well of course you are right in that if we allowed it, manipulation of the law could gradually be imposed thus limiting our freedoms....but if the Bush's do what some on FR would have them do, would they not be equally guilty of manipulating the law, or is it OK when we don't agree with the outcome....????????.....doesn't clarity on our land at least have to be backed up by not just reason but also legal standing in at least this type of circumstance?
He has already taken his stand..........."The courts have defined my authority on this matter"
Governor Bush would be better off staying in Tallahassee the rest of his term.
He is going to find very quickly that he is fresh out of friends.
Right, like Bill and Hillary and Janet Reno and Sandy Berger.
Are you a moron or just joking with us?
Never again?

the nation as a whole polls on the side of MS?????
WHAT? Don't think so.
Spoke to a few people today who listen to talking heads - when I revealed the truth - they did not believe it - "It can't be true" - I directed them to some info. They now know the truth.
Wait until this week is over - and more and more people find what really is happening.
They fear gov't intervention in their family matters????
They get that from the liberals - fear monkers. When they understand it is about murder......hmmmm. What will you say then - you know the truth - you are here. Not everyone listens to Sean/Rush or access FreeRepublic - it's only been in the news one week - wait.
First you gotta find him before you can press him..
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.[emphasis added is mine]
--The Declaration of Independence
Thankfully there were men two centuries ago who placed justice ahead of their own personal well-being.
Thanks. Glad to be here, finally.
Nobody will ever confuse Jeb Bush with a patriot.
you can wag you finger...but most of the polls right now, and I don't mean ABC or their ilk are decidedly against govt intervention..........they don't say they want Terri to die, they say the gov't needs to stay out of the matter.....it has been on all of cable.......plus many think that is why Bush's approval rating tanked by 7 points just this week......you don't have to like it...it is the truth
I often wonder how many "true" patriots there are today. . .
Well, in this case Governor Bush could initiate a criminal investigation. The husband had medical treatment withheld from the wife. He represents her wishes and not his own.
Would she have wanted therapy to be denied her in this extreme state? If anyone she loved had hope for her?
Would she still want to die?
The little boy could be a 'time traveler'!
Well then go resist why don't you? If it's your obligation, what the hell are you doing sitting in front of your keyboard?
Someone in that governor's mansion needs to grow a set and send in a Battalion of National Guard troops. Let the cops get into a shootout if they want and the bastards will be pushing up daisies.
That's crap. Do you stand by and okay the judge's ruling if they say it is okay to withhold food from my 3 year autistic child who has no "quality of life" according this fascists standard?
I seem to recall several instances in history where judges were relegated to a debating club because their decisions were against the "will of hte people". Our country is country By The People and For The People,
NOT BY THE JUDGES FOR THE PEOPLE or... BY THE LAWS FOR THE PEOPLE. We rule ourselves and believe or not courts are human beings making them fallible. The day I believe that a black robe makes "truth" is the day this republic dies. From my dead cold hands...
