Senate President Tom Lee's office is LYING if they are now saying this is a federal matter. Since when? THEY ARE TRYING TO GET RID OF CALLERS. WELL, I'LL HAVE TO CALL THEM AGAIN. If they are saying it is federal, we need to find out WHICH FEDERAL AGENCY HAS TERRI'S CASE AT THIS TIME? Same with U.S. Senator Martinez.

When the Supreme Court turned down Terri's Law, IT IS BACK TO THE STATE, TO JUDGE GREER, THE 2ND DCA AND THE FLA SUPREMES. They consistently rule in favor of MONSTER MICHAEL.

They are not likely to reverse course and by the way, there's a post here that THE FLORIDA HOUSE CAN IMPEACH JUDGES. We need to more research on that.

CAN YOU IMAGINE A U.S. SENATOR AND THE PRESIDENT OF THE FLORIDA SENATE are LYING TO CALLERS who are mostly republicans?
