"And where is Jeb Bush? He could have placed Terri into protective custody. So could President Bush."
Good question.
Why would a president who has power to intervene with executive order - not do it when an innocent American citizen is being dehydrated to death?
Think people. We live in a media culture where cameras and audio can make people look any way they want to.
I voted for Bush. I supported his campaign. I've stood behind him.
If he doesn't do something soon to help Terri, I, for one, no longer trust his friendly smile and engaging personality. Afterall, Judge Greer was a Republican and a Christian too.....
What is really going to be sickening after Terri dies is seeing people continue to praise this president. There is NO excuse for his not writing an executive order. None whatsoever.
But why should he? Most Americans are ignorant of the fact that he has this option, first of all. Secondly, most people continue to believe he has Terri's best interests at heart.
His quick flight to Washington was media hype if he fails to write an executive order.

It will be hard for me too.
Here's my vanity on the subject:
