Giggle.  Scene - an intensive care station, 5 November 2006:

"Thank you for coming in, Mrs Hartmann.  We wanted to tell you that
the clinicians had a meeting this morning and we've decided that it would
be for the best if we turned your husband's life support off."

"But I thought you couldn't tell if he was truly brain-dead or not?"

"That was before he voted Republican yesterday."
