Did lawmakers debate the War as long as Shiavo?
Did they even spend this much time debating the war?
Did they spend even a fraction of this Terri's Tube Time on deciding to go to war?
100,000 dead civilians and 1550 dead soldiers didn't even get this media and congressional attention.

1. The war was about killing brown people.
They don't count. Hence, no debate was necessary.

2. There was not any debate at all before the Patriot Act and they
want to keep it intact.

Isn't Musgrove the crier every time she gets up and speaks?

4. oh, good point!!!
Someone should stand up and say that!! Talk about a right to life...we condemned these poor soldiers in a bogus war...

This is such transparent bullshit!!! 15 years of legal action and every judge has gone the husband's way... I'm so sick of this religious right crap being rammed down our throats by this adminstration...

5. Did any child die today in America due to inadequate medical care?
These holier-than-thou, we're doing this out of respect for life-ers, should spend the same time and energy providing guaranteed medical care for people who can benefit by it.

Our Congress makes me sick.
