The president and his brother are playing US ALL for fools!!!

Even poor Terri's Dad said on Sean's program that both men could write executive orders and he CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY they are not!!!

What do you say to people who stand by allowing your own child to be terrorized and dehydrated to death?

Terri's mother on Sean Hannity said earlier that Terri's mouth and throat are so very dry - they can hardly hear her speak now.

DRY!

I'm a conservative who has backed the Bushes left and right, but from now on - don't anyone DARE sing their praises in front of me or I'll speak the plain truth.

I am not going to be a FOOL continuing to make excuses for men who could easily write executive orders and get this woman water!

Take your rose colored glasses off people! See people by their fruits - not their titles!!

No. I don't want to have to post an apology on Summer's thank you thread again. I bad mouthed Jeb big time once before. He took his sweet time but he did come thru.

She can't speak, the Bushes CAN'T write executive orders regarding this, you don't want to understand that and keep repeating the same nonsense.

As maddeneing as it is to watch I'm begiining to believe we're seeing a very carefully constructed process executed driven by the Executive Branches of both the Florida and Federal Governments (read: Jeb and W) that at it's heart is meant to save Terri's life. The tricky part is they're trying to do it in such a way that respects and uses to full adavntage the three distinct jurisdictions of constitutional authority.

The Legislative Branch is now out of the picture, both in Washington and Florida. The only Judicial point not yet explored is the USSC, but FOX is reporting that is now underway. If Kennedy blows it off (I think he might...no specific reason, just a hunch) the Judicial Branch options will have been exhausted.

Which leaves only the Executive Branch, which at both the Federal and State level have openly expressed their desire for Terri to live.

The hearing allowing DCF to take custody of Terri is simply a sop to the part of their enabling legislation that covers normal circumstances. If it's refused they can immediately go to the emergency provisions and remove Terri and not have to justify it before a court until at least mid-next week.

Once again, Bush let the Legislators recuse themselves, let the Courts run to the end of their script, and can now, with full authority, bring the power of the Executive Branch to bear and no one can legitimately claim he's usurped the authority of any other Branch. To make things even better, the section in the DCF statute is not new law, yet reads as if it were written to protect just such a person as Terri.

And if all this fails, I wouldn't be surprised if W has an Ace hiding in his boot.
