He has the power to enforce the consitution as he interprets it to be, and if he's wrong he can be impeached and removed for his wrong intepretations.

He could have put it on the line for her, and he chose not to. Does that make him a bad person? No, after all he did try. We can't ask everyone to jump into the fire to rescue the person trapped inside and call all these who didn't do it bad people.

I would suspect most of those who are criticizing Jeb aren't willing to go all the way either. Look at how many of them are posting here rather on down there at the hospice risking being arrested to give her water. Anyone who isn't handicapped has the physical ability to do that, but they don't want to actually risk getting arrested, so instead they are here carping about how Jeb Bush failed them.

The "don't ask Jeb to do anything if you aren't ready to shoot your way into the hospice" argument has been blown up long ago. Try to keep up.

Jeb is the governor, not you or I. Terri's parents aren't asking for you or I to break into the hospice. They ARE asking Jeb to intervene. Evidently, you want us to do something that has ZERO chance of succeeding and would be absolutely against the parents' wishes. Also, by your reasoning, if the parents aren't willing to make a commando raid, then they have no right to ask Jeb for help or to criticize his lack of action. ABSOLUTE, 100% GARBAGE.
