yeah, she's not a vegetable that I've seen. She's just completely retarded.
There is the same slippery slope argument (though an actual valid one in this case) that people use for not wanting gay marriage. If we let her die, then what about....
Suicide is illegal. People don't have the right to end their own lives. So start from there.
Jack Kervorkian is in jail for letting terminally ill people kill themselves a few months early and spare themselves the pain.
If this lady can not be fed, then what about other retarded folk, or quadrapalgics. Husbands and wives can just say "stop feeding them".
There are legally allowed DNR requests, but intentionally killing someone? That's not cool. And the way they are doing it, is the least humane way imaginable. Hell even Hitler through people in gas chambers to kill them rather than having them starve to death.
Now, the other thing, someone please explain to me how exactly the Religous Right is "getting out of control" when the religous aspect of Easter is dropped? When the holiday, much like Xmas, started as the holiest of holy days to celebrate their Supreme Lord and Master becomes bastardized and celebrated for something competely different, and completely removes all mention of what the thing was started for initially?
