This whole Schiavo thing seems to have brought out all of the nutjobs residing on this forum.

I`m sure a lot is out of frustration,but this blame and bash Bush hobby that has arose in the last day or so is getting very old.

Amen to that. The problem with Governor Bush going in and taking custody of Terri is that it sets a precedent that liberal governors could use to intervene in court cases in ways we might not like, such as seizing custody of someone and ordering their feeding tube removed.

As for the discussion over the past few days, it would be nice if this passion was channeled into changing the laws so that the patient's wishes, not the next of kin's wishes are followed. Perhaps, instead of signing online petitions to impeach Jeb Bush who did everything in his power to save Terri, we could write to our representatives at both the state and federal level and ensure that favorable laws concerning end of life issues will be passed, especially strong guardian ad litem laws.
