DESERT HOT SPRINGS, Calif., March 23 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The recent nationwide media exposure and concern over prolonging the life of Florida woman Terri Schiavo has created an unprecedented demand for LawDepot's online Living Will documents. The online automated forms firm has been inundated with an overwhelming amount of emails, phone calls and requests for Living Wills and similar forms, such as Powers of Attorney and Last Wills & Testaments.

(It is backfiring big time)

3. Isn't this the exact opposit outcome they wanted?

From every one of them that I've heard, they want everyone to be kept alive for as long as possible, but any means possible. Hmmm, unexpected consequences I guess.

7. Scary thought...

But that's what's behind all the legislation and the other attendant hooha--absolute rejection of the mere idea of death itself, i.e., stark terror about their own mortaliy, denial... cowardice about the truth of impermanence that gives life its meaning.

That pious pile of pigshit "Reverend" James Dobson actually did declare this week, "There is no right to die." That's his bottom line. That's the truth about their phony "culture of life"--it's really a culture of fear, and I don't think it's an accident. Keep them scared and you keep them docile.

:grr:

Coming between a husband and a wife, too.
