Hi Berberry,
It is kind of sickening, (no pun intended) that many of these 'right to lifers' parading and picketting in they're self rightiousness get so self absorbed in this case. And you are right the hypocracy is laughable, I heard one man was arrested for holding up a gun store in the hopes of "freeing Terry." People in much more dire circumstances starving while crusaders wade and spend hundreds of thousands to save some beached dolphins. It seems that any cause that the media get ahold of becomes THE story and the true issues are smeared. Everyday in America feeding tubes are removed, ventelators turned off and lifesaving medications discontinued. But give a face to it and you have yourself a media frenzy. Americans just love reality shows.
