>> I Want You to Hurt Like I Do (Randy Newman)
His brilliant satiric parody of feelgood songs like "We Are The
World."
>> Here Come the Men in Gray (The Kinks)
An ode to bureaucracy.
>> Hymn 43 (Jethro Tull)
A song about modern Christianity. Perfect for Good Friday.
>> It's Time (Elvis Costello)
Pure, undiluted misogynistic hate. Totally indefensible. Puts
Eminem to shame. This song is so politically incorrect that I'll
probably be subpoenaed by a Congressional investigation for even
mentioning its existence.

Were this true, she would have flatlined a long, long time ago.
However, it is true that there is spinal fluid in key areas of her
brain.

Semantics. And not terribly accurate.

Take your own advice. Verify the facts.
We humanists must demand objective truth. Fact is, science doesn't
know enough about the human brain to know for sure when a damaged
brain is incapable of rerouting neural pathways. A "critical mass"
of brain activity must transpire for even minimal consciousness to
occur--that much is known.
When I got past the emotion, I realized that I have no strong
opinion about pulling Terri Schiavo's plug. This is essentially a
custody battle.
It's a shame that the U.S. Congress and President Bush didn't hold
an emergency session regarding the countless legions worldwide who
are dying a slow, painful death because of dehydration and
starvation.

Two reasons,
1) They are mostly "darkies"
2) they can't vote in US elections.
