Who else would I be talking about but Bill O’Reilly? And what else would he be speaking about than the Terri Schiavo (pronounced “skee – AH – voe”) fiasco? According to Bill, the current situation is lose-lose because; a) Terri will pass away due to her husband’s selfish hatred for her parents who only want their angel to live out her “natural” life, b) her husband will be vilified as a killer by all “decent” people for the rest of his life, c) the parents lose because they lost their legal fight, d) judges lose because they appear heartless, e) politicians lose because they didn’t intervene, f) right-to-lifers lose because the extreme wing of that group is acting like crazy fanatics, trying to break police lines to bring glasses of water to Terri in her hospice. Win-win for Mr. O’Reilly would be the husband giving authority over Terri to the parents so she can live out her “natural” life WITH her feeding tube. (I didn’t realize that polyurethane percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tubes occur in nature.) He calls this the “rational” and “compassionate” solution, and he’s quite adept at maintaining it — even in the face of the odd challenge from a listener/caller that he bravely never allows to make a rebuttal. His only way to deal with a perspective that differs from his own is to vilify it. The husband to him is not a man who wants to end the suffering of the woman he loves, but a killer. The ACLU is not a group nobly fighting to keep the Government out of our Private lives, and maintain the separation of Church and State; they are a band of immoral terrorists hell-bent on destroying everything good and pure about America. Wow. What an asshole.
