<snip> "What this issue has done is it has galvanized people the way nothing could have done in an off-election year," said Rev. Lou Sheldon, the founder of the group, acknowledging that the case of Ms. Schiavo, a severely brain-damaged Florida woman, had moved many to open up their checkbooks. "That is what I see as the blessing that dear Terri's life is offering to the conservative Christian movement in America."

Mr. Sheldon, whose organization is based in Anaheim, Calif., said his group had sent e-mail messages and direct mailings telling supporters to call elected officials about the Schiavo case and usually asking for donations as well.

Voice for Terri, a coalition of anti-abortion and Christian conservative groups, is one of several organizations that has sent e-mail messages and set up Web sites pointedly criticizing Ms. Schiavo's husband, Michael, who has fought for years to have his wife's feeding tube removed over the objections of her parents. Troy Newman, the president of the anti-abortion group Operation Rescue and a spokesman for Voice for Terri, said the coalition was spending the money it raised to cover the costs of rallies, of hotel rooms and of rental cars for organizers of protests in Florida, and of e-mail and letter-writing campaigns.

"This is not something you make money off of," Mr. Newman said. "It is a tragedy."<snip> It's not a tragedy but a miracle for these snakes, making money of a family's grief.

1. And you can probably bet dollars to doughnuts

those "organizers" aren't staying at Motel 6, eating at the Waffle House, and renting a Dodge Neon from Budget if someone chose to do a bit of following them when they leave the protest site.

2. As I said in my post yesterday....

Retropublicans don't do ANYTHING or say ANYTHING unless a money angle is involved. Peel off enough wrappers off any issue that the Retros are involved in and you'll find a money angle, get rich, corporate, pro-business what's in for me scheme.
