Prime Minister Ariel Sharon fought for his life Thursday following seven hours of emergency surgery to stop widespread bleeding in his brain.

Bullshit. I hate how they phrase these things. If you got down the article farther they give the comment from the doctor that he is under "deep sedation" meaning he's out cold, possibly in a drug induced coma to give his body time to maybe heal itself some. Yep Terri Schiavo was "fighting for life" too.

You want to use that phrase, talk about Iraq, either our guys or the ones they're trying to blow up. They're fighting for their lives.
