[GWB and GOP Man]

I received an email from Jeb's office. I LOVED the first two or three sentences. After that, I was left with an uneasy feeling that he has done all he can do and it is in the hands of the courts. These are the same courts that attempted to rewrite election laws from the bench, during that infamous and embarrassing election of 2000, complete with dimpled and hanging chads.

These 'courts' are breaking the law and are denying basic human rights guaranteed by the US Constitution.

This is a very sad state of affairs.

These are the same courts that attempted to rewrite election laws from the bench,

Yes, indeed, when the FL Supremes tried to provide a victory "protocol" for Gore, the Bushes got involved in a hurry, didn't they? They sent in Jim Baker of Houston to manage their recount strategy. They did not take "No" for an answer from the courts. So why does Republican Jeb Bush meekly accept "No" in Terri's case? Will he be a candidate for the 2008 Republican presidential nomination? Is he seeking support from euthanasia advocates while giving lip service to right-to-life? "Inquiring minds want to know."

This is a canned response and I would urge you to pay it no mind. The Governor may be looking into this, but he can't quite send missives to the general public saying "You're right - let's tag those maggots!!" He has to play things pretty much down the middle. The good news is that he, or his office, understands that this is important enough not to blow off. Hence the canned letter.

He may get involved. He may not. But I think the fact that you recieved a reply indicates that he is well aware of the weight of the situation. My gut tells me he is probably not taking it very lightly. Time will tell.

This is DAY THREE for Fla. AG Crist. He has not intervened. His date with destiny is October 6th. Three days to go. If he doesn't intervene, that will be a win for Terri right there imo. Felos may cry foul.
