TERRI'S BROTHER HOPEFUL ABOUT NEW LEGISLATION AIMED AT SAVING SCHIAVO

http://www.ewtn.com/vnews/getstory.asp?number=54528

(EXCERPTS)

Lori Kehoe, Congressional liaison for the National Right to Life told CNA that she is encouraged by yesterday's introduction of the bill.

Basically, she said, "[representatives] fell into one of two categories: those who were extremely supportive of the bill and those who were very ambivalent and didn't really know all the facts."

Kehoe said that it was very powerful for the representatives to meet Schiavo's parents and "to have to look into their eyes and see that this is a human being, not just another test case."

She noted that one of the few harsh reactions came from Rep. Nancy Johnson (R-CT) who "looked right at [Schiavo's brother] and said 'that's not life...how long has she been in that coma and how much is it costing us?'"

"It was really bad", Kehoe noted.

Rep Nancy Johnson needs to experience a major FREEP action and should have a primary next time around.

Ghouls need not apply!!
