I guess so .. because I see people using laws that have no relevance to the court cases and yet they want it to apply to Terri - it's too late.
I'm physically sick over this issue with Terri - and I am dreading her death. I can't explain it - but I still believe with all my heart that the Bush brothers did all the law would allow them to do to help her. It's sad, really.
George, yes, as the feds decided this to be an issue that should be decided by the states (since it wasn't going to cost the feds any money by withholding services) in 1997.
Should Jeb provoke a state's constitutional, separation of powers conflict regarding this?
That is his decision to make.

Just saw a fascinating edition of Hardball with David Gregory. One guest, a Dr. Bernadine Healy (I think) with U.S. News & World Report stated that Terri's last exam by a qualified Neurologist was in 2002, and that relied on criteria going back to about 2000. She was adament that using today's standards and technology just might have yeielded very different results, and that if an error was to be made, it should have been on the side of life...at least until new tests could be made using current technology.
