FREEPERTOO WROTE: He's DISAPPOINTED!?!? Yeah, well, Gov, you may have an aw shucks gosh darn response to this, but Terris' gonna be dead. WHAT IS HE THINKING!?!?! """
FROM POST# 4622 PC93 WROTE THE FOLLOWING GREAT SUGGESTIONS TO PASS ON TO GOV JEB BUSH CONCERNING HIS ABILITY AND DUTY:
Question: Jeb’s authority as Florida Governor is defined by the courts? I thought he just said that he has a duty to uphold the law?
From another: I'm glad the governor pledged to do whatever he can within the laws of Florida. Check out what the law says the governor can do! Then go and hold him to it.
Florida Constitution
Article IV
SECTION 1. Governor.--
(a) ... The governor shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed, commission all officers of the state and counties, ... The governor may require information in writing from all executive or administrative state, county or municipal officers upon any subject relating to the duties of their respective offices. ...
(b) The governor may initiate judicial proceedings in the name of the state against any executive or administrative state, county or municipal officer to enforce compliance with any duty or restrain any unauthorized act.
...

Article I
SECTION 2. Basic rights.--All natural persons, female and male alike, are equal before the law and have inalienable rights, among which are the right to enjoy and defend life ... No person shall be deprived of any right because of ... physical disability.
I also sent the governor a long list of Florida Statutes that have been violated in Terri's case. The list is available at http://www.livejournal.com/~hubbyanddad/. (It's my own list- and by no means comprehensive.) """"

We should call the Gov and remind him what the constitution of Florida says. I'll try and find the Gov Fax # and send him a few faxes.
It can't be any more clear than that.
