"Answer: Jeb Bush sold out for political expediency.
Judge Greer has more power than either of the Bush boys."
Or he or his family was threatened.
"Dog Catcher"
Quite right. Dog catchers rescue starving animals.
"Nixon also funded the Johnson Great Society."
Not true. The Democrat Congress composed and passed the budget and Nixon signed it as he lacked a line item veto.
GWB has no such excuse for allowing what he does with a clear GOP majority in both Houses of Congress.
Nixon I can excuse becuase it is only logical.
GWB, as you say, may well have no real problem with Judge Greer which would explain why he has done veritably nothing to save an innocent American.
Yeah, just like the bloody gunbattle at the University of Alabama when Nicholas Katzenbach, under Robert Kennedy, stood up against Governor George C. Wallace. Read your history, konoyaro. You are just making excuses. The facts even show that Bush was readying a state agency to go there under State executive authority.
....needs to be repeated!!!!
That goes not just for Jeb but the judge and husband as well. I expect eventually Greer, if there's any conscience there will begin to feel immense guilt for sentencing an innocent woman to death.
Jeb is a coward, and he helped increase the power of the judicial branch even further.
The 'final' solution to social security dollar shortfall?
Gov. Bush has done a lot, and it is in very poor taste to criticize him for not taking everything into his own hands. What's happening to Terri via court order is horrible and tragic, but Jeb is the last one we should be criticizing for it.
A governor or president is every bit as bound by a court order as anyone else.
A moral duty to interfere can be argued. Since all legal means of appeal have been exhausted and rejected, there is no legal basis for Jeb or GW to interfere.
There are excellent reasons to reexamine the laws that allowed this travesty. I believe there are none to legitimately criticize executives who enforced those laws even when they disagreed with them. They should be applauded, not denounced.
Do we or do we not want governors, presidents and judges who follow the law even when they disagree with it?
If not, principled opposition to the writing of law by judges is dead. You have no basis by which to criticize judges for writing laws, only that you personally dislike the results of what they produce.
County LEOs under the direct control of a judge? That alone should be seen as a breach of constitutional authority.

At the very least, Governor Jeb Bush should respond to Michael Schiavo's explicit public invitation, by showing up unannounced with everyone and everything he needs to make a final and sudden decision on whether he should attempt to save Terri's life right now.

what, exactly, would you all have Gov or Pres Bush do? and how would you have him/them do it? under what authority? and, how long would any such action be in effect before it was overturned, returning Terri to exactly where she is today? this does strike me as placing blame and anger in the wrong direction.
That would be a nirvana moment for many here at FR. Or even worse, FLNGmen shooting at Pinellas County LEOs. Waco looks like a piñata party compared to what these halfwits want.
It's so sad and so not funny, I've decided to refrain from making my views about the Terri Schiavo known to the forum. It's just not worth it.

I personally enjoy the DUers coming here to incite and rabble rouse. If you can't see'em on the way in, ya sure can smell'em a mile a way.
