"How could President Bush have prevented Terri’s death and still act within his constitutional powers? He returned early to sign what Congress passed but as I recall it was that Horrible Judge, the revolting Lawyer and the big hole in the Florida State Law." My belief is that all he had to do was go down there to see Terri himself. What were they going to do, arrest him? Also, there is no big hole in the FL state law. THAT is the law - that pvs patients can be starved and dehydrated to death, even if they are nowhere near dying. And, guess who signed that into law- FL Statute 765? None other then JEB BUSH! Unbelievable, huh? State sanctioned murder! In these, our United States.

My point exactly. GW did what he could do on a Federal level, that is his only venue of relief. Your “belief” doesn’t coincide with what The Pres. was constitutionally able to do. I understand your frustration, but Jeb Bush was Constitutionally bound by his own State Law.
You want to be angry, be angry at the idiots who write these laws without anticipating the consequences, in this case the Florida Legislature. There are always evil little Weasels like that Feltzer turd who was Michael’s Lawyer that find these loopholes
