I Get Snail Mail
A friend in Pennsylvania who hates computers, sent a letter informing me:
“The Super Puke, The King, is coming to Pittsburgh next week to give some money to some faith-based group; he is trying to buy his way out of Hell.”
He refers to most elected officials as “pukes” because that’s what the drill instructors at Parris Island called recruits before they earned the right to be called Marines. He earned the right and was called a Marine. For the record the only people he doesn’t think are “pukes” are Russ Feingold and Barbara Boxer because they show some guts, which is an attribute highly prized by ex-Marines and most veterans.

Legislature Seeks To Extend Purgatory
The Florida legislature is back in session and in addition to planning tax cuts for the wealthy investor class and doing what they can to eliminate the rights of citizen initiatives, they are taking another step towards appeasing Randall Terry’s Inquisition.
This time they are trying to change rules on removing feeding tubes. CNN covers it in this story on the Schiavo case. The changes will prevent the removal of feeding tubes unless someone explicitly states in their living will that such action be taken.
They say that food and water are a basic human right, but they make no attempt to fund this requirement. Terri Schiavo, if feeding is continued, will probably die as result of complications from bedsores and be in pain, if she can sense pain, because no physician will prescribe analgesics in this case, for fear of being accused of euthanasia.
