Not to make light of a tragic situation, but I was thinking: it would be a whole lot easier on everyone if an asteroid dropped on Terri Schiavo.
At least then we wouldn't have to go through another week or two of constant death-watch news coverage. If an asteroid blew her to bits, the wacky fundamentalists who think that there's still a chance she'll recover (if only she lets JC into her heart) will be forced to return home, dejected.
Don't worry, though. Maybe when she dies the Bush brothers will encase her in carbonite like Han Solo and keep her propped up in the Oval Office as a monument to the Christian right. I'm sure Jeb will want to take the statue on the road during his 2008 presidential campaign.

terri and i were talking earlier (i know, i know... you say it's impossible), and she told me what SHE wants.
she wants a bomb the size of the earth -- with a cutout for her hospital bed -- dropped around her and detonated so that she can die in peace. oh, and she wants a refund on the feeding tube, too. she says the "food" tastes like crap and didn't help her "live" any better at all... oh, and if you shake her head around a little, you can hear her brain swishing like jello.

Bigotry at its finest. Imagine if somebody mentioned the "Jewish Left" instead of the Christian Right. They would be condemned at a horrible bigot. However, in this country, attacking Christians is mainstream.
