The foundation wants to raise $18,000 by May 7 to create, with matching grant money, a paid position to establish networks of care and support in opposition euthanasia -- a controversial practice also called assisted suicide or mercy killing -- and educate the public about alternatives to the practice.
Terri Schiavo's parents, the Schindlers, fought to keep their daughter alive despite severe neurological injury due to still-unexplained cardiac arrest, and in opposition to the wishes of her husband, Michael Schiavo. The case became a court fight that riveted the nation and ended March 31, 2005 when Terri Schiavo died of dehydration after her feeding tube was removed by court order.
Several of the Franciscan Brothers of Peace, a brotherhood of monks from St. Paul, Minn., have been working closely with the Schindler family since Terri Schiavo's story made news and to continue to oppose euthanasia even after her death in 2005.....................................................................................

If being on the right side of Terri's Legacy is seen as a plus for conservative candidates, it is the opposite for the libs and dems, especially the Obama Nation. How warped the far left must be to see attempts to show sympathy for an innocent being killed is a big negative...
Clinton listed her biggest mistake as her failed health care plan during her husbands presidency. Obama said he wished hed better handled the Terri Schiavo issue, in which Congress voted to allow a judge to order reinsertion of a feeding tube into a brain-damaged woman.

"Controversial"? Could there possibly be anything wrong with knocking off weaker members of the species? Saves money, y'know. Too bad if you are one of the ones to get snuffed.
This is a wonderful idea. Too bad we can’t all go to the Franciscan Brothers of Peace when society decides we’ve consumed our fair share of air. But money is what it takes for most of us, and the Schindlers are doing all they can to help. God bless them.
The tide is turning. Media go cover kooky Rosie O'Donnell instead of lying about Terri any longe.
Who needs you mainstream media?
