Having to follow the law, as written, as per his oath of office, must be heartbreaking for this good man.

Remember when George Wallace stood in front of that school doorway some 40 years ago? He dared the federal government to do something about it, based on wrong reasoning. I would expect Jeb Bush to dare the Federal Government to do the something, based on right reasoning.

I hear you, heck, I want him to take custody of Terri as of YEARS AGO.

But, he HAS to follow the LAW as WRITTEN because we all depend upon our legislators to do this..for good reason.

This case is SO OUTRAGEOUS...it defies common sense and worse, a person's LIFE hangs upon the outcome.

The legislature, by changing the LAW, can save not only Terri's life, but EVERYONE's life who, not having a written directions regarding artificial means of existence, is at the mercy of a hateful spouse or family member.

Sure do. Maybe that's what's holding Jeb up. Maybe he's afraid the federal govt might respond forcefully, and the President send troops to...uh...wait a minute...
Never mind! :)
