Jack Kevorkian and Conservative Sadism

Kevorkian has finally been released from prison just in time to live out his last days. He contracted Hepatitis C while researching blood transfusions in Vietnam, and it doesn't look like he'll live much longer than a year. One of the conditions of his release was that he not counsel or help anybody else who is dying and in pain.

After Kevorkian is dead, who knows if anyone else will take up his fight. Hopefully someone out there has the courage to fight against the sadistic, tyrannical notion conservatives have that life should be lived no matter how painful or humiliating. It's hard to listen to people who refuse to allow people to die in a time and manner of their choosing and not be convinced that they take a lot of pleasure in the idea of someone continuing to live despite their agony.

They claim to hold life as sacred, but are perfectly willing to watch it continue under twisted, humiliating and horrific conditions. To many of these people the American flag is sacred, and the flag code says, "When a flag is so worn it is no longer fit to serve as a symbol of the United States, it should be destroyed in a dignified manner." If you really regard something as sacred, you don't allow it to continue under undignified conditions. A person should be free to decide what is or is not dignified for them, and when they decide their life is so worn it is no longer fit to continue, they should be free to die in a dignified manner.

Evidence the Founding Fathers Were Not Christian

"Christianity is the most perverted system that ever shone on man."
- Thomas Jefferson

"The Christian god can easily be pictured as virtually the same god as the many ancient gods of past civilizations. The Christian god is a three headed monster; cruel, vengeful and capricious. If one wishes to know more of this raging, three headed beast-like god, one only needs to look at the caliber of people who say they serve him. They are always of two classes: fools and hypocrites."
- Ibid

"As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity, of Mussulmen; and, as the said States never entered into any war, or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties, that no pretext arising from religious opinions, shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries."
- Treaty of Tripoli (signed by John Adams)

Let the Right-Wing Shrieking Begin

Pathetic

Well it looks like after a lot of sound and fury signifying nothing, Bush will get his war funding, no questions asked.

Whether you like Democrats or not, you can't escape the fact that they are all a bunch of sackless jerk-offs.

Divide and Conquer

It was only a mater of time. Finally it's happening, the Republican party is turning against itself.

There are basically two kinds of Republicans, those who put capitalism above everything, and those who put capitalism second to things like "heritage," "morality" and "tradition." The former are in favour of Bush's immigration plan, the latter are strongly against it.

I'm hoping that the traditionalist Republicans break away from the rest and start their own party. Such a party will inevitably become overrun with bigots and never gain any popular, mainstream support. Once they're out of the picture, opposition to gay marriage, opposition to abortion rights, and asinine censorship laws will gradually go extinct.

Malkin and Her Sadistic Catch-22

Does she not realize that abortion providers are medical personnel who put medical confidentiality first, and should do so? What if a 13 year old girl had gone to her doctor instead of Planned Parenthood and told her doctor that her boyfriend was in his twenties? Forcing doctors to violate doctor-patient confidentiality would lead to thousands of girls not even bothering to go to doctors.

Of course Malkin and the rest of the fetus fuckers would love to see these girls kept out of doctors offices and "protected" from candid, comprehensive medical advice.

Should a Girl Have to Sabotage Her Boyfriend's Future to Save Her Own?

Michelle Malkin doesn't like how the MSM are ignoring investigative reporter Lila Rose. Rose posed as a 15 year old girl (in a state whose age of consent is 16) who had been impregnated by a 23 year old boyfriend, and went to Planned Parenthood to get an abortion. PP told her that if she filled out the application for an abortion and said she was 15, they would have to report it, meaning that her "boyfriend" would be arrested, but that if she lied on her application and said she was 16, she could get an abortion and PP would keep quiet about her being underage. This was all caught on camera and Planned Parenthood is threatening to sue.

Of course The Crazy People are going bat-shit because of this. They're upset that this isn't getting much mainstream attention and would much rather a young girl have to choose between destroying her life by giving birth to an unwanted child, which would mean fuck knows what kind of treatment at the hands of her parents, and destroying her boyfriend's life by subjecting him to a statutory rape charge. This is the kind of sadism that Jerry Falwell would be advocating if her were still choking back fifty Ding Dongs a day.
