A) So, when President Bush says, “In cases where there are serious doubts and questions, the presumption should be in the favour of life,” does he have Iraq in mind?

B) The case has for the last decade gone through 17 court sessions and Appellate Judicial review with 14 individual Judge advocated Rulings Honoring the Spouse’s Wish. We have the rule of law here, and the Republican Congress is playing politics, pandering to its religious right wing. The public already wants the right to death. Tom DeLay — and rightly so, in my opinion.

C) I don’t intend to carry water for Michael Schiavo, who may or may not be the kind of man I’d want my daughter to marry. But it’s problematic who makes the call on this one. Certainly, the Bible tells us that a man leaves his parents and becomes one with his wife (Gen. 2:28), which suggests to me that the husband (or wife) makes the call.

D) I don’t want to hear protests about playing God; without human internvention, Ms. Schiavo would have been dead years ago.
