And so now......

Congress steps in for a sunday midnight vote, and Bush returns from his crawford texas vacation, (he looked pissed getting off the plane), to sign a bill for a feeding tube to be re-inserted into a woman in a vegetative state, when the Florida courts have already ruled it could be taken out, per her wishes.

Why are they doing this?
I am completely confused.
What is their real agenda?

Can someone give me a clue as to how to understand this?
It doesn't seem right to me.........seems very invasive of personal privacy.....

what's your take?

Hest.... with these type of issues, the Bushites fancy themselves as proponents of some kind of "culture of life" (I think Bush used this description, or phrase, in one of the debates). However, this "culture of life" doesn't seem to apply to their foreign policy, which is saturated with human "collateral damage" for the greater good in their aggressive geopolitical chess game....

Go figure. I know hypocrisy when I see it.

they do it because it is happy news, makes nice headlines, drives the war right off the front page. a mass distraction. I found a little blurb about Iraq on page 8 of the local Hearst Rag. A culture of death mr mnaz, it is a culture of death, but as you said they call it life. I forgot the mantra, war is peace, slavery is freedom, death is life? They are such honorable men.

But I am happy, don't want to be no sour puss, not to rain on nobodies parade, don't it make you wish you was a hindu. so simple so easy, its just karma, every cause has its effect, there is no reason, it's just life. It will work out in the long run, when the sun burns out, when the lights go out for me, life goes on.

It is hypocrisy, blatent hypocrisy.
It makes me sick to my gut, this whole charade.

But I've been choosing positivity lately, for fear of going nuts.
So, for positivity's sake, at least it's all making me more thick-skinned than I ever imagined I would be.
