Does anyone know if Bush could issue an Executive Order to save Terri?

Bush can issue an executive order to do ANYTHING.
The question is whether or not it would be obeyed, and if it were, what the courts would say about it. It would definitely trigger a constitutional crisis.
If his actions were deemed to be illegal, the only redress available would be for the House to impeach him. I don't see that happening in any case.
While I'd do nearly anything to save Terri, is this REALLY what we want to do? The turmoil would be tremendous.

Of course he may.
Of course he can.
Maybe that's all that's left to do?
Surely this murder-by-"husband's"-judicial-surrogate must not proceed.
