Hello FR,
Yes, there has been GREAT NEWS TODAY ABOUT TERRI! Surely goodness and mercy WILL follow her all the days of her life...
I hope the Lead Moderator allows this Very Special "THANK YOU" thread (that I intend to email to Gov Bush) to stay in the sidebar, so all of you will see it and post on it.
But first, following all the recent (and totally unwarranted) Jeb-bashing on this forum, some people (especially new people) may desperately need this review and mini-lesson about Gov Bush:
(1) For those of you who doubted Gov Bush's DESIRE to HELP in this matter, SHAME ON YOU! Here is the full text of the letter Gov Bush wrote early on to Judge Greer, for those of you who missed it:
From JEB to FR: Full text of Gov Bush's letter to Judge Greer re: Terri Schiavo
(2) For those of you who did not know that Gov Bush has been, and continues to be, "FL's Favorite Governor", for MANY GOOD REASONS, check out these two articles about the guy FL is proud to call its Favorite Gov:
Jeb quietly goes to the rescue of a 2-year-old
Golf Links Bush, Boy [Jeb shares his views, and golf, with autistic teen]
(3) For those of you who are new, and shocked that the governor of the 4th largest state is ALWAYS interested in listening to the people he serves, check out these two articles:
Governor hears Polk County citizens' woes, both strange and sad [Jeb listens..whoa! What an earful!]
World Wide Jeb
(4) Finally, for those handful of posters who actually DOUBTED the JEB-emails I posted on two threads were NOT from him - well, you have missed half a dozen such threads over the years, and believe me, ALL those emails are from him.
And, I am not the only person he has written to over the years. In fact, as I recall, a number of those other people who've heard from him over the years posted here, on this thread I started less than 1 day after Election Day 2002, when Gov Bush was re-elected in a landslide (and made history as FL's first GOP gov to win a 2nd term):
HEY! Q: Guess who took the time to write a special thank-you note to FR posters? A: JEB BUSH!
OK, mini-lesson over!
Now -- if you have something NICE and POSITIVE to say to FL's Favorite Governor (such as: "THANK YOU"), then please do reply on this thread. My own thank you to Gov Bush is posted in my reply #1 below.
Have a BEAUTIFUL DAY!

How about a mega ping here so we can all unburden ourselves from our weighty gratitude to Jeb?

Thank you Governor Bush, you are as outstanding as our President (must run in the genes)! This was the right thing to do. I have been praying for you, and all of the elected Florida officials involved. God bless you!
Sincerely,

Dear Governor Bush,
I want to extend my appreciation to you and the state legislature for having the courage to take a stand for Terri and her family.
She deserves a chance to live and heal.
God Bless You.

Summer, will pics print out when you send this?
If not, here is a box of very good champagne and many glasses, one for each Senate and House member who voted for life in fact!
Please tell those House representatives who spoke that first evening that we were riveted and in tears as we listened to them.
Maybe we can make this day an annual FR celebration day, the FR Day of Life or something, in honor of the wonderful prolife victories we saw in one day here.

Governor Bush,
You are truly a man of great courage and compassion. A real leader. I knew in my heart that you would make the right decisions.
Please ignore any Emails I sent that may have implied anything to the contrary!

To the Honorable Jeb Bush,
Many thanks to you for your heart of compassion towards Theresa Maria Schindler Schiavo.
Your calling the Special Session was in God's Plan to help her to survive the atrocity being forced upon her by an unscrupulous panel of three.
I do hope you accept the love and thanks I and many others have for you and your decision.
I know you will be honored for your help in the saving this young woman.
You will be written down in history as one the 'greats' of Florida's Governors. You asked the Legislators to do exactly the right thing!
That IS the 'separation of powers', in Florida's Constitution.
May you and your family be blessed.
May the entire Bush family be blessed!
Thank-you again for taking a stand FOR life!

Please thank Governor Bush for this precious victory.
To: EternalVigilance
Condi Rice may be doing a fine job as national security advisor, but she is not qualified to be on the GOP ticket because of her proabortion stance
I didn't know she was for abortion... geez, all the libs hate her, so I thought otherwise.
