Living Will . . .

[imcarthur]

I_____________(fill in the blank), being of sound mind and body,
do not wish to be kept alive indefinitely by artificial means.

Under no circumstances should my fate be put in the hands of
peckerwood politicians who couldn't pass ninth-grade biology if
their lives depended on it. If a reasonable amount of time passes
and I fail to sit up and ask for a cold beer, it should be
presumed that I won't do so ever again. When such a determination
is reached, I hereby instruct my spouse, children and attending
physicians to pull the plug, reel in the tubes and call it a day.

Under no circumstances shall the members of the Legislature enact
a special law to keep me on any kind of life-support. It is my
wish that these boneheads mind their own d*mn business, and pay
attention instead to the health, education and future of the
millions of Americans who aren't in a permanent coma and who
nonetheless may be in need of nourishment.

Under no circumstances shall any politicians butt into this case.
I don't care how many fundamentalist votes they're trying to
scrounge for their run for the presidency in 2008, it is my wish
that they play politics with someone else's life and leave me
alone to die in peace. I couldn't care less if a hundred religious
zealots send e-mails to legislators in which they pretend to care
about me. I don't know these people, and certainly haven't
authorized them to preach and/or crusade on my behalf. They should
mind their own d*mn business, too.

If any of my family goes against my wishes and turns my case into a
political cause, I hereby promise to come back from the grave and
make his or her existence a living hell.
