Sadly, it's not going to happen

I don't think so either. But I have to wonder why they've even issued such a statement.

Makes me think that:

a)They really mean it....least likely I think.

b)This is a show down, literally, of the judiciary and the executive branch. The statement is part of the grand bluff.

c)They don't mean a word of it and are just covering their bureaucratic butts.

I'd go with B. Everything done to date is bluff stuff. Issuing the congressional subpoena, hinting that Florida's DCF would get involved. I think last weekend's congressional action was NOT a bluff. But the other things were done to creat a bluff.

In the end I do not see armed guards going in and kidnaping Terri.

although I'd sure like ti.

To cover themselves, all the way to Jeb. It gives the impressions that they tried to stop the starvation (killing), but the courts (judges) stopped them.

(d) This is what they were directed to say by the governor's office.

It's definately not this option. The judges just do the "wet work" for the legislators, so that their hands can stay clean for re-election.
