Dying and Cloning
Drudge has a couple of items that interest me this morning, items that you might not even hear about anywhere else today. He’s headlining the fact that aging, ailing Rehnquist may not support Schiavo’s right to die. And then there’s a cloning story, a favorite of Drudge. The first cloned buffalo is born over in China. It’s not surprising to me at all that the cloning story is grouped just under the Schiavo headlines. Life, death, and cloning…

I don’t think the headline that Rehnquist might “shun” Terri Schiavo is a reference to the fact that the Chief Justice may not “support her ‘right to die’.” Drudge has been opposed to the decisions to withhold her nutrition, so my guess would be that the “shun” reference was in relation to the probability that the Supreme Court will deny further appeal.
Sunday night radio show: “Give her her food back!” and “what husband in his right mind” would do something like this?
Just a different perspective…

Good point. Thanks. If he never hears the case, he can’t really support it right? But you’re right, I could have stated it differently. Personally, I was more interested today in the grouping of news items than the details of the Schiavo case. It’s an uncomfortable case all around, including the fact that the US Congress is again sticking its nose in a private matter.
