Florida Senate--BREAKING
The Florida Senate has shown that they don't give a damn what this country feels. I e-mailed every single one of them, and had the same response for every single one of them--Mailbox Full. That, to me, says very clearly that I wasn't the only person begging them to save Terri's life. And with the rejection of this bill, the door is wide open for anyone, anywhere in Florida, to kill whomever they choose, so long as it's in the name of mercy.
ATLANTA Mar 23, 2005 — For the second time in less than a day, a federal appeals court Wednesday rejected a bid by Terri Schiavo's parents to have her feeding tube re-inserted. The Florida Senate also turned back another last-ditch effort to prolong her life.
The Senate bill would have prohibited patients like Schiavo from being denied food and water if they did not express their wishes in writing. The 21-18 vote came five days after her feeding tube was removed under court order. Similar efforts in the Legislature have failed in the past.
