Just one question: If Terri had been black, would this have been done condoned and accepted -- not only by the Death Cult; but would her husband (say, had he been black too) have been permitted "by the community" to get away with what he has?
No. Ever since Jesse Jackson showed up; I didn't jump onboard the usual "photo op" line; and because I've detected for some while a newer "live theatre" modus of operation on the aisle of Left.
He couldn't "save a white woman". The imps would like to harangue me over my insensitivity to the "tenderness" JJ felt for Terri -- and oh how he so tried to intervene.
Poppycock. The only time I've ever witnessed Jesse Jackson be "neutral" (so to speak) is when he's shaking down corporations for moola.
Can you imagine, only white, possibly GOP-voter-type women cannot be saved by the Careful Ministrations of the Death Cult.
What amazes me too is that a large Catholic Wing in the west voted for Kerry....
Back to it: Darken Terri's skin color, and let your mind walk using the patterns engrained over the last 30 years. Would this situation have been "legally" permissible to get this out of control within the boundaries of justice, fairness?
In the quota system: being a white woman, in some states, is still worth one additional point. Being a black woman is a twofer, etc.
Imagine the headlines: "Husband orders "pull the feeding tube" on black wife." Death Cult lawyer agrees. Judge Greer agrees.
Of course, you are free to mix and match the coupling: black wife, white husband. But add the same mix.. white lawyers, white judge(s)...
Those who love quotas, are no doubts fairly confident of the subliminals.
Adultery, the argument being used most often, by pro-Terri supporters just doesn't cut any ice with the left: It's a life-style choice, remember? And trying to shame them over matters irrelevant to them -- well, kudos for trying, at any rate.
But what are lefties most ashamed of? Their past in supporting Jim Crow laws?
I'll wager that if you change the skin color of the recently deceased -- it looks quite different in the public eye.
Remember the left's chant: Race is Not Dead!
And Hillary said not a word... my, my. Mrs New "Lease" on Life Herself. She stayed out of the way so she in no way would even be remotely near the "tarnish those infernal Republicans for INTERFERRING!" obvious media campaign.
Father Neuhaus' words come to mind... First they came for the Catholics.. but I did not protest, because I wasn't a Catholic.... etc. will still have little effect on those driving this recent matter. MSM in other countries will assuredly not get all the facts straight and will assure their own country men:
"Yes, President Bush has ordered the death of one of his own citizens" and "Democrats obeyed the law!" And we'll hear newer ads and hues and cries for "shade grown" this and that.
It will be bad. But it will float away. One cannot erase what has been positively enacted in Iraq and Afghanistan and even remotely come close to a connect with the Terri Schiavo case. No, it'll get a bit more gossipy... "voices on the winds", so to speak.
Terri was not tried in court. But she was tried in the court of man's heart. And she was found "wanting". And she was ordered to death.
I can hear Atticus Finch weeping in a corner behind me...
