may it happen NOW before it is too late.

If I were Jeb, I would act now, before the Supreme Court rules. If he waits, hoping he won't have to act, he'll look positively weird if he then goes in there with the DCF. It'll look like he's flipping off the Supreme Court. If he flips off Greer, so what? Greer is nobody.

If he moves now, he gives the Supremes a huge break by taking the time pressure off of them. He can announce in advance that they're going to do an MRI scan, and the results will be available next week sometime. If I were on the Supreme Court, I think I'd wait for the MRI before joining in the judicial kill-fest. They don't want the entire Judicial Branch on record as voting to kill the woman the doctors just said is conscious and aware. They'll figure some hook to overrule Whittemore before they let that happen.

Two things, need to confirm. (1) Terri has a metal shunt or electrode in her head from previous treatments and (2) unless the metallic object is non-ferrous, wouldn't MRI be dangerous to perform?
