TALLAHASSEE, FL -- According to a news release sent by the Terry Schindler-Schiavo Foundation, Florida Speaker Johnnie Byrd will introduce "Terri's Bill" during the special session Monday.

The bill would put an immediate moratorium on all dehydration and starvation deaths in Florida. Meanwhile, supporters of Terri Schiavo showed up Sunday outside a Pinellas Park hospice.

Doctors say Schiavo has been in a vegetative state since complications from a heart attack in 1990. Her husband was granted a court order that her feeding tube be removed, saying his wife wouldn't have wanted to be kept alive.

Geller says the courts have heard all the evidence, whereas the legislature has not. The courts have all the facts, whereas the legislature does not. He's talking about the overwhelming emails they've all received, and how the majority of them are from out of state.

The Gellar guy said almost all his emails that he got were from out of state and not his district. Apparently, that's why he thinks it won't hurt him politically to go against it.

I'm probably the only one here still with the ancient 28K modem, as fast as a glacier!

I have a choice here.
Either I watch the video only, or I post only.

If I try to do both, takes forever!

Get them to a notary before they lose their minds, if you are so interested in their right to starve to death, lady.
