AMEN! I’m afraid that if Jeb Bush was the Republican nominee, I could not vote for him because of this. It was cowardly and despicable.

Jeb Bush murdered Terri Schiavo.

Yes, he asked lots of OTHER people to save her. But they refused to do so. When it was JEB’S turn to save her life, he cowered under his desk.

Just remember that it took 13 days for Terri to die, from when water was withheld from her.

She died the most excruciating and painful, tortuous death one can imagine.

We would not allow a dog or a cat to die in this manner.

And Jeb did nothing.

Stay out da Bushes.

Yes. Ten years! This tragedy also explained to me quite plainly, through the prism of FR, that being conservative means completely different things for many people.

some denigrated Terri as not worth the cost of care

The same people who object to the death penalty, so that society must pay to warehouse a violent sadist for the next fifty years.

This is a disqualifier for the Jebster. I hope he doesn’t win a single delegate.

She was not on life support, I did not post that. I suppose you are referring to a another post.

As far as what I did post which was the “death spiral” comment what I was referring to was the thing that killed her. The removal of her feeding tube was the thing that put her in to a death spiral.

As far as Jebbie Bush? To hell with that wimp. His brother, George W. at least tried to reverse things. Why? Call me cynical but IMO it was because his brother, Jebbie, was being feckless and “W” was flying cover. Why? Because eventually Jebbie would run for the big show.

As far as death and not being able to “avoid it” Terri Schiavo could not protect herself. Jebbie could have but he lacks balls. I’d be happy to tell that to his face just like I told Neil Bush once to his face he was a crook. This country would be much better off if the entire Bush family got their greedy hands out of the taxpayers pockets. They also use their influence with many levels of government to enrich themselves. Mostly with equity in private companies in exchange for their influence which at times includes involvement in stock pump and dump schemes.

Terri Schiavo is an excellent example of what kind of man Jebbie is. He is a man not much different than the fraud Obama. Empty.

the feeding tube was life support.

She had been in a death spiral for 11 years.

It could have turned in to a shooting war of some kind with two different law enforcement agencies each with opposite orders.

Hogwash. You've been sold a bill of goods. Two state troopers with an order from the governor would have pulled her out of there, no problem.

This is not speculation on my part. I was standing in front of that hospice-made-Auschwitz, and directly asked the head of the security team that was there what he would do if such an order arrived. He without hesitation replied that he would of course obey any order from Governor Bush.

Of course no such order was forthcoming from Jeb Bush. He utterly failed to keep the most important obligation of his sacred oath.

What disease was she dying from? What was her life expectancy? Do you class your food and water as "life support". Why do you think that needing food and water is extraordinary measures to sustain life?

I was copying you on a post, I know that you are fully aware of the multiple travesties that culminated in Terri's murder.

I agree. There was much disinformation in MSM. If not for this site, I would have known very little about the case. I was so naive that I thought what was done to her could not happen in this country under a Republican governor.

I believe Jeb never planned to save her and used any excuse to have her killed. Has he even been asked to any extent to comment on the case now that he thinks he should carry on the Bush dynasty?
