(82,849 posts)They demonstrated without any information about Terri Schiavo's condition, holding up signs that said "Feed Terri" and giant spoons, which would have dispatched her body to the Great Beyond. Republican politicians, including the Senate Majority Leader, Dr. Frist, weighed in with completely uninformed medical opinions based on 10 seconds of carefully-barbered videotape. They fought through the state and federal courts to overturn the legal rights of Terri's long-suffering husband in favor of Terri's parents who couldn't come to terms with their daughter's demise. They tortured Terri and her husband for years in the name of "pro life" and congratulated each other on their piety.
Still sickening when I think about it today.

(36,793 posts)Republicans are in favor of killing living babies and have done so.
Pro-life is a myth.
The supposed pro-lifers cared naught when the state of Texas (republican gov, republican Prez) deliberately killed living baby Sun Hudson against the mother's wishes because he was an inconvenience to the state.
It is not a matter of life to the supposed pro-lifers.
It is a matter of control.
