as mean as it sounds it would only be fitting it the kid came out a toad and we could hold it up to the tea-party and say. Yippee! Now we can pay for its life for ever and ever until god kills it. Good sound financial planning.

Why would anyone have to pay the bills?   Dead people don't pay debts.

Nope, but their families will.

Quote from: "The Skeletal Atheist"I'm sort of morbidly curious as to how the kid would even turn out. From the article it says the mom was without oxygen for about an hour, so I wonder if the kid would be able to recover from such, or would he/she be mentally retarded provided he/she even lived at all.
I've been wondering the same thing. This kid could be extremely messed up, but theres no way to know. An abortion might very well be the gentler option.

As a male I will always maintain my stand that abortion is the right for women to choose. Unfortunately this world still has a lot of repressive male shitheads that think they can abuse and subjugate women all because they rule over them and gaaaaaaawd said they could. I yearn for the day that such men are tossed into the dustbin of history.

"...............unless the mother is on life support, in which case who really gives a shit about the fetus?"

Good to see conservative lawmakers are staying consistent on their moral outrage over the "murder" of unborn children. Oh, wait...

This does not seem to connect with the article? In the article they are consistent in this moral outrage... it's the parents who want to take her off life support and end the fetus' life with the mother's. The conservatives are trying to keep the fetus alive despite this.

Oh I misread it, thought it said lawmaker's supported it. Nvm.

Could you imagine if the kid became a mass murderer? He/she grows up in Texas, gets all the guns, alcohol, and Bruce Willis movies it can possibly take, goes to a evangelical megachurch that preaches hate and prejudice, and because Texas teaches revissionist history and pseudo-science, he/she embarks on a mission from gawd and starts killing everything in sight. Of course the opposite could happen and the kid could grow up and find a cure for teapartyism!

Can we give Texas back to Mexico/Spain yet? I'll gladly chip in a few bucks for a repurchase.
Why anyone would desire eternal life is beyond me. There's no fun in forever.

If you sell us, give us to Spain please. That way I can get a EU citizenship.

They can do that in America?

Let them succeed, as they keep threatening.  We'll still build the wall; it will just be between Texas and Oklahoma instead of between Texas and Mexico.

Every time I see one of those stupid Texas Tourism board advertisements, "Texas, it's like a whole other country!" I ask myself, "Why don't we make it one?"

Seriously, why don't the fuckers just secede and name their new country "Jesusland?"

Shir, Spain and the EU wouldn't take Texas if we gave it to them.

Perhaps they should also pass a law that says they must remove life support from Texas lawmakers.
