I have no respect for Jeb Bush and I will never believe anything he says - after what happened to Terri on his watch. Now all of a sudden he cares about INNOCENT people. Give me a break!!!
Oh, Saundra, I think you are wrong. He was involved with that case for many years, and did everything he could as governor to help her and her family, at the request of her family. He could not violate the court's rulings but he tried and tried to do everything else. Unless there is ever a law to eliminate a marriage contract for a seriously disabled person, so that others in the family, like parents, can step in, there is nothing that any politician can do to prevent a spouse from doing what Terri's spouse did. Terri could not get a divorce from him and her parents could not step in and ask for one, though I think that should have been an option. Many others on FR disagreed with me on that. Gov Bush could not cancel that marriage contract either!
And, Gov Bush has always cared about innocent people.
