TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Invoking a law rushed through the Legislature earlier in the day, Gov. Jeb Bush on Tuesday ordered a feeding tube reinserted into a brain-damaged woman at the center of one of the nation's longest and most bitter right-to-die battles.
The bill was designed to save the life of Terri Schiavo, whose parents have fought to keep her alive. Her husband, Michael Schiavo, says she would rather die.
You've gotta hand it to the Republicans--you may disagree with their policies, but you can't deny that they LOVE LIFE!
In fact, AmCop has just learned from a reliable source that the 2004 Republican National Convention in New York City will include a special presentation called "Celebrate Life." "Celebrate Life" will feature a panel of special "guests":
Terri S., the brain-dead woman whose life has been saved by Governor Bush's brave order for her feeding tube to be "reinserted."
Bobby C., a schizophrenic death-row inmate, will reveal how life-affirming antipsychotic medications have restored his humanity so that he can enjoy the dignity of being executed like a "normal" human.
Jenny T., a frozen blastula who has been saved from genetic research, thus allowing her to continue her life unmolested in a laboratory freezer.
John R., a small container of ash recovered from the site of a terrorist attack, who will demonstrate how the G.O.P. "umbrella" is so inclusive that even our friends "on the other side of the mortal divide" can be fully-functional participants in the Bush 2004 Re-Election Campaign.
Ahmed Q., a portion of exploded torso, will discuss the benefits of his newly "liberated" lifestyle.
Bechtel N.A., a corporation, will exemplify the non-discriminatory principle of the Equality of God's Creatures, showing how in God's America a corporation has just as many rights as any other "person."
And for the finale of "Celebrate Life," President Bush himself will show how he has overcome his status as a "corpse" to lead America to Victory in the War on Terrorism!
Terri, Bobby, Jenny, John, Ahmed, Bechtel, and the President will then join together in singing "God Bless America" accompanied by a chorus of African babies each holding the condom that DIDN'T prevent them from being able to live. The chorus will be conducted by Dick Cheney via "live" video feed.
I hope to see all of you there! In the meantime, remember to keep enjoying the gift of life.
