A 5 month old baby has been diagnosed with lukemia. But because the parents are not affluent enough the hospital is going to pull the plug.
Terri Schiivo got huge media attention for being beyond recovery and completly brain-dead. But this baby, a baby that can have its condition treated, and has a whole life ahead of it, gets nothing! No media attention, no protests, no Government legislation!
Is this the actions of a "pro life" government? Or has the Bush administration got all the publicity that they needed from the schiivo case!

What are your opinions...
