1. It's Palin's fault-- she said it first, so it's OK for him to have said it.
That's what I heard him say.

And he's on the panel of six.

Unbelievable.

4. Dear grassley, defend THIS...
In 1999, then-Gov. Bush signed the Advance Directives Act, which lets a patient's surrogate make life-ending decisions on his or her behalf. The measure also allows Texas hospitals to disconnect patients from life-sustaining systems if a physician, in consultation with a hospital bioethics committee, concludes that the patient's condition is hopeless.
