Brain-dead mom makes headlines!

The story of the pregnant brain-dead woman who was kept alive by her family (thanks to more than $400,000 in donations, many from "pro-life" sympathizers, who demonstrate again that Jesus cares much more for a well-off white woman's fetus than he does for, say, the millions of starving people in Niger. But I do go off ...) is very sad.

The headlines, however, are kind of funny.

A representative sampling:

Odds good for baby of brain-dead woman [Chicago Sun-Times]
