I agree. I actually think Jeb can do more, as some as Bill Bennet have argued. HOWEVER, I totally understand his unwillingness not to start a civil war in the state of Florida over this. Do I think he should do more? Yes. But do I fully understnad his reasons for not? Yes.
FURTERMORE, attacks on him by people who are getting irrational are getting totally out of line. WITHOUT JEB BUSH TERRI SCHIAVO WOULD HAVE DIED TWO YEARS AGO. JEb Bush has been Terri's #1 public advocate. Jeb has been by her side throughout this. I bet you if Terri Schiavo knew what the governor of Florida had done, she would be very grateful.
I know if I was in a similar situation, I'd be very grateful, but I"m not positive I'd want him to start a civil war in my state over it.
Jeb Bush deserves praised in this, not irrational hatred for refusing to put his state troops against state sheriffs in an effort to save Terri.
thanks for making those good points about Jeb
