What do you think of the possibility of the President ordering the federal marshal service to protect her as a lawfully-subpoenaed witness based on the Congressional summons?

I like Bush, but he doesn't have the balls. Nobody seems to have the balls to stand up the judiciary.

I hold this out as a very real possibility. Just do it, and let the courts settle the resulting Constitutional crisis. Meanwhile, Terry lives.

Either that or an executive action to enforce the Law that Congress passed just after midnight Monday morning and Whittemore virtually ignored in his ruling.

This law's intent is for Terri to have a "de novo" review of her case in federal court.
Start over, in other words.
Whittemore's "opinion" is in error, in my opinion, since he seems to defer to Greer's findings and assumes that the Schindlers don't have a chance to prevail in a new venue.
He's not supposed to do that, according to this Law.

That's just my take on the ruling, as a layman.
