IMPORTANT:
While mailing all of the reps is great (and I have myself, that's some awesome work done to make that so easy, thanks!), there is clearly one senator who deserves special, hand-written "love" from all of us.
From Worldnetdaily:
http://worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=35161 "Volunteers with the Terri Schindler-Schiavo Foundation have learned that Senate President Jim King is opposed to the bill and has said he would not present it to the upper house for a vote.
"According to his website, King is a member of the Florida Hospice Board of Directors and the Florida Task Force on Government-Financed Health Care, and is a recipient of the Hospice Hall of Fame Award.
"Last year he wrote an amendment to the Advanced Directives Law expanding the definition of "proxy."
"The way it reads now, a total and complete stranger that doesn't even know the patient, can come into the institution and say it's in the patient's best interest to die – that was his contribution to the law," said Pat Anderson, attorney for Terri's parents, Robert and Mary Schindler."
Many of you may have heard me defend Jeb Bush. I still stand by that. He can't do anything legally. THIS guy CAN, and I'm not sure but with his position as Senate Leader he could possibly prevent the bill from even being heard (the article makes it sound that way, anyway).
You will not hear me complain -one- whit if this RINO gets more hate mail than Jeb has over the last few days. In fact, I'd think it was a sin if he didn't. Sick 'im, lads! (and ladies as well ;)
In the worldnetdaily article, there's a link to his website.
I think he needs more than a form-letter, don't you?

hey, mighty qwinn. I agree with you. I guess everyone in politics has a side job at the hospice board?

Oh, sorry for my duplication.
You're right we need to single this guy out. If he succeeds in blocking the bill, we need to find out when he is up for reelection and see if we can't take up a Freeper collection to run an ad with Terri's story in it opposing his re-election.
