The runaway judiciary is the larger issue. The life of Terri is a test case. But letting this one pass unopposed (peaceful demonstration doesn't seem to be making any difference) merely gives more power to the rampaging judges. Since it is the judges that are breaching the limits of their powers, the proper executive response is to overpower them, and the consequences must be faced in turn. The endgame is a do-or-die situation. We could be witnessing the demise of America right here.

I guess my point and my concern is that if at some point the SCOTUS will be the final arbiter of the dispute and their decision will be the last word on the issue we may be forcing a showdown that we cannot win because it will be decided by one of the contestants,the court system.
If someone wants to make the case that despite what they,the court,decides the executive will not abide by it,we need to think what the ramifications of that may be beyond this case.
My overall question is how do we put a stop to a runaway judiciary without giving that very system the ability to defeat the action and be made stronger in the end for the effort?
I don`t see where the logical progression of thought concerning Terri is that frustration and anger over what the court system has done,which anyone can check my postings on the issue to see how wrong I think it is,should be to call Gov. or Pres.Bush cowards,Nazis and other invective that is more befitting DU than here.
It would be nice if raiding the hospice and removing Terri would mean all would go on happily ever after,but I`m afraid it will not.
