By Tamara Lytle,

WASHINGTON — Michael Schiavo, who fought for years to remove his wife, Terri, from a feeding tube that kept her alive, has turned his anger over Congress' intervention into political action.Schiavo announced Wednesday that he had opened TerriPAC to strike back at politicians who tried to keep his brain-damaged wife alive through legislation that he termed a "sickening exercise in raw political power."

Throughout the years, Schiavo maintained that his wife would not have wanted to be kept alive artificially after being robbed of her brain function. Her parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, had sought to keep the feeding tube in and had rallied antiabortion forces to their side.
