If Jeb Bush has the courage of his convictions then sometime tonight, state police will sieze Terry. Otherwise Jeb was just grand standing when he stated the DCF had the authority to place Terry in protective custity.

"Otherwise Jeb was just grand standing when he stated the DCF had the authority to place Terry in protective custity."

I agree with you. When people really mean something they just do it, not make announcements or threats. Anyway, there's no time left for bluffing and manuevering, action is what is necessary. Jeb Bush, as Governor of Florida, needs to take control of this thing and send in the Family Services representatives with some State Troopers and take Terri to a hospital. Political fallout be damned, in the end he will be known as a hero. The media are calling his bluff by claiming all of America wants Terri Schiavo to die and don't want any political involvement.

Just a thought, but when a Governor (or President) pardons a person convicted by a judge or jury, isn't he in essence exercising his ability to override the ruling of a judge? Can't a governor intervene in this case by exercising some sort of similar power? I know I'm grasping at straws, but I just can't sleep knowing that this pig Greer is starving a woman to death and everyone in this entire nation is impotent to do a damn thing about it.
