Had they addressed the issue prior to her tube being pulled and it becoming an emergency, I would have proposed to Governor Bush a law that guardianship be stripped from anyone involved in criminal or immoral activity against the guarded individual, including adultery.
If I was in congress when the tube was pulled I would have done the same thing I did as a citizen, plead to the Governor or the President to step up to the plate.
Jeb could have taken her into custody without appealing to judge Greer. The government can take your kids if they suspect you spanked one, surely taking Terri away from her adulterous husband who was starving her wouldn't have been a reach.
President Bush could have declared her an enemy combatant and shipped her off to Guantanamo if that's what it took. Action should have been taken, not grandstanding.

But they didn't want to go outside the "law". What a joke. But this Judge Greer must be pretty powerful. After all, he laughed at congressional subpoenas, told Gov. Bush he had better not send in the DCF to try and remove Terri, and ignored any and all evidence presented by Terri's parents. I guess the rest of government was powerless to defeat Judge Greer.
