What about Jesse Jackson?
He is a real 'news hound"!
I don't think they realize that Terri's Law is a SHAM even though they voted for it. Terri has no Guardian Ad Litem, she's had no tests that the GAL who was dismissed recommended and her teeth are being extracted at a fast pace.
JUDGE DAVID DEMERS dismissed GAL Wolfson before he got the swallowing tests he recommended. EVEN HEAD JUDGE DEMERS will have blood on his hands.
Re: Jesse Jackson - I don't know if he'd help but I'm not sure anyone has asked him. He could come down here and give a speech and get on the tube for Terri.
He is on FNC right now talking about Pat Tillman.....I want to contact him to ask for his help for Terri.
What Terri Has Taught Us About Our Culture
If JON KYL meant it when he authored that bill for victim's rights, WE HAVE AMERICA'S NUMBER ONE VICTIM RIGHT HERE.
Here's another article re: Terri. Just placing it here to expedite posting.
Florida Baptist Witness special report on Terri Schiavo:
http://www.floridabaptistwitness.com/schiavo.fbw. Mark Kelly is the author of Proof Beyond Reasonable Doubt: The end of Christian apologetics. (A good summary of what's been done to Terri)
Another Story about the Starvation of Terri (or are they morphing her out now which made it quite easy for them to yank her teeth out?
So, for this reason Terri's pro bono Round Table should refrain from filing motions before the court each and every time MS and or his legal team violates prior judicial findings regarding guardian administration, Florida statutes/regulations and the federal Americans with Disabilities Act????
Tell that to Terri and her family.
As for me, Terri's Round Table has been in first gear from the get-go.
~~~~~~~ Starke / Bradford County Rally for Terri Schiavo ~~~~~~~ The rally was a labor of love and concern for Terri and her family. It really did last from 8 am until 5 pm. 6 people, including the organizer, were there that entire time and have the sunburn and sore arms and sore voice to prove it. There were a maximum of maybe 21 there for several hours around midday. One family left for a softball game (the news came back later that their player hit a triple and stole a base).
We stood along 301 in front of the Bradford County Courthouse which is just north of where 16 comes in. Its a major truck route and today it was also a major motorcycle route as well, with a few to up to a dozen or so at a time riding by with thumbs up and horns honking. Most of the truckers were positive. In one outstanding series of maybe 20 cars or so, only 3 did not honk for Terri.
As always at such an event, I met some wonderful people who care about Terri and the Schindlers. They had a petition to sign -- the person in charge of it even got one of the workers there to sign it. I passed out some color copies of FL engineers Terri photo series w/conversation, one of the most powerful things bits of evidence we have.
They plan another rally sometime in the next few weeks in Macclenny (Baker County).

I'll be back after I visit sptimes.com Sunday Edition. KING'S REMARKS AT YESTERDAY'S SESSION are outrageous and IMO, are a result of pressures on King from Felos, et al and conversely from people who know right from wrong. King is flipping his lid and I don't want him as Senate President a moment longer.
Senate bill would make animal cruelty a felony By Times Staff Writer Published April 25, 2004
TALLAHASSEE - Senate President Jim King has a special affinity for animals.
"The more I'm around people, the more I realize how important dogs are," King said Saturday after the Senate approved a bill enhancing the penalties for animal cruelty.
King has two black Labrador retrievers, Jimini and Melinda.
"They are God's beings and don't need to be mistreated," he said. "I have no problem with rodeos, I'm talking about people who cow tip, light fire to cats and put bunnies in microwaves."
Take a look at the inmates on death row, King suggested, and you'll find almost all of them have animal cruelty in their backgrounds.
The bill, sponsored by Sen. Jim Sebesta, R-St. Petersburg, would make animal cruelty a felony instead of a misdemeanor.
Instead of facing a maximum one year prison sentence and a $5,000 fine, those convicted of animal cruelty in the future could face a maximum five-year sentence and fines of up to $10,000. An intentional act that causes the death of an animal would subject the perpetrator to a second-degree felony and require a minimum mandatory six months in jail and a $2,500 fine.
A similar bill is pending in the House.
FV SAYS: JIM KING SHOULD STEP DOWN AS SENATE PRESIDENT. His remarks are outrageous and if he feels that dogs are more important than people, he should RUN FOR PRESIDENT OF PETA and stop killing Florida's humans. I know tons of people have been calling and emailing Jim King and not to compliment him on his great legacy as Senate President. GOOD JOB.
Please call Senator Byrd whose number doesn't work today and Governor Bush whose voicemail is kinda long.
Why wait until November? JIM KING SHOULD RESIGN NOW. He's offensive, outta control, he's pals with the death lobby and with our kooky Pinellas County Judges.
BIAS, BIAS, BIAS.
What is Terri if Jim King's labs are God's beings? IS NOT TERRI GOD'S BEING AS WELL????? Apparently not. King wouldn't allow SB 692 to protect disabled Floridians to the floor but THEY HELD A SATURDAY SESSION to prevent cruelty to animals.
Anyone outraged yet? This is getting more ridiculous with each day that passes... before the session started JIM KING asked Sen. Miller from Tampa to SING THE LORD'S PRAYER. They were sobbing like babies... no tears for Terri though.
The Senate passed the House version (HB 221) that would make it a third-degree felony to promote such an event. Violators found guilty could face five years in prison and a $5,000 fine.<<
This bill passed unanimously. Imagine if Senate President, Jim King, would have allowed Senate Bill 692 to be heard. You'll recall that SB 692 would have required a written, advanced directive before assisted nutrition and hydration could be removed from a patient.
This bill was withdrawn on April 16: http://www.flsenate.gov/session/index.cfm?BI_Mode=ViewBillInfo&Mode=Bills&SubMenu=1&Year=2004&billnum=692
Senator King is the reason it was never heard: http://news.tbo.com/news/MGAN946WQND.html ``As soon as you put something on the floor, as well-intended as it may be, anybody can amend it. Then all of a sudden I'm sitting there facing a bill or bills that can dismantle what I consider to be my legacy.''
AND, CHECK OUT THE BILL PASSED SATURDAY in a special session to stop CRUELTY TO ANIMALS. Jim King prefers animals to people.
