I can't believe it. Terri Schiavo died, I am totally outraged. I can't believe some people can be so heartless. I really hope her family is doing alright.
I consider FOX to be somewhat conservative. You haven't been to the United States and seen ultra-conservative groups if you think FOX is more than somewhat conservative Thomas dear.
I don't consider Liberals left-winged and what is so wrong with being called left-winged? Conservatives are called right-winged. It is just an analogy. I don't put too much weight in to labels.
If I remember correctly...Murdoch is from Austrailia, then spent time living in the UK...ahem blame Austrailia...ahem ahem..
;)
I know how right-winged groups can be, but that doesn't mean that makes the less extreme groups any less conservative.
Secondly, the 'liberals' thing was just a general remark, not aimed at you specifically. It just seems to be the popular opinion that 'liberal' and 'left-winged' are synonymous, which is not true. Nothing is wrong with being left-winged, but I think someone needs to explain that to certain people high up in the hierachy of power. Furthermore, I don't blaim any country for Murdoch. Just his parents. They ought to never have had children ;-)
Oh Oliver, that is horrible *wants to cry* - what you say does make sense - the hospital was also giving her a morphine drip via IV for the pain - pain for what? Obviously she did feel pain while starving to death - this is just horrible....
No, giving morphine is kind of routine in cases like this. They know it's not going to worsen anything so they basically figure "what would it hurt?"
When the autopsy is performed and the world knows just how damaged her brain was, I hope people will just realize they were wrong and move on.
You shouldn't play god. Terri would've died a long time ago without the feeding tube. If you're so damn religious, then people should die a natural death, not perpetuate this grotesque masquerade of life when all that's there is flesh and bones with no mind or soul.
Oh, and I am sure that the "grieving" husband went merrily home to his girlfriend and their 2 children - how ironic, Terri was in fertility counseling and Michael got a settlement from that malpractice suit when that doctor did not detect the chemical inbalance from the eating disorder she was allegedly suffering from. Well, Michael has his kids now doesn't he?
What, do you think Michael ENJOYED this? That he was eager for her to die because he hated her and wanted to punish her parents? What kind of twisted mind do you have?
and that settlement? First off, most of it has been spent on her medical care and lawyers over 15 years because of this crap. Second, Michael has NO control over that settlement money because the judgment was to Terri NOT Michael. A Judge decided what that money was spent on, not Michael.
Try again.
There is not peace in this country.
I'm not sure how anyone can say in the US the media give us one sided information and in the same breath say how ignorant and one sided Bush is. Our media in the United States is very liberal. Bush is conservative. There is only one national news channel in the States that can be considered somewhat conservative, and that is FOX news.
LittQueenie: you need to relax a bit, you are getting extremely fanatical to the point of insanity. Cool down a bit, then try again.

sorry Casper -I posted before I added my comments. My ridiculous comments are above.

I AM NOT PLAYING GOD, FREAK. AND don't bring my religion into this - what's your problem??? SHE HAD NO SOUL???? WHO ARE YOU TO SAY THAT? You scare me.....
You do realize, Caspar, that the US really only has 2 political parties. Unlike other European countries, where one party puts together a coalition of smaller parties, we generally have an either/or government here.
It only makes sense that if the conservatives are "right," than the liberals are "left." You make too much out of it.
That's just the presidential elections. The US has loads of smaller parties, e.g. the Green Party. I believe there are even some towns with socialist mayors.
