I disagree, This is after all a State issue, President Bush made it clear where he stood on this matter and if he did anything more than making sure he was there to sign the Bill Congress sent to him in the middle of the night, he would have been out of line.

We are a Republic that respects the right for each State to have their own Constitution and enact their own laws, and have that States Executive to deal with matters of the State. As much as I think it's a travesty that Terri Schiavo is being put to death by an over reaching State Court, the fact remains the same that this was and still is a State matter.

I appreciate your passion on this issue, but I think we have to accept the fact that Terri Schiavo is being executed by the State of Florida and there isn't much Jeb or George can do for her now, My hope is that we enact legislation to make sure this will never happen again.

God Bless You my friend

I would think you may be the one in the minority, at least here on FR.

Some of us happen to see this as a watershed event, one which changes our view of this country, perhaps forever.

Just because you don't see it that way, doesn't mean you have the best vision.

Terri's loss of a basic right is also a loss for the rest of us. It's not going to get any better here for a long time, because the culture of death has been at work for the last 25 years while we slept.

You may be one who would not want to live like Terri did for her last 15 years. However you need to seriously think about whether or not you want to die as she is dying.
If you are not concerned by a media and medical establishment saying that death from forced dessication is peaceful and painless, then carry on and good luck.

There were plenty of those in Germany who also missed what was coming.
