"When dealing with an issue of such seriousness, it is always better to err on the side of life" --The dub, speaking on behalf of the Terri Schiavo case (paraphrase).

*The irony is *killing* me...

Weary after an emotional visit with his wife, Schiavo said he is astonished that politicians want to interfere in such a private matter.

"Instead of worrying about my wife, who was granted her wishes by the state courts the past seven years, they should worry about the pedophiles killing young girls," Schiavo said, referring to a local case. "Why doesn't Congress worry about people not having health insurance? Or the budget? Let's talk about all the children who don't have homes."

He said US House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, who is leading a charge to extend Terri Schiavo's life, is a "little slithering snake" pandering for votes.

"To make comments that Terri would want to live, how do they know?" Schiavo said of the members of Congress who want to keep his wife alive.

"Have they ever met her?" Schiavo said. "What color are her eyes? What's her middle name? What's her favorite color? They don't have any clue who Terri is. They should all be ashamed of themselves."(St. Petersburg Times)

"The uber-moral "sanctity of human life" assclowns have been sending death threats to the judge who ordered the feeding tube removed." --(maru, from the crankpot)
