As you say, that's the way it's supposed to be.
Here's what's bothering me a lot. This is from my heart.
I try to envision myself in Gov. Bush's shoes and also, the president's. And I cannot even imagine allowing a woman to dehydrate into a dried mummy - if I had the authority to step in.
I hate to say this, but this is something Hitler would find no problem with. Or Saddam.
Of course, the president and the governor did not cause this, but they can do something to stop it - yet they do not. The executive branch has much more power to act than these men are using.
I see inaction on the part of people who can take action to stop evil - as wrong.
There are tons of issues surrounding this calling the husband into question, yet.....not much concern expressed by the president or the governor.
The president talks about how awful Saddam was and justifies a war costing America dearly. Yet he does nothing now - even though it's abundantly clear that he can take positive action if you've read Alan Keyes piece on the subject. http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=43472
Saddam sprayed civilians with chemicals causing them to die horrific deaths. How is this situation with Terri much different? This is like the governor and the president know an American citizen is being harmed in the worst way and they can stop it - but they don't.
It seems the Bushes would be worried about how this is making them look to people....that they'd be concerned people are going to seriously lose confidence in their leadership.
This is like the brazon disregard a dictator would employ, isn't it? As in just not really responding to people's concerns?
Gov. Bush just says he can't do anything. Well, I'd like to hear him debate Dr. Alan Keyes and CONSTITUTIONALLY DETAIL exactly why he can't. But he won't even explain anything. He just says "I can't and I won't." Right?
How is this different from what dictators would allow in other countries????
We've got ten year old children being handcuffed for trying to give a dehydrating woman water.....and the governor is washing his hands. He's having dinner every day and drinking water. He's enjoying a nice comfortable governor's mansion in Florida.
How can he live with himself??? If he is truly a good man?
I'm sorry, but my brain is not registering how any good and decent honest person with constitutional authority to act - could be allowing this.
I've heard some people say the president knew about 9-11 ahead of time and things like that. I never believed it before, but now how can I deny it? How do I answer such people?
In the movie Schindler's List there is a part showing Jews on a train and they are having difficulty understanding where they're going. It's really eerie because in the scene they are having trouble comprehending that Hitler would be not have their best interests at heart. They are in denial.
And I have to ask myself: Am I in denial if I think the best of the Bushes here?
I mean....think about it: How can any good, decent human being allow this when they have constitutional authority to act?
It makes no sense....
It's an honest question. I'm not meaning to demean the office of president or governor, but this, to me, is far, far, far worse than anything Clinton did with Monica.
I'd much rather think the best of the Bushes - it would feel a lot more comfortable. But I'm having trouble....
This is way, way off the charts.
Am I the only one here feeling this stuff?
