    David,

    Point well taken. I don’t know how anyone could place a dollar figure on a life.

    And, honestly, I don’t think I want any person or group to be in a position to place a concrete dollar figure on another persons life.

    The Republican Party has always been prolife. I didn’t change it, I joined it.

    Oh, and it was Robert Byrd (D-WVA) that was Grand Cyclops of the KKK. No Republicans that I know of were.

    Name calling helps you win arguments and gain the respect of others, so always be sure to call people names when you disagree with them.

    We need such a constitutional amendment due to the “full faith and gredit clause” of a document you have never read, called the Constitution. Federal judges appointed by Clinton and Carter will eventually rule that sodomists who “marry” in MASS must have their “marriages” recognized in normal states because of this clause. So yes, we need to amend the Constitution to protect normal people and children from sodomists and their enablers.

    SP,

    Thank you for agreeing. There are some people who acting like this family has taken advantage of the system. All they did was ask the system to assign fault and then render a money amount. The fault part was likely easy. The money would not have been. I know most jurors probably reflected back on their own lives and tried to come up with things this kid would not be able to enjoy. What’s sad is, if you asked each one to come up with a figure and then ask them to change spots they wouldn’t. Hard task but to ask the jurors and again one I would not want to be a part of. Like they always have said in claims, it is much cheaper to kill someone than it is to cause catastrophic injury.

    Rosie, Mary B. and Sheila Jackson Lee,

    I don’t know any of you, but if you’re for the killing of unborn children and for homosexual marriages, then there are at least 2 things we don’t agree upon. If not agreeing with your secular progressive agenda makes me a hypocrite, then I guess I’m a hypocrite.

    Ah yes, Sheila Jackson Lee:
    In 2003, Lee complained that the names of hurricanes were too “lily white” (how can a name be white? Is Lee stereotyping? Surely not…), and demanded that more ‘black’ names be used.

    On a visit to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Lee, a member of the House Science Committee’s space subcommittee, asked if the Mars Pathfinder had taken an image of the flag Neil Armstrong planted there in 1969.

    Are you as smart as she is?

    So very true about the claim comment. It’s cheaper for the victim to die.

    Also, I want to thank you for a very well thought out discussion. Unfortunately, many of the online discussions turn to name calling and insults.

    Thank you.

    As the Lord said, “Those who hate me love death.” It has nothing to do with “theocracy,” though. One needn’t be a theocrat to want to prevent innocent babies from being drawn and quartered in utero.

    I don’t spend much time on this site but when I do, I usually try to add my two cents. I typically read all the entries before commenting. It’s funny how the first 10-15 logs are actually about the facts of the article but then the others take over and all so often the topic at the end is “insults” and “politics”.

    Thanks for the comments and enjoyed sticking to the facts of the article.
