Edited on Thu Oct-11-07 02:12 AM by Skip Intro
the right wing loons didn't use a brain-dead woman as a political prop, did they?

of course they 'effing did - bullshit hypocritical mfr's


this is a bit of blatant rage at the right wing mullahs like malkin - flat out scofing at the wellbeing of children while feigning concern for the chosen breed - just saw it that way - it took a while, but damn, the blatant, bloody hypocrisy seems paraded.

who the hell are these scumbags?

2. Well, it started out that way ...
... but quickly turned into an entire nation watching Bill Frist throw away any chance he ever had of running for the presidency.

So in the end, all worked out well.

3. Talk about a misguided campaign! They stepped into that one
without the slightest idea of what the facts were & after that tried to invent new facts.
That was back in the day when jr still grandstanded shit.

4. About that same time they pulled the plug on a young boy in Texas.
This was despite the protests of his mother. See, she couldn't pay so they took him off life support, thanks to state legislation provided by then-Governor George W. Bush.

'Hypocrite' just doesn't seem to be strong enough of a word.

5. Sun Hudson.
That was the kid's name. Useful info next time Freepig scum bring up Schaivo. The hypocrisy was mind-boggling.

Here's one lawyer's take...

Naturally, since the protagonists in that particular story were black, it received roughly .00001% of the attention given to the Schaivo circus.

6. I thought it was about parents who couldn't accept what had happened
to their child. They used politics - and it used them.
