Lemme get this str8: repukes want to cut malpractice awards,
but don't want Schiavo and others to die when the hospital or doctor fucks up?!

Who the living fuck pays the damn bills then? And what if the family cannot?

5. Not ironic. Moronic. But not as moronic as
those who still support this.

2. It's more that they want control of WHO lives or dies
It's a repackaged form of eugenics. They want to force medical treatment on some and euthanize others. Point being, they want the State to have this power/control to decide and deprive citizens of their right to privacy.

A few weeks ago, they pulled the plug on the black baby against the parent's wishes. Recently, they cut funding for Vets who are on life supports.

It fits nicely with their Fascist theme.

6. It's the New Order...
We're to become soldiers...

until we're nuked by the rest of the world, seeing that in terms of conventional forces, they spend much less than we do.

3. That is the family's problem

They should have been more responsible. If only they were good people like the "compassionate conservatives," they would have no problem paying their bills.

Since they often blame the victims for the victims' problems, they see no need to help them.
