Come on, Papa...the real issue here is our current administration's desire to have it every way they can.
When the polls are against an issue (your mentioning of gay marriage), they want the judges to err on the side of public majority.
Now, with the issue CLEARLY (as even our lovely, right-winging Fox News must admit) on the side of Terri's right-to-DIE, the government wants to legislate and force the judges to do what they want.
Democrats, for their part, are willing to abide by the decisions of our judiciary as they are interpreters of our law.

What is unbelievable to me is majority America's hypocrisy. Or perhaps it's just a complete lack of understanding. Somehow (should these polls be correct), Most Americans want the government out of decisions like ENDING SOMEONE'S LIFE (be it your own or your spouse's), but heaven forbid we try to establish legally bound families that have responibilites to each other and the community at large.

Appalling.

i just wish they wouldn't wait so long to kill folks. i mean couldn't we just get a thumbs up or thumbs down in triage? it would so simplify things and make it easier on families later. that way they'd never even have to face such traumatic decisions about whether to remove a feeding tube and thus starve a person to death. or maybe a federal bureau of killin'. let's start by clearing death row and execute 'em all in one fell swoop. then we can move on to hospices and nursing homes and encourage the angels of death (like charley cullen and harry shipman) to ply their trades without any fear of silly prosecutions when all they were really doing is ending suffering.

that silliness aside, it's an issue of conscience for many people who see a culture of death taking root in a society that already devalues life to a great degree (not talking abortion there, but the callous disreagard fro life that is seen increasingly among the youth). many of these people are staunch opponents of the death penalty. they believe that humans never have the right to take life.

now the politicians who made this into a football? please, name a time when politicians have ever, ever declined to get involved in an issue if they thought it would appeal to their base? that's like cursing a compass for pointing north. it's disgusting, but they are what they are and they are nothing if not consistent.

democrats, for their part, are willing to abide by the decisions of our judiciary as they are interpreters of our law.

i'll just tuck this away even though i can't imagine that there will ever be a day when i might want to remind you of this.

I have one question for many of you:

Why don't they just give her a lethal injection and be done with it? Can't find any liberals that are brave enough to administer the injection?

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

No, Gotham, don't be snide.
No one can administer a lethal injection because that is ILLEGAL here.
We'll use medicine to maintain a completely horrific quality of life for someone, but we won't use it to ease suffering one whit if it means we're promoting this "culture of killing."
Boy, Republicans sure have gotten good at codewords to define our horrible social mores, haven't they?

Papa, go ahead and file that one away...I didn't see Dems trying to introduce legislation into Congress to elect Gore when the Supreme Court ruled in favor of that guy who lost the popular vote.

If heaven's such a great place, why are the conservatives so insistant on keeping this poor woman from getting there?

"No one can administer a lethal injection because that is ILLEGAL here."

But starving her to death is ok?
