Of course, if they went in with all guns blazing the lefties would claim that the chimp and his brother are nazi egomaniacs who think they can play God by forcing Terri to live when she so obviously wants to die.
There is no winning with them ... they just pick a headline, choose the opposite opinion and blame the right.
So what? The Lefties are going to believe the worst of GW no matter what he does.
And when the MSM starts nattering such nonsenses, they should be reminded of Elian Gonzales, or the Branch Davidians, when it comes to Nazi egomaniacs.
When it comes to exercising executive power, the Dems seem to have the balls.

And if they went in guns blazing, more people would have died. The Democrats would have had a field day with that, would have played up the "causing death to save a life" card, alienated Congressional Republicans to the point where they most certainly would back off the nuclear option on the judges, and probably found a current to ride in order to gain control of the Congress in '06.
It's easy to be emotional and say what we would LIKE to have seen happen. It's quite another to see the broader picture and ramifications such actions would have on our future ability to move our agenda forward.
Right now, more than ever, it is essential for us to stick together and to avoid throwing Republicans over the side because of perceived failures. To do so is to ignore that situations can change and is to commit ourselves to the liberal agenda before we have even truly begun to fight.
If you're a man of principle, it's not about winning with them, it's about life.
Shalom.
