You should not be criticizing Jeb Bush, he did everything and some that was within his power.

The blame lies with MIchael Schiavo, his lawyer and Judge Greer, and as secondary responsibility, the Florida Legislature, but NOT Jeb Bush.

Well, well. I suppose that if Jeb Bush was walking by a lake that had a "No Swimming" sign that was posted due to some law and Jeb saw a child drowning he'd point to the sign and say "sorry, I can't help that kid".

Jeb Bush is a p*$$y. He's unmanly, timid and doesn't have the character to ever represent me in the White House. Some might say "But Nick, he was following the law. Oh gosh golly, what if he did not follow the law? He might get in trouble or mess up his political career?" To that I say so what! Some things are bigger than that. But unfortunately Jeb Bush wasn't a big enough man to put the life of someone else above his political career. He does not have the right stuff.

It is great that Terry Wallis is finally recovering!

However, in regards to Terri Schiavo, the blame IS with Michael, his lawyer and the judge, but Jeb Bush did not do all that he could do. He states that he did, but that is only if you let a little local judge make such a ruling that is not in full accordance with all of the evidence and testimony considered. Much of it, the judge struck down as inadmissible. That was the judge's ruling.

Jeb hid behind the excuse of this negligent judge, and accepted his ruling (of only part of the testimony being used that suited his purpose). This petty little judge wanted to be a big boy for the powers behind the money trail (the hospice, right to death'ers [the Hemlock crowd], etc.). This little judge did not consider all of the evidence and testimony........this is far to similar to the people that don't know the definition of "is."

Jeb Bush would have been overriding the judge's ruling, but the judge's analysis was blatantly flawed. Jeb Bush could have used his executive authority to take custody of Terri and put her in protective care until a full review of her situation was honestly performed. He may have had to violate the judge's ruling, but this judge should not be the final ruler of the situation.

My wife and I watched the news coverage of this as it was going on, and we couldn't believe that nobody of authority took any significant action. We nearly cried that this could be happening. Nobody was doing anything to make an honest assessment of her current condition. We thought that some people would have done everything possible to potentially save her if it were possible.

I remember those thoughts quite vividly. That fall (2005), my wife was suddenly diagnosed with Ovarian cancer. She died less than three months from that time. We did try all that we could do, but ultimately the efforts were unsuccessful.

No, do not know what the Schindlers (?) have gone through all those years, but I can feel a little of what it was like. I just thank God that I at least had the opportunity to try to save my wife, and I still thank God for all of the time that I had with her.

May God continue to bless and heal Terry Wallis. May God bless Terri and help comfort and heal the grief of the Schindlers.

Jeb Bush could and should have sent in troops to the killing hospice, and rescued Terri. A murder was being committed under color of law, and he chose not to stop it.
