Maestro!!!
May I touch the hem of your garment?

Really, a coalition of Jesse Jackson, Bill Clinton, Randall Terry and Ralph Nadar?
Might as well call a meeting of the Hellfire Club. Maybe Ward Churchill will come out for Terri.

I wrote this elsewhere--

This is like watching a train wreck, or better, a B-movie about a horrific genetic experiment gone wrong, the right inexorably morphing into the despised left, an Army of Darkness, zombies having lost the capacity for independent thought and reason, lurching forward under the command of the Beast of the Apocalypse, a fell and putrid chimera composed of equal parts of Randall Terry and Jesse Jackson.

I for one am thankful that you haven't posted anything about the "Schiavo affair." It's nice to come to a place that makes me laugh. BTW, I am now the proud owner/bearer of a Beautiful Atrocities shirt.

Who the hell is Hundred Percenter?

So wait. Lemme get this straight: we're now going to be famous for the folks that DON'T link to us?

FINALLY!! A category in which I trump all you suckas. w00t!

Seriously: what. the fuck. ever.

yawn...
Wha? You were de-linked too? Jeebus Allah Christi, this is getting to be a crisis!

Oh, wait...it was just that farking tool who did it...I smell a bastard who wants hits on his site with this action....where the fuck are the virii files?...

I dislike butt-kissers no matter their political positions. At least a principled opponent I can respect. I don't know Glenn and can't pretend to pass judgment on him, but as a general rule I think it's better to stick to your guns unless proven wrong - not punished.

Instapundit delinked you too Jeff? I hadn't noticed –I will confess that my last visit to IP was back when they made only text-browsers.

Of course, if Glenn had planned on linking to me before I posted this comment, I... I...
I whole-heartedly flip-flop. ;)

Me and Jeff. Together forever at last.

"Maestro!!!

hahaha ditto here! I am definitely linking with beautiful atrocities now.

As a relatively new blogger I still don't know too many of the established bloggers out there. I usually don't link to other bloggers till I've taken enough time to explore their sites to get familiar with their MO. There are certain blogs that I definitely would never link to...the BIG blogs that feed on "ugly atrocities" and are purely sensation driven. I avoid them like the plague. I have no desire to inherit their ugly following and I'm absolutely terrified of their hate mailers. (;

BTW I haven't said a word about the Schiavo case either. I'm so disgusted with that whole bloody circus, makes me wanna beat the crap out of whoever started it. I personally have experienced an almost identical case with my ex-husband's mother about 10 years ago. It was handled as a family matter and it took almost a year for everyone to agree to let her go.

Read this and tell me you're certain she's a vegetable, a slab of meat.

Since starving a disabled yet otherwise healthy human being to death simply because our culture has reasoned it 'kinder' (as a young women I heard the same argument thirty years ago by the pro-abortionists movement even repeated such small-minded thinking myself, kinder to abort than to bring a child into this world and have it face a life of impoverished misery) who will be next on the list of lives terminated because our culture determined it kinder to do so?

How about those suffering in horrible misery due to full-blown AIDS? Much like the flu virus, there is no cure to the AIDS disease and, no matter how brilliant we perceive ourselves to be, there most probably will never be a cure. As in the case of babies growing in the womb and now the disabled, how close is our culture to embracing the notion that it is kinder to terminate the lives of those infected with AIDS rather than having them suffer from a life lacking quality.

Since our culture is developing a rather narrow-minded view of what is considered life, keep in mind that the next person our culture deems LIFELESS just may very well be you.

Palooka:

I read the report above. It made me sick to my stomach and so sad. Reminds me of the mistakes doctors made in the early 19th century when they declared a patient dead, only to find them digging themselves out of their graves a few days later. Chilling. We are still so primitive.

If we start killing all the disabled people what will become of all the newly unemployed CNAs? The gay discos will really suffer. And what will become of all those years of research to restore damaged brains if there are no longer subjects to study or cure?

One of the most striking aspects of the Shiavo spectacle, in my opinion, is the assumption that individuals are all islands unto themselves, that we are not part of a larger, integrated system of relationships. Handicapped persons--even those in a PVS-- are as relevant to society as anyone; in fact, their contribution to humanity is probably a hell of lot greater than the jackass judges who got this thing wrong from the start.

Terri Shiavo is dead.

Actually, Palooka, I'm not interested in debating the subject, which is why I never posted on it. This piece is a SATIRE about people like Hundred Percenter, who interpret my lack of posting as being insufficiently zealous. Perhaps he noticed I linked to the article by Buckley, that staunch Catholic, who said the language of killing & genocide was grotesque, disgraceful, & inappropriate.

Rule: anytime you see Holocaust metaphors being trotted out, by either the Left or the Right, you can be sure their arguments are hollow & bankrupt, which is why they resort to hyperbole (which only dilutes the horror & evil of genocide as actually practiced by the Nazis)

I knew it was satire, but your point comes across loud and clear. I don't want to drag you into a debate, but if you're going to operate under the assumption Terri's a vegetable, then I would recommend you read that affadavit by the neorologist I posted. It's not my intention to defend Hundred Percenter or to give a tirade. Gotta run.

I am thinking about promoting a pay per view metal cage grudge-match fight until comatose battle of the extremists. Moonbats of the left vs. wingnuts of the right.

$49.95.

Very nice indeed; I'm sure Glenn will say "heh."

Good luck on Righttalk today.

Pretty sad when people need a translation for "THIS SITE IS A SATIRE, STUPID".

Good post, Jeff. Thanks for the laugh. And death to the Instapundit.

heh.
