Jesse Jackson lobbies for Schiavo's parents

''Without food or water for 12 days, there are vital signs she is being starved to death,'' Jackson said. ``She is being dehydrated to death and that is inhumane. It is immoral and unnecessary. There is no rational reason for this to happen.''

Jackson said he has been on the phone to members of the Florida Senate, asking them ``to be creative and craft some emergency legislation . . . to stop the starving, stop the dehydration.''

He said he also has called the office of Gov. Jeb Bush. ''He needs to get back to us,'' Jackson said.
