People, it's all about the fear.
The message of the Schiavo case is "it can happen to you." Fear is the mindkiller. While it is an issue this society has never dealt with definitively, it is being used to keep people in line and to detract from the anniversary of the Iraq invasion. Orange alerts no longer work.

1. Schiavo, or whatever its all about keeping burning issues off the table..
the wingers have been stewing over the Schiavo case on hate-radio for years, but now they needed it or something like it, to cover up the high crimes committed against the People by BushAmerika Corp.

2. It's all about the living will
when this case first started getting coverage, I made my first living will and gave copies to everybody I know. I don't want to be like that, practically dead and being used by religious whackos.
