Well why we are passing time waiting for some news I'll post what i wrote to my elected represnttives via that link that amdgmary posted and I re-posted. I know tht ther are typos but dont' you think it coes across as more grass roots that way? Humor me!
Dear [Appropriate Salutation Will Be Inserted Here]:
Regarding Terri Schiavo This is getting very bad press in France and with good reason. We are being shown as barbaric. The French understand when a husband has moved on and procreated 2 children with a new common law wife that anything out of his mouth is suspect.
Please protect Terri Schiavo and all who reside in the U.S. against being starved to death by court order.
it is different if people have an advance directive, then it IS a privacy matter. However when there is nothing in writing, we must not starve peopel to death in this country. Food and hydration are not "Treament" they are Ordinary Care, evenif delivered via a feeding tube.
I draw the line at starving people to death, Especially since she has been denied an attorney by Judge Greer and he has been upheld by the Appelet Court In Florida. Even Criminals have the right to an attorney, but not the disabled.
States should not be able to superceed our Right to LIFE, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness. This is a direct quotation form Judge George Greer from the Bench, "i don't want anybody trying to feed that girl!
The law of the case is that she is going to die" if this isn't Judicial Homocide I don't know what is?
I ask that you do everything in your power to rescue Terri Schiavo and to pass Federal laws insuring that no human being, without and advance written directive, can be starved to death by the States.
Good letter Ex-pat!!
