Michael Schiavo called Florida Senate President Tom Lee regarding the new bill that was introduced today (Starvation and Dehydration of People with Disabilities Prevention Act). Michael Schiavo and his attorney George Felos do not want the new Florida bill HB 701 to pass. Felos is extremely fightened about this bill becoming law. Michael and Felos are afraid of the new bills that may help save Terri.
SENATE PRESIDENT TOM LEE SAID:
"I got a phone call today from Mr. Schiavo," Senate President Tom Lee said. "We're going to try to be fair to him and fair to Terri and all the people who have feelings about end-of-life issues."
MY thoughts on this: These people use Double Speak. LQQK at what Tom Lee said at the end of sentence.
*** END-OF-LIFE ISSUES *** Perhaps, I'm a dummy, but IS that not the very same WORDING that the infamous Hemlock Society uses??? I hate to be negative, but I'm sick of the games they play.
How can Tom Lee possibly be * Fair to Terri's Family * when he is USING HEMLOCK speak in the same sentence. Hopefully I'm just a nut and he will in fact, be fair.
"*** END-OF-LIFE ISSUES *** Perhaps, I'm a dummy, but IS that not the very same WORDING that the infamous Hemlock Society uses??? I hate to be negative, but I'm sick of the games they play."
You're right maybe we need to let Senator Lee know this is a "right-to-life" issue, not an "end-of-life" issue.
Also, how can you be fair when one side wants to save a life and the other wants to commit murder? Terri is not property that you divide up to be fair.
