13. Can we not sue them for violating their oaths of office?

I mean, what the hell did they do with the 10th Amendment, acknowledge it and say, who the "f" cares?

:shrug:

Hastert is a moron! They all are idiots and lying in congress during debates such as tonights should be as punishable as a witness lying to congress during hearings! :mad:

12. After her testimony before Congress, of course.

Maybe she could write a book about the Scott Peterson case. Those books are selling big right now... might even get her an interview with Matt Lauer.

8. Of course did any of the fuckwit fascists

ever bother to go visit the poor woman?

Or do they feel they have the authority to make a diagnosis after viewing three minutes of a heavily edited four-hour video?

17. One of the pontificating GOPers, Gingrey of Georgia,

Edited on Mon Mar-21-05 02:07 AM by elperromagico

keeps touting the fact that he's a doctor.

Well, yes he is. But as Ron Reagan got him to admit, he is an OB-GYN. Neurology is not exactly his stock-in-trade. Now, if poor Terri has a yeast infection...

I expect soon to see someone with a doctorate in music get up and say, "I'm a doctor, and I can tell you that there's nothing wrong with this woman."

19. The GOP was blatant in trotting out their doctors tonight.

Unfortunately, they could be stripped of their licenses for making these kind of diagnoses.

Disgusting. All of them--Democrats and Republicans.

Think about it...what's the point of having next-of-kin? It just doesn't matter anymore.

21. This is what happens when you put the government in the hands

of people who feel that government shouldn't interfere so much in the lives of its citizens...

Well, that's what they say, anyway.

9. I once shot a snake in the head

Hours later, its skin still contracted when I touched it. But the snake had no idea what was going on.

10. Actually, she does. Problem is....

Edited on Mon Mar-21-05 01:52 AM by sonicx

she has no control over it (no cerebral cortex) and doesn't feel emotion. the 'smile' is not because she's happy and the 'laugh' is among many noises she randomly makes.

If they let them stop support on every brain dead person the repubs would never win another election.
