O'REILLY: "Unresolved problem" segment tonight, dying with dignity. That's what the Terri Schiavo case was supposed to be all about, but I didn't see much dignity in starvation. Did you?

Abstract

In Oregon, doctors are allowed to kill patients who are terminal and want to die. In Vermont, they're debating whether to do that. And in Holland, they not only allow euthanasia, but also at least two doctors there are killing babies born with catastrophic illness.
