Exactly........it's emotion running roughshod over clear and reasoned thinking, as well as our Constitution and laws.

It has nothing to do with Jeb's not wanting to, nor having the courage to save Terri. It has to do with his having many legal advisors going through Florida law to find any loophole (that won't be filled with another Greer decision) that can help him take custody of her, and the fact of the matter that there is none......at least none that they have found yet.

It's tragic, but it's the law that must be changed. It's the judicial dominance that must be stopped. Attacking the Bush's will do nothing but make the leftists happy.........and I'm sure they're thrilled with some freepers right now........

again, I concur. This tragic episode is testing the principles of our party......I'm just flabbergasted at some of the BS some here would advocate to get their way...The law is the law and we can't just chuck it out the window. Remember when Mayor Newsome married all the gay couples because of his "moral" convictions.....we were screaming bloody murder and he was spanked by the court.......but now that some here want to use "moral" conviction to circumvent the law......well than it is ok?????....You, me and many others actually think NOT

to find any loophole

You miss the point. Jeb could find some threadbare excuse; he could cliam that there are rumors of abuse at the hospice, patients being mistreated--it would be a lie, perhaps, but it would be a foot in the door that would allow a massive police action on the part of Florida law enforcement and/or the Fl National guard. All Jeb needs is a pretext, however transparent. Judge Greer will scream bloody murder, but so what. A judge, like the pope, has no divisions. When it comes to saving a life, might DOES make right.
