It was not the purpose of my link- so quibble all you like about the Dr.

You posted a URL you labelled as "links" (note the plural) to "lots of good points." The doctor bit was the first thing on there when I followed the URL this morning. How dare I actually *READ* what was posted via a link you describe as "lots of good points"! How dare I look at everything there when, despite your use of the plural, you only wanted people to look at one specific item carefully chosen to showcase your agenda! Well of course we don't want to debate that; that would just be silly!

Perhaps you'd like to borrow my tinfoil hat? My paper tiger did nibble on the edges a bit, but it still works just as well as it always did.

Spare me- please. I was just saying that even I did not read the article on the Dr- so I was not going to debate it- and I did specifically point out the nurses statement. I am not showcasing anything- especially since it was ME who posted the article about the nurses statement being dismissed. And I am certainly allowed to post things that suit my view- you are not being forced to do diddly.

You know- I am used to swimming with the big bad liberal sharks here and am also used to being the guppy and I am used to getting my guppy ass beat up around here (even when I'm right

)- but I don't appreciate your tone. You did not even make the paper tiger comment- but the person who did doesn't feel the need to insult me. I fail to see why you do?

Let's be careful of personalizing this issue. None of us have a feeding tub in, no, out, no in, no out, of our mouths.

Just discuss.

Nephythys · 03-23-2005, 03:32 PM

Feeding tub??? How hungry are you?

Not Afraid · 03-23-2005, 04:21 PM

Always hungry. Always.

This has gone to far!

PINELLAS PARK, Fla. - Terri Schiavo's parents saw their options vanish one by one Wednesday as a federal appeals court refused to re-insert her feeding tube and the Florida Legislature decided not to intervene in the epic struggle. Refusing to give up, Gov. Jeb Bush sought court permission to take custody of Schiavo.

The desperate flurry of activity came as President Bush suggested that Congress and the White House had done all they could to keep the severely brain-damaged woman alive.

I suppose he thinks he should have custody over her parents and her husband because he knows her so well.

And I suppose he thinks he'll get it because he is the governer of Fl and his bro is the almighty prez.

Didn't Jeb also try to take custody of a convicted killer with the mental development of a seven year old before his brother could execute him? No? Huh. Must be a false "culture of life" memory on my part.

Hey, it just ocurred to me. It was bullemia that caused the heart attack that lead to the brain damage in the first place. Maybe the family wants to keep the feeding tube in so she can exercise her right to force herself to vomit after being fed.
