" First lady Laura Bush said Tuesday the government was right to have intervened in the case of Terri Schiavo, a severely brain-damaged Florida woman whose case has stirred national debate about life and death issues.
"I just feel like the federal government has to be involved," Mrs. Bush said. "It is a life issue that really does require government to be involved." "
Yeah, Terri really benefitted from GW and the gang in Washinton stepping in....could they have made bigger fools of themselves? I think not.
GW and Jeb failed to protect Terri. There should have been a little less talk and a lot more action. I am so ashamed of their actions and I have always been proud to call GW my president...until now.
This is a sad time in American history when we not only let a man murder his brain-damaged wife, but the judiciary steps in and helps him. As far as I am concerned MS and Greer should be charged with murder as soon as Terri dies!
That's fair.
Whereas I'm ashamed of the people that expect the Reps to play the role of Savior and discount all they did in their limited human capability within law to help this woman.
Where we do agree is that the Judiciary assuming the right to put an innocent to Death is a disgraceful moment in our history.
Seems to me that you need to review constitutional law. The President does not really have judiciary powers. The courts are the "law" and are given the rights to interpret the laws as they so desire. The result of this tragedy is simply the inadequate judiciary system that evolved through the Clinton administration. Congress held GW's feet to the fire and has not allowed appropriate court appointments. Place the blame for all this squarely where it belongs - Those liberals in Congress.
LONG LIVE "W"
You should be ashamed of yourself. You spout the compassion for which the GOP is known, yet you yourself are being highly judgemental against the President and Governor. Their hands are tied by a corrupt and disorganized court system overrun by the dems. IF you want to be ashamed of someone, try Billy Bob Clinton and his wifey, Hillary, Cankles, Clinton. Oh, and Congress who thwarted "W's" attempt to bring balance to the court system.
