at least five briefs have been filed that state Jeb Bush has the authority to sieze her

And Greer ruled that he didn't. Those briefs weren't worth the paper they were printed on.

Check out the Dec. of Ind

The Declaration of Independence has no force of law. It is not a basis for constitutional action by the governor of Florida. However, the language you cite contains important natural law concepts. If you are going to argue these as a basis for action, then you have as much right and obligation to enter the hospice and re-insert the feeding tube as Jeb Bush does.

Also the courts are under the jurisdiction of Congress - congress has issued a review of the case and also required Ms. Schiavo to testify. These are not being enforced thus the judge is not acting within his powers

These issues have all been litigated throughout the court system. The Schindlers lost. Re-liitgating the case as a basis for executive action is a non-sequitur.

Like I said, until you go to Florida and are arrested for re-inserting the feeding tube, you have no basis to take cheap shots at Jeb Bush.

Let us not forget that these courts are unconstitutional. Dare you disagree? Also, eventhough that I agree that I have the power to enter the hospice I could not, Jeb Bush however could enter the hospice. Do you agree that Lincoln did the right thing in suspending the constitution to free the slaves? No one person had the power that the pres. Lincoln did in declaring war - if a citizen at that time would have tried to free a slave in a confederate state he would of been arrested. But history shows that Lincoln did the right thing by enforcing the natural law concepts of the Dec. Of Ind. Who would cite against him today, eventhough many did at the time.
