I think the headline to this article alone says it all. After putting in his two cents worth on the Terri Schiavo case, looks like the Pope is going to land in her boat...

Report:

Pope may require feeding tube

Associated Press

VATICAN CITY — Pope John Paul II may have to return to the hospital to have a feeding tube inserted, an Italian news agency reported today. It stressed that no decision
had been made.

I am so waiting for the spectacle of protestors outside the Vatican once the tube is removed. Maybe Jeb Bush can make a deal with Interpol then and take custody of the Pope's quivering shell.

Unless, of course, Mr. Wojtyla has a living will. Which brings to mind the question: why are religious extremists so afraid of death? Don't they believe that the second Terri Schiavo dies, her little soul is getting FedEx'd to heaven, where she gets to live with God and Jesus and Mary and all the Saints and her dead great-aunt Martha?

Why do religious conservatives hate Terri Schiavo and want to see her suffer?

Maybe JP II will graciously donate his feeding tube to her instead, and kill two birds with one stone.
