right to refuse treatment. Catholic and anti-euthanasia groups protested the ruling by leaving bottles of water in front of Milan's Duomo cathedral. Prosecutors appealed the decision and the father pledged not to disconnect the tube before Italy's high court weighed in. Carlo Alberto Defanti, Englaro's doctor, told reporters gathered Saturday at a clinic in northern Italy that over the last two days Englaro had been bleeding from her uterus. "It was a very abundant hemorrhage, which puts her life at risk," he said. "This afternoon it stopped. We can't make predications; if it doesn't restart she may recover." Italian news reports said doctors had agreed not to give Englaro a blood transfusion. Englaro was 20 years old when she fell into a vegetative state following a car accident in 1992. Two years later, doctors called her condition irreversible. Her father, Beppino Englaro, has said she had visited a friend who was in a similar condition shortly before her accident and had expressed the will to refuse treatment if in the same situation. The case has drawn comparisons here with that of Terry Schiavo, the American woman who was at the center of a right-to-die debate until her death in 2005. Schiavo's husband, who wanted her feeding tube removed against her parents' wishes, prevailed in a polarizing battle in the United States that reached Congress, President Bush and the Supreme Court.

Haleigh Poutre update...

The Massachusetts Department of Social Services, now with a new name and an old M.O. tried at the beginning to kill Haleigh, and almost did. Perhaps it was to harvest spare parts, and perhaps it was to make a stronger case against her assailant, nevertheless, they tried and almost succeeded.

Not to learn their lesson, stubbornly they cling to the child as if she were their very personal property, and doing so, exceed the bounds of reason. That is how entrenched is their dark resolve even in the brunt of public exposure. Without explanation, they even refuse her natural birth mom even a glimpse at Haleigh. What is going on? We are grateful the mom has a high profile attorney like Wendy Murphy to help her.

..........................................

You see Allison Avrett meeting her two regular children, aged 7 and 8, at the school bus stop. You see her walk them to a well-kept home with Halloween decorations out front. You see her watch one child coloring at the kitchen table, then pose for pictures, everybody acting like regular families do.

Now, Allison Avrett may, in fact, be a person so horrible as to deserve her fate: first losing her eldest child to the state, then being banished even from visiting that sick child in the hospital.

But if so, the State Department of Social Services, renamed the Department of Families and Children, has not revealed documents that say so. Nor has it given Avrett a reason for severing all relations between her and that child, well known as Haleigh Poutre, 14.

Pardon my cynicism. But here’s betting that if there is a reason, we’d know it.

Most of us know Haleigh’s wrenching tale. At age 4, the department took her - wrongly, as is now apparent - from Avrett, then placed her, wrongly, with an aunt who nearly beat her to death. Then the department, wrong again, went to court to remove Haleigh from life support, reneging after doctors reported she was breathing on her own.

Avrett has long maintained she was among the first, if not the first, to notice her child’s eyes following her about her hospital room. That was when the department still let Avrett visit Haleigh. But they stopped her visits more than two years ago. The department will not say why, citing Avrett’s pending suit arguing that Haleigh was wrongly taken in the first place.

Were there no pending suit, the department would still refuse to comment. This is how it operates: hiding behind court orders and child privacy claims when typically the point is protecting itself.

And nobody seems bothered, even in this outrageous case, when the department bungled to the point of Haleigh’s death, then has the gall to blacklist a mother without producing a shred of evidence.

Pardon my cynicism. But here’s betting none of this is about helping Haleigh. It’s about a longstanding department mindset that says, ‘we do what we want because we can, no accountability.’ It’s about what’s neater and less legally risky. Haleigh’s stepfather’s trial is pending. Plus Wendy Murphy, a relentless, media-savvy lawyer, represents Avrett. That surely worries department bureaucrats: What if Murphy doesn’t give up?

You ask Allison Avrett how she copes? “Day by day,” she says. “I have two other kids who need me. But yes, I would love to see Haleigh.” If she is eventually free for adoption, “I’d love to have her, me or someone from the family.”

Avrett is not perfect. She gave birth to Haleigh at 17. Her boyfriend took off. She struggled. For a while, she concedes, she was not a good mother. That was 10 years and two more children ago, more than half of Haleigh’s lifetime.

WND is hated and vilified for the usual simple reasons. They say things our adversaries do not want anyone to hear. Many even here on FreeRepublic sip the Kool Aid even if just a taste, and fall into the chorus. It is so easy to join the harangue and throw a stone when others nearby are throwing stones. But WND has always done wonderfully by us Terri Listers.

Shucks, Jerome Corsi, hated on his own accord for bringing truth to the elections, has used and made famous a term you can find originating right here on the Terri Dailies, "The Obama Nation". Bob Unruh has always done right by us, especially.

This article by Bob Unruh redefines "despicable" We may remember the Obamacidal Maniac defined despicable in describing the poor woman who survived an abortion and lived to tell about it.

Thread by kindred with thanks to wagglebee for the ping. Our own lexicon does not yet have words strong enough to describe the leftist scum. To them, indoctrination of citizens into the propaganda of the far left is a duty of the government.

They are trying to shred our country and to a large degree are succeeding!

A federal court decision approving mandatory public school instruction for children as young as kindergarten in how to be homosexual is being allowed to stand, drawing a description of "despicable" from the parent who unsuccessfully challenged his school district's "gay" advocacy agenda.

The U.S. Supreme Court without comment has refused to intervene in a case prompted by the actions of officials at Estabrook Elementary school in Lexington, Mass., who not only were teaching homosexuality to young children, but specifically refused to allow Christian parents to opt their children out of the indoctrination........
