..what he COULD do that people clearly WANT him to do is express extreme outrage even beyond what he already has in the media and call this "murder" and give tacit approval for people to take this into their own hands. That way he can be set up to take the blame when they show up and use weapons to try and save Terri. And then when somebody with a sniper rifle showed up and killed Schiavo and Greer or killed several people in an attempt to save Terri, Jeb could be arrested for agitating for an armed insurgency...

Settle down.

What we're asking for is something more than a Pilate-type defence about what's on the statute books. We want Governor Jeb to go the extra yards to save this woman's life- or at least, to make sure it doesn't end in this way.

Roy Moore would. Ronald Reagan would have. Jeb Bush should.

Gov Bush always goes the extra yards - but, Gov Bush is not God. And, Gov Bush knows that. Another governor might not.

"What we're asking for is something more than a Pilate-type defence about what's on the statute books."

This case has been argued about in court for, what, a decade now? They have reheard it again - and again - and -again-. There has been appeal after appeal after appeal. Now, 10 years later, people hear about it and think this all just started and it's getting rushed along way too quickly.

I think dismissing the efforts that have been taken to save Terri so far as a "Pilate-defense" is way too easy. Michael apparently wanted her dead from the moment he cashed in the award. If there hadn't been a very -strong- defense, she'd have died long ago.

There is a legal limit to how many appeals can be filed, and they have all been filed and heard. The Court has simply refused to hear any and all more appeals. No one, not even Jeb can force them to.

Having the executive branch invalidate the judical branch seems a very dangerous precedent.

For example, what if Clinton had intervened in the case of Bush vs. Florida in the 2000 election, by determining that the USSC was wrong!?
