Who's Funding Michael Schiavo?

Here, courtesy of FindLaw, is Michael Schiavo's filing before the U.S. Supreme Court, which succeeded in moving his wife one step closer to being killed by the state. (You can find a wealth of background on the case here, courtesy of Fox News and FindLaw.)

The 54-page brief lists 11 lawyers and three law firms, the American Civil Liberties Union, Felos & Felos, and Jenner & Block (at a pricey DC address). Such a legal team would bill at a cumulative rate approaching $5,000 an hour, and this 54-page hour-eater is just one of hundreds of filings that have been made to further Schiavo's will to kill.

Michael Schiavo obviously isn't paying for this. Who is? The law firms may be able to hide behind their "pro bono" proclamations, but I'm certain the arbortion industry, euthanasia advocates and perhaps some of the Left Eight radical foundations are behind it.

You'll scratch your head over these items from George Felos' bio: In his spare time, he is a guest minister at "several" churches. I suppose in all the world there might be three to five churches that would have him address the congregation. He also has chaired the board of The Hospice of the Florida Suncoast, "the largest non-profit Hospice in the world." I know hospices are for dying at, but I still wouldn't want a radical death advocate running the one I choose to send a loved one to.
