This video does not work right but is worth listening to.  It is apparently (I'm not sure) from around 2005]:

[ "Lets Harvest the Organs of Death Row Inmates"; as submitted to You Tube by sff;  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONsEpfeZ3nI ]

Personal Commentary:

1.  Should repeat felons, violent felons and/or death row inmates qualify for organ transplants?

2.  Why not let death row inmates donate their organs? 

3.  Might the latter be mandated for the common good?

4.  In this game of Limbo we appear to be playing...

"How low do we go?"

5.  What is "logical"? 

6.  What is "sensible"? 

7.  What is cost efficient? 

8.  What is HUMANE?

"Freethought of the Day":

"I was reading the Bible--some of us still do that, you know--and I saw the tale of Jacob and his wives and handmaids, a kind of early Baby M. This is not an attack on Christianity, but the fact is Christians have long persecuted other sects and each other, as they are in Northern Ireland today. People were saying things like, 'A woman's place is in the home.' And I got to thinking, well, how would someone enforce thoughts like that?”

— Margaret Atwood on writing "The Handmaid's Tale", Interview; "New York Times"; 4/14/1990

"Filibuster Kills Fair Pay... For Now"

"Yesterday, fair pay fell victim to the filibuster, as a minority of Senators blocked the Paycheck Fairness Act and denied the nation badly needed remedies for the discriminatory pay practices that plague our workplaces. The vote was a deep and painful disappointment. Afterward, President Obama met with fair pay advocates, including the National Partnership’s Portia Wu. And his sentiment was shared by all: This isn’t the end of the battle — and we’re more determined than ever to achieve fair pay for women..."

Human Ethics and Dignity... Lets Build THAT... Petition Link Regarding Discovery Communications and Sarah Palin

"Drill, Baby, Drill comes to Discovery.."  [And they are apparently intending (?) to hire Sarah Palin to host the show!"]

My Response:

"Please do NOT [in regard to hiring Sarah Palin] do this! If you want to do a show in Alaska, why not employ some impovershed aboriginals? "That" would be a story! "That" would be ethical! "That" would make you "less" resemble a monster and "MORE" resemble a human heart beating within this vast [Poor to middle class folks need jobs; Palin is, amongst other things, already quite wealthy!] machine...

Dignity. Where does it start? Why not be a part of it?"

Join me in signing a petition against hiring Sarah Palin?  Add your own input? 

Quotes from source below: 

1.  "The media conglomerate Discovery Communications used to be known for their earth-friendly offerings. But they’ve just paid millions to Sarah Palin to host a “nature” show, despite her decidedly anti-environmental stance: She vocally advocates for habitat-destroying oil drilling, she denies global warming is a human-caused threat, and she spearheaded a brutal wolf-slaughter program as governor of Alaska..."


2.  "The former partial-term Alaska governor is reportedly getting paid $1.2 million per episode to host a television series called "Sarah Palin's Alaska," to be broadcast on TLC, one of Discovery Communications' channels. And if Palin runs for president in 2012, a show that provides her the opportunity to greenwash her environmental record on a mainstream, eco-friendly channel is downright dangerous."
