The Slow Painful Death…Of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness

From J.B. Williams of Mens News Daily (you know the drill…read it all…)

Liberty and Happiness are only possible for those first allowed the right to live. If we have no right to life, we have no rights at all…

Finally, the time has come when the American people must stand up and demand real justice. Not Hollywood justice, but the kind of justice promised by the real written Constitution of these United States. That promise that says we are ALL “endowed by our Creator”, with certain “inalienable rights”, first among them, the right to LIFE, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

Do you think this is all about Terri Schiavo? One woman, wished dead by one husband because he no longer has any use for her? You’d better think again…

There are millions of people sitting in nursing homes across this nation who are unable to feed themselves, bathe themselves or communicate with the outside world. The same arguments used to deny food and water to Terri Schiavo would apply to all of them…

If we don’t take a stand for Terri’s right to live, who will take a stand for our loved ones right to food and water?

I keep saying it over and over again, but this is what it’s all about.

(And look, ellipses…you’d think I wrote this!) :wink:

    What’s Right for Terri Schiavo?

    In the Terri Schiavo case, I sat on my hands until today. Its a sordid affair in which motives seem to override all other matters. Such is the problem with money.

    The money in this case is a $1 million settlement from a malpractice suit over Schi…

    But do I have the right to a dignified end to my life? Especially when I know I will be both an emotional and financial burden to my family and my country (medicaid and medicare). If I have no quality of life as I determine for myself, then I don’t want my existence in this life to continue. Terry should be granted the same right.

    False analogy between TS’s case and those of our grandparents in nursing homes.

    You need a variety of false analogies, outright lies, and the neglect of facts to posit your views. Sad. It would be innocent except you want to control the death of another.

    And about the “false analogy”–tell that to the disability advocates. It’s not “just” my opinion or that of the article’s author. :roll:
