" Pete old boy, we love you Brits..." God's great chain of being demands you love your social superiors.

And those among us who dwell in the realm outside of reality. Like poor confused Pete... Pip Pip old boy...and God save David Bowie!

More like "God piss on the queen"! Stiff upper lip. Eh, what?

ewwwwwwwww............. no pee pee zone

and this is why I posted the article in the first place.

A very good article, it is... Timely.

You stupid bunch of peasants, you think you are being witty but you look like buffalo.

When will you get it through your thick, stupid, ignorant british skull that we could actually care less what you think! I care about what you think about as much as Bill Clinton is a republican. Which is to say ZERO! Go away with your dumb ass you ignorant troll.

"thick, stupid, ignorant british"

I have never seen such terrible prejudice against my countrymen. It is no wonder Americans are perceived as arrogant when this is the typical Yanky opinion. You are not welcome in Britain anymore.

"about as much as Bill Clinton is a republican"

Bill Clinton was actually a Republican, he managed to keep this secret from the Democrats for years.

"And the British couldn't handle the Irish"

The British army (the most highly trained in the world) handled the Irish in Ireland very well. It was only Irish terrorists (many funded by the 'democratic' Americans) that infiltrated Britain that caused problems.

And BTW the british army SUCKS! Do not equate them with the SAS. And BEFORE you run off at the mouth show PROOF that americans democrat or otherwise were funding the IRA

Britain versus America aside, I feel lost regarding this hysteria about Mrs. Shiavo.

I am a cancer survivor in my seventies, and I have given plenty of thought about the inevitability of the end of life. When I underwent my most recent cancer surgery, I left specific, written instructions that, if my husband felt that the situation were hopeless, then all medical treatment was to be stopped. This specifically included hydration and feeding tubes.

I never for a moment thought of this as murder or suicide. It is a matter of coming when the Lord calls. God has determined that we all must die, and we must accept this ultimate limit.

I understand that Mrs. Shiavo left no written instructions, so I see a difference between her situation and mine. But Christian teaching and the law are together on this one -- the matrimonial bond comes first. Spouses, not parents, speak for you when you cannot speak for yourself.

The sad thing is that it is possible for a spouse to misrepresent you. Who knows? Maybe Mr. Shiavo did, and, if so, I have no doubt he will burn for all eternity. However, for government to intrude on such a family matter would be quite a serious thing. The evidence of spousal misreprentation must be very strong, or else you are opening the floodgates for all kinds of meddling. In Mrs. Shiavo's sad case, the parents brought a variety of questions about this arrangement to the courts, under our system of government, the correct place to raise the issue. The courts refused to intervene. The courts may or may not have made the right call. I have no inside information. But I do know the difference between Naziism and a decision by the courts to leave a matter to the decision of the spouse.

I, personally, am much more worried about government decision making than I am about spousal decision making, and so I am not going to get into hysterics about courts refusing to overrule a husband.
