Today is the first day that Terri Schiavo has not had anything to eat because has been denied her feeding tube. I am urging all Republicans and pro-lifers out there (if you are TRULY what you say) to contact your Congressmen and let them know that you want them to save Terri Schiavo.
Please check out HelpTerri.com, for more information, and how to contact your Congressmen.
This website is very easy to navigate, and correct letterhead and format of the letter are PROVIDED FOR YOU, FREE OF CHARGE, and TAKES JUST A FEW MINUTES. I already sent a message to Rep. Murphy. Please help save this woman. It is our duty to stand up for our fellow Americans.
I wish to remind all Republicans of our 2004 Republican party platform (under the section "Promoting a Culture of Life"), which states (verbatim):
"We affirm the inherent dignity and worth of all people. We oppose the non-consensual withholding of care or treatment because of disability, age, or infirmity just as WE OPPOSE EUTHANASIA and assisted suicide, which especially endanger the poor and those on the margins of society" (emphasis mine).
