I only wish that he would have acted in the same manner as the mayor of San Francisco. Go in and rescue her, then fight it out in the courts, instead of going to the rogue court and asking for their permission.
He is still the best ally that Terri had working for her. God Bless him.
Jeb: "The opportunity we had was appealing his decision."
Its over. This statement is past-tense.
The US and State Governments can now move forward to reduce their Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid obligations and expenditures in a similar manner......there is precedence......abortion-on-demand has reduced the number of likely Govt dependents for years, and now euthanasia will do the same.
And the hell of it is that many decent folks on either side of the Schiavo issue have been fooled.
Would anyone in here want to see her euthanized than starved to death? Would you rather Dr. Kevorkian help her?
Just wondering since Glen Beck on the radio was mad that a rat can be euthanized and Terri has to starve to death.
I beg to differ. I think he has fallen grossly short. Terri is being murdered and he has not stopped it. He can do so without resorting to extralegal means, but he refuses to do so.
Making threats to MS on an anonymous internet forum makes you appear silly.
See my post 16.
Avoiding a constitutional crisis is a good place to draw the line.
Trust me if some members of the Fl legislature have gotten death threats you know MS has.
This brings to question about this bimbo he is living with. You would think that if they are getting threats she would say walk away and get on with our lives.
I remember an episode of Law and Order, A guy walked on killing his wife, a few seasons later he killed his current wife and almost walked again. but was caught. If I was this bimbo BE CAREFUL. Don't piss Michael off!!!!!!!!!!
Why?
Because: "... the rule of law carries the ever-present danger of becoming rule by judges and lawyers. "
Overwhelmingly, politicians are lawyers and therefore, satisfied with the system and their role in it.
How about the possibility he is doing what he thinks is right given the situation and the authority he has.? Just because it doesn't agree with your sense of what every one should be doing doesn't mean they are wrong and you are right.
Pontius.

How do you sleep at night?
Your response toward Gov. Bush is completely absurd. Jeb has worked tirelessly to save this woman's life. You flippantly assume that he is a eunuch and then curse him. You could disagree with the Gov's course of action, but it's shameless to slime him this way.
Gov. Bush has done all he can except utilize the emergency removal procedure, which does not require court pre-approval.
Various legal scholars have agreed that the judge lacks legal authority to prevent this.
The only conclusion I can make is that Gov. Bush is not convinced that she is not in a PVS, because if she's not, he should go in and get her.
Even if Jeb yanked Terri out of the hospice right now, the DCF would have to appear before the Court within 24 hours anyway. Besides, there is a restraining order preventing him from taking Terri. These orders have the power of law.

Tell Gov. Jeb Bush to rescue Terri Schiavo.
AND THIS ADDED BY THE BAT LADY
The 14th amendment to the Constitution was ratified 7/9/1868
It Says.
No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of LIFE, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
I am nearly as much concerned that Governor Bush is allowing the judicial branch to trample all over the executive branch as I am that a young handicapped woman is being starved to death on his watch.
..according to Fed. Justice Moore, Jeb Bush does have the power....and has even offered his services to Jeb Bush to have him authorize taking Terri into custody. This was on Sean Hannity's show yesterday afternoon.
No heroes here. They all drink from the same trough.
I believe that order exceeds the judge's powers. Professor Turley (renowned constitututional scholar) agrees, as the judicial branch cannot order the executive branch not to enforce a valid law, only not to enforce an invalid law or to enforce a valid law.
The emergency removal statute is on the books and could be used by Gov. Bush. That's my opinion as a TN lawyer for 14 years, but not admitted in FL.
