Culture of Death

Mark Alger has found this wonderful article that I think needs to be spread around as much as possible.

The American people know that the same people who wanted to pull the tube from Terri Schiavo want to be trusted not to pull the plug on grandma. Which is why they are appropriately skeptical of any hint that Obamacare would leave any power in federal hands to make those decisions. Four years ago, the Left was proud of its stance on withdrawing not just medical care but food and water itself from Terri Schiavo. That was their choice. If the price to be paid is a public in need of assurance that President Obama and his plan don’t share those values and won’t encourage the same thing, well, choices have consequences, and the voiceless dead can still haunt us in ways we had never foreseen.

The Democrats are the Party of Death, like it or not. It was the Democrats who demanded that Terry Shiavo die. It is the Democrats who insist that killing an unborn child for the convenience of the mother is somehow constitutional. It is the Democrats who talk about assisted suicide and euthanasia as somehow being fine and dandy.

Do we really want them creating a healthcare bill? Would you stake your life on it? How about the life of your parents?

What about the life of your children?
