FREE REPUBLIC'S PATRIOTIC TABLE AT TERRI SCHINDLER-SCHIAVO'S 40th BIRTHDAY FREE REPUBLIC'S TABLE
Conservative-Spirit.Org | December 5, 2003 | floriduh voter

Posted on 12/05/2003 10:50:39 AM PST by floriduh voter

I arrived at Hospice Woodside Wednesday afternoon at about 4:15 p.m. I waited for a deluxe table to accommodate the lovely floral arrangement for the Schindler Family from freeper gwb and gop man, also on behalf of talk radio in Savannah, Ga and floriduh voter.

The flowers arrived before gwb and gop man and I drove them to Hospice Woodside with other decorations for Free Republic's table #8.

Freepers, the theme for our table went back to the founding fathers. Printed artwork from Dover Publications was of lady liberty standing side by side with an eagle, a town crier crying "Hear Ye, Hear Ye, Terri's forty!", and another eagle with a banner with "Protection" on it.

In addition, the donation cup on Free Republic's table consisted of a flag, a small gavel taped onto it and hanging on by a twist tie, my Daniel Webster beanie baby. Daniel just happened to be carrying a cloth book entited "LAW". Daniel Webster made some cash for the Foundation.

I brought a large crystal drum of the fife and drum variety filled with peppermints and butter rum candies.

I brought my Photo Album that documented October 13th. In addition, thanks to another freeper, I printed out a 17 page list of all the threads that were posted for Terri at Free Republic through November 18, 2003. I put Free Republic's Logo in a stand up picture frame and also wore my name tag from the Friva Conference held in Las Vegas in August of 2001.

There were also pewter battery-type candles on our table by the floral arrangement of white roses, iris's, stattis, baby's breath, day lilies, etc. All of the above came together on a long table that I held out for.

Please bookmark this thread and hopefully, when other freepers in attendance and myself get our film developed, we could put our jpegs in one location. Please excuse all the "I"s but this is my account from a freeper's perspective. Unfortunately, Buffy the chicken was not in attendance. If you'd like to see her picture again, let me know.

Nancy aka floriduh voter

Everybody needs to be aware of what we are dealing with here, and how Terri ended up in this position.

Gracing the cover of the notebook containing 17 pages of all Terri threads at FR through November 18, 2003. 67,525 posts on 574 threads. (I whited out 1776 & printed Friends of Terri at Freerepublic.com). She pointed the way to entice folks to open the notebook. I flipped through this notebook for A & E. Compiled by The Pro Options Advocate and artwork by Doverpublications.com. Check both companies out.

The list is available on one of the recent Terri action threads at the top. Someone else may know which one.

well said. Not that Whee is new here and likely only a DU troll. But, s/he succeeded .. instead of discussing Terri and the beautiful, thoughtful presentation of Floriduh everyone is responding to the troll. Everyone should just put him/her on mental ignore and get back to the topic at hand.

Thanks, to Floriduh and the FReepers who made the beautiful birthday for Terri, and Happy Birthday, Terri.

Hey, that's me on the bottom right, with my big fuzzy black "Natasha" hat! That was planned on such short notice, I wasn't sure if it even got done in time. I'm thrilled to know she had it in time for her birthday.

Yeah, I'm glad it made it too. I am about halfway between you and the center, diagonally.. in what looks like light blue (it isn't actually) with the long hair.

That whole interview bothered me, but the part that bothered me the most was when he gleefully stated that he had to do the same thing with his own parents (euthanize them), then he giggled. It still gives me the creeps.

Contact Gov Bush and ask him to contact the Republican caucus, and vote to remove Jim King from his leadership positions. He is majority leader. Statute is below, courtesy of doc Knox, out of JAX

Dear Governor Bush:
I have enclosed a petition for your consideration. We are urgently requesting that the Republican Caucus in the Florida Senate vote to remove State Senator Jim King from his leadership positions. We are also urgently requesting you to consider the suspension of Senator King as per Article 4, Section 7 of the Florida Constitution. The reasons for suspension are malfeasance, misfeasance, incompetence and neglect of duty. Finally, we are asking you to consider introducing legislation to provide for the recall of state senators and representatives to avoid situations like this in the future.
Senator King has endangered the health and well-being of all Floridians by his failure to act in reasonable good faith to resolve the medical liability crisis. He has thus been instrumental in creating a public health crisis in the state. I respectfully ask that you consider these measures. I fully understand the gravity and the extraordinary nature of this situation. Thus I have presented a petition with as many signatures from Senator King?s district as possible.

Sincerely,

Glenn W. Knox MD





Memo to: Florida Physicians and Patients

Cc: Duval County Medical Society

Re: Petition to suspend Senator Jim King

I have enclosed a petition for your consideration. If you and/or others wish to sign it, please either mail it to my office or drop it off. I am sorry that I cannot accept faxes or electronic submissions; original signatures are necessary. If the July 9th special session does not yield meaningful tort reform, the petition and signatures will be delivered to Governor Bush?s office. Please have each person who signs the petition provide their home address and indicate if they live in Senator King?s district or work there. They must be registered to vote in the State of Florida. Thank you for your time and consideration.

The envelopes say they must have postage. If you put no postage on the envelope, it will be returned to you.
However if you put $.01, it will go forward and the receiver will pay the other $.36.
This hospice is asking for donations and probably have a postage due account already set up.
Trust me on this one, I work for the USPS

"Trust me on this one, I work for the USPS"

Thanks for the information. It's good to clarify it. It would be a shame to have the letters returned to sender and defeat the sender's intent.
