Act of Congress: What is Terri Schiavo getting from all this?
On oneside the Christian lobby is flexing it's muscles in the name of God's will. They presume to know his mind even if he never wrote anything down about these particular circumstances. The Catholic Church and the feeble-minded Pope have been referenced also.Please take a close look at their respective credentials.
Tom DeLay the beleagured House Majority Leader finally has an oppurtunity to scapegoat his alledged misconduct by claiming to be a victim of his faith. Now he knows how the Taliban felt.
Bill Frist the Senate Majority Leader is demonstrating to the democrats what can happen to any hold up of judicial nominees.
Bush and his guilty conscience is trying to balance the Iraqi death toll by literally jamming a tube down a woman's throat and symbolically jamming unconstitutional legislation down the throats of Americans. W is quoted"it is wisest to always err on the side of life". This is the same moron who launched a preemptive war.
Ms. Schiavo's parents are winning their vindictive battle against their estranged son-in-law.
And of course the lawyers are getting paid more than they diserve.
But what about Terri? Fifteen years of a vegetative mental And physical state is needlessly cruel and unusual suffering. There is a time to go.

Death with dignity? I think not. Terri Schiavo should have been allowed to die "naturally", years ago. Her husband should have been the one to make that choice on her behalf, given the medical evidence that her brain had atrophied to the great extent that it had. The politicians, trumpeting her constitutional right to life, would change the words "of the people, by the people and for the people" to be "of the judges, etc." to suit this mission. Her family, the clergy and religious zealots will make a martyr of her and a mockery of her funeral and, doubtless, the many memorials to follow. What's next? Will the first Monday in April be designated Terri Schiavo Day? In a country where millions of people have no medical coverage and barely a roof over their heads, how do we justify the enormous resources that have been squandered on thousands of persistantly vegetative beings?
