Link to give info for those who don't.

The right wing lost their shit over this woman, demonstrating day after day after day.

She would be first to go in today's GOP world!

Unbelievable!

[Miguelito Loveless]

1. I remember it vividly

She was the prop of the moment.

2. Anybody who lived in PA at the time couldn't have missed it

thanks to Frothy.

Fortunately he was voted out off office by a 17% margin.

4. Remember it well

The following year with the brilliant ad campaign “he’s too extreme for PA” - I think implying he’s not too extreme for Alabama but too extreme for us. It worked and we showed him the door resoundingly.

[BumRushDaShow]

7. And it also came out that he wasn't even living in PA anyway

and his kids were attending school in VA I believe.

[FM123]

3. Yep, sure do. And you are so right, those hypocrites would probably insist upon it.

I remember reading an article last year about the judge who was on the case.

5. Remember it well

They were torches and pitchforks ...

Couldn’t accept the science or her family’s wishes

[malaise]

6. I'll never forget that madness

and it was madness

[Joinfortmill]

8. GOP are hypocrits.

[central scrutinizer]

9. Forced to live, encouraged to die

Sometimes you promote a pawn, sometimes you sacrifice a pawn

[Cosmocat]

10. Oh yeah

example 9,403,221 of this country indulging right wing fuck wittery ...

[NewDayOranges]

11. I mostly remember the way her husband was

SLANDERED by some of her family members on any opinion show that would host them.

That man should have sued!

[Brainfodder]

12. The hypocrite party, not a surprise?

Sure we have hypocrites too, but ours have SHAME usually.

[cos dem]

13. I'm reading "Idiot America" and he's got a whole section on this sordid story.

I do remember it, but to read some of the inside stories from within the hospice itself is really horrifying.
Bill Frist deserves to burn in hell for his part in creating the freak show.

[Butterflylady]

14. I well remember it.

Her parents gave him one heck of a time. Jeb Bush was governor at that time.

[recovering_democrat]

15. Horrible memory never forgotten

I remember most vividly Sean Hannity broadcasting live outside the hospice in which other families could not enjoy last days with their loved ones. And mad with the asshole driving boat trailer with Jesus on cross stretches across it. Been mad a few times. Only furious that time.

Getting closer to its horror every day now.

[AwakeAtLast]

17. I had completely blocked Hannity from my memory in this case

That should have ruined his career. Should have.

[deek]

16. I remember

The disabled will be the first to be "let go" during the rations.
