23-15... that isn't bad, actually. Not really all that close.
At first I was really upset that they made amendments that'll delay it, until I read what it was.
From what I read in another thread about the changes, what the amendment is is that the moment Bush executes the stay, Terri gets a guardian ad litem! That is -excellent- news, and may very well make the difference between whether this saves Terri just temporarily, or permanently.
Unfortunately, yes, I know, whether she gets the care today or tomorrow could make the same difference. I'm worried too. But at least the delay is for a significantly substantial, good reason and not just some lame bureaucratic reason.

Exactly.

I believe the amendment also removes the expiration of the law 15 days after it is enacted. That could be trouble. Wasn't that put in to help it pass the House?
