Hillary Flirts with Assisted Suicide

Just when you think it couldn’t get much worse between Clinton and Obama, one of them ventures further into the pro-death mentality. This time it is Hillary. Earlier this week, she was in Oregon which owns the infamous reputation of being the only state in the nation to have legalized assisted suicide.

Meeting with an editorial writer and reporter, Clinton was asked point blank what her attitude is toward Oregon’s assisted suicide law. She dodged and weaved, but here are some comments which reveal her “flirt” with this horrible practice:

“I believe it’s within the province of the states to make that decision.”

“…the fact that Oregon is breaking new ground and providing valuable information……when it comes to end-of-life questions, I think, is very beneficial.”

When asked if she would have voted for legalization had she been a resident of Oregon when it was on the ballot, she replied:

“I don’t know the answer to that…..I have a great deal of sympathy for people who are in difficult end-of-life situations.”

“….it’s a terribly difficult decision that should never be forced upon anyone.”

“So with appropriate safeguards and informed decision-making, I think it’s an appropriate right to have.”

Hmmmm. With the last statement, the dodging and weaving solidified into support for a right to assisted suicide. Was she thinking out loud? Sending up a trial balloon? Trying to get votes from Oregon residents? It is sickening to experience how once one slips into the idea that death is a solution to social problems, the list of people who have lives not worth living grows.
