About damn time, Jeb!

I was wondering when/if he was going to take the gloves off and realize that there is no down side to using every resource he has available.

Gov. Jeb Bush fired a volley of legal shots Wednesday at the husband of a brain damaged woman who is at the center of a right to die case, saying there needs to be a jury trial on whether Terri Schiavo wanted to be kept alive artificially.

Excellent news ping!

He was busy punching holes in walls. Oh wait, he doesn't look manly enough to do that when he's mad.. I bet he just punches pillows.

Thank you, Governor Bush!

"The court seems to have just bought the Felos argument..."

And that has been the problem all along

George Felos, Michael Schiavo's attorney, could not immediately be reached for comment.

Any day that George Felos is forced to keep his lying trap shut is a good day!

Finally, thank G_d, this issue comes to the top. I am reposting below something a wrote a few days ago on this.

The tragic, terrible flaw in this case - and in the laws and procedures that govern how it has proceeded - is that it has allowed the life of Terri Schiavo to be placed in the hands of one flawed, incompetent judge, without provision for review or appeal of his sole evaluation of the facts.

As I understand recent appellate decisions regarding the death penalty, it can be imposed only by a jury. No judge, no single individual, from the President on down - posesses the legal power to sentence even the worst offender to death. That requires a jury, and an exhaustive review by many others, at many levels of the system. But Judge Greer, even though he is physically incompetent to evaluate the consciousness of Terri Schiavo due to his visual impairment - has seized and held onto this obscene power like the grim death he intends to impose on his victim.

How can a law that allows this terrible situation fail to be unconstitutional on its face? But this was the situation, until the Governor and the legislature acted to correct it, at least in part. Now they must defend their intervention against attempts by the old system to reimpose its will and restore their old power. It MUST NOT HAPPEN.

Michael Schiavo and his lawyer have been 'kicking sand' in the face of Terrie, her family and even in the face of Governor Bush.

I hope Michael's 'team Shiavo' are beginning to get an idea of 'consequences' here. . .

Wow. Bush is really serious. He seems to be personally involved in this.

I would think the biggest thing going against MS is that he waited an awful long time to 'remember' that Terri had said she would not not want to be kept alive.
