The Florida House scheduled a Monday night session to take up the issue. In the Senate, President Jim King said he will propose legislation that would give Gov. Jeb Bush the authority to order the feeding tube be reinserted to keep Terri Schiavo alive.

The tube was removed Wednesday following a decade-long court battle between Schiavo's parents and their son-in-law, who contends that he is carrying out her wishes not to be kept alive artificially.

"If we are to err - because time is of the essence - for goodness sake let us err on the side of caution," said King, a Republican.

This the Senate President that doesn't want a special session to prevent her from starving.

This was on another thread! Let's give him credit.!!

Rather than credit, maybe King knows that a lot of FReeper research made its way to Florida today ~ maybe something to do with James King being a member of the Florida Hospice Board of Directors ~ and George Felos, esteemed attorney for Michael Schiavo, and ex-member of the Florida Hospice Board of Directors. One Director man works to have the woman die; the second Director man presents a Bill that would have the woman live ~ his status as a Hospice Board Member might look like a conflict of something ..

Hallelujah!
