Society Ignores Terri Schiavo But Health Care Rationing Not Going Away

Society Ignores Terri Schiavo But Health Care Rationing Not Going Away | LifeNews.com: Last week, former U.S. President, George W. Bush released a memoir called “Decision Points.” He revisits a number of official and personal events, as well as choices that shaped both his presidency and his attitudes in private life.

Bobby Schindler, brother of Terri Schiavo, "was disappointed to learn that Bush’s actions in March of 2005—that led to the passage of Terri’s Law—were not a part of this account. . . . President Bush left his home in Texas—in the middle of the night—to return to Washington, DC, in order to sign this bill into law."

Some would praise him as a pro-life hero and a friend to the disabled. Others sharply criticized him for involving himself in a state circuit case. Yet nearly all would remark that his actions were extraordinary and historic. Why, then, has Bush not recounted that experience in his memoir?
