Let us not beat around the Bush. The Democratic Party is not any diferant than Adolph Hitlers Nazi Party. The small differance is the courts are used to exterminate the unborn in the USA.

Christians are not loved by the left. Janet Reno went into Waco and exterminated the children by burning them all to death. The hatred on the left is candy coated and people must know realize taht this group hates the
1-Ten Commandments
2-Hates the Pledge of Allegience
3-Has a man like Ted Kennedy as a leader.
A man who never was prosecuted for killing Mary Jo Kopechnie & fetus
4-Bill Clinton, A man who was accused by 7 women of sexually abusing them
5-The left wanted to see the mass graves continue in Iraq
6-The left wants nativity scenes removed from any public displays
7-the left holds candle light vigils for murdering child molesters, oh yes they do. While ignoring most victims.
8-now the left wants the abortion of "only" fetuses that may contain a "gay gene" to be saved against abortion
9-the left and its senator Robert KKK Byrd also was against the Civil Rights act, the amjority of Republicans passed the civil rights act

in 3 years will we be saying
"HEIL HILLARY"

Actually I don't beleive that Dr. K should have gone to jail. A person has the right to decide if they want to use the route Dr. K proposed. But starving a person to death when it has not been proven that was the wish is unreal. No one who has seen that would in my opinion suggest it for another human being. Where do you draw the line. Who knows what happened in this case? I do not believe the husband is telling the truth. Why he wants to be free. My personal view and I know you are going to disagree is that he is another Scott Peterson his wife was an inconvienance to him. I worked in nursing homes and saw cases where the people should have been allowed to die. So I support Dr. K in this. I saw to it my mother came home and refused to allow them to put a feeding tube in her as she had two malignant brain tumors. Her nurse a fellow cancer survivor agreed with me. There was no point but my mother made it clear that she did not want to be hooked to life support. That was established long before she died. However what decision is made by the paramedics on the scene. Letting someone starve to death is to me playing God. Yes I made a decision when my father was also in yours in a hospital bed. We let him go. Every soldier that has ever served was afraid of war. Where do you draw the line at what point do we take a stand? I think that perhaps you have not had enough time to deal with that. So do not rush yourself in grief but please at least think about this much who are you really mad at? I faced this when it seemed my own death was right upon me. I went through 30 surgeries 16 of them in 13 months of which 3 were major and then I had 63 radiation treatments. I would not have wanted someone pulling the plug on me because they thought I would die anyway. I have gone through a lot and grieved a lot. I spent the better part of three years mourning my mother. She was 90 but she lived a good life. There has to be a better answer than starving someone to death. I had a lot of feelings when my mother died. If Terry had wanted to have a living will she would have. But then you have to respect her religion and she was a Catholic. I do not now believe or ever will that a cheating husband has her best wishes at heart. The mother that gave birth to her does. But as for Dr. K on that I agree with you he should not be there. I think he is heroic and before his time. I know a lot more about pulling the plug than most. I worked with people at the end of their life and talked with them as they passed over. Death is not the worst thing that can happen.
