[...] allowing Governor Jeb Bush to ask doctors to reinsert the feeding tube

What's this "ask" euphemism? Bush was empowered to order that it be reinserted, presumably with the guns of the county sheriff (normally assigned for government orders, usually from courts) to back it up.

It's pale, naked government force that is keeping this woman in limbo. Let's not forget that.

And its pale naked MONEY, and FOUL PLAY, that put this woman in this situation. Let's not forget that, either.

From FoxNews Channel Oct 14,2003 Hannity and Colmes program:

Sean Hannity: Is this about money?

Bob Schindler: It was I believe, a combination of two things, MONEY and FOUL PLAY. Because Terri collapsed, and to this day we still do not know why... Her medical records were sealed by her husband for over ten years. But we did discover that she had a neck injury... She did not have a heart attack, a doctor testified.

Sean: Do you think he harmed your daughter?

Schindler: Quite likely, Yes... And I think by not allowing her therapy, she had never had an opportunity to recover, and consequently she could not speak... And there are therapists on record saying that if Terri were given this therapy, she could not only speak, she could eat.

It was an Executive Order. Felos threatened the doctors at Morton Plant Hospital before the IV was started. His law partner, Debra Bushnell sent out a letter to the medical community that if they did anything to help Terri, they were facing malpractice and battery lawsuits.

We are up against some real sinister forces. One doctor stepped forward to re-insert the feeding tube while a handful of weenie doctors in Pinellas County wouldn't.

DOES FELOS AND JUDGE GREER OWN PINELLAS COUNTY? I haven't gotten an definitive answer yet but it sure appears that way.
