"The President can do no such thing."

The president or the governor can issue an exective order whenever they wish.

You, of course, being an atheist and an anti-Christ, would rather not see it happen.

Free Terri and jail the rest!

It seems to me the parents need to start shifting the focus to a wrongful death suit against Shiavo, Felos, and Greer. Felos was previously a board member of the very hospice where she's dying. Felos and his attorneys are huge campaign contributors to Greer. Greer has consistently ruled for death, even against a woman currently trying to prevent the state from pulling her husband's plug. Hopefully they can use the discovery phase of the civil suit to unearth the details of the shady connections everyone knows are there, but have never been coherently articulated.

For pete's sake. That's just not true. Executive orders are limited to specific areas. We do not live in a dictatorship. The President's power is limited, as is the Governor's. I wouldn't have it any other way. Would you?

Just imagine a Clinton with unlimited power...I knew you could.

The executive order has to have a basis in some law authorizing the President or Governor to take a particular action.
