"This bill would support the taking of innocent human life in the hope of finding medical benefits for others," Bush said Wednesday afternoon. "It crosses a moral boundary that our decent society needs to respect. So I vetoed it."
I am so mad I can't even formulate words.
About Me
- TheatreChick93
- Massachusetts, United States
- I am 41 years old. I have been married to my husband for 15 years. We have a son who was born in April 1996. We live in Central Massachusetts with our dog Maggie (a black lab we adopted from the animal rescue league) and our cat Sam (a stray that adopted us) I graduated from college with a BFA in Theatre in 1993 (hence the name) and for a few years pursued a career as an actress. Then life took over and I got married, had a baby and decided to get a "real" job. In November 2004, I was diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson's disease. In December 2004, I was hospitalized for surgery to remove an ectopic pregnancy. In December 2009, I was laid off from my job. In June 2010, my son was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome at the age of 14. Stick around to see what happens next!

It is obscene in so many ways.
In 1969 my grandfather died after suffering from the disease which we know as the one that now torments you in your own life. After his death, the doctors asked my grandmother whether she would allow them to remove his brain and study it. She refused, saying that he'd 'suffered enough.' My mother, married to their son for but a year, never forgave that.
God gave us the knowledge and the science and the tools to unravel these mysteries and ease the suffering of others. God's favorite president is going to have to explain why he not only did nothing but actively refused to use this gift.
Exactly!
Thanks for commenting.
I've never had a "issue" effect me so much. I guess when it becomes personal it changed alot. :o)
