Good news, but such bad luck that Kennedy is the one who is over this district. Well, the Chief Justice is back from his sick bed (no coincidence me thinks) so hopefully Kennedy will not be able to totally quash it -- against the legislative intent for a new review -- that the 11th Circuit did.

Keep us posted please. I feel as though I am on a death watch. But I guess I should give up on news for now, and read to my daughter.

Well, that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. How can they possibly take children from neglectful parents if the parants have to say OK?

Well, it's going to be another bad night. Satan seems unbound this week, doesn't he?

Isn't it always this way at Easter?

JOE SCARBOROUGH HAD THE MOST COMPELLLING CLOSING REMARKS ON HIS SHOW

Joe said Terri is a child made in the eyes of God.

What have we become as a nation that we allow this woman to be starved to death

Then he said may God have mercy on us all.

It was something to that effect.

As maddeneing as it is to watch I'm begiining to believe we're seeing a very carefully constructed process executed driven by the Executive Branches of both the Florida and Federal Governments (read: Jeb and W) that at it's heart is meant to save Terri's life. The tricky part is they're trying to do it in such a way that respects and uses to full adavntage the three distinct jurisdictions of constitutional authority.

The Legislative Branch is now out of the picture, both in Washington and Florida. The only Judicial point not yet explored is the USSC, but FOX is reporting that is now underway. If Kennedy blows it off (I think he might...no specific reason, just a hunch) the Judicial Branch options will have been exhausted.

Which leaves only the Executive Branch, which at both the Federal and State level have openly expressed their desire for Terri to live.

The hearing allowing DCF to take custody of Terri is simply a sop to the part of their enabling legislation that covers normal circumstances. If it's refused they can immediately go to the emergency provisions and remove Terri and not have to justify it before a court until at least mid-next week.

Once again, Bush let the Legislators recuse themselves, let the Courts run to the end of their script, and can now, with full authority, bring the power of the Executive Branch to bear and no one can legitimately claim he's usurped the authority of any other Branch. To make things even better, the section in the DCF statute is not new law, yet reads as if it were written to protect just such a person as Terri.

And if all this fails, I wouldn't be surprised if W has an Ace hiding in his boot.

>>It turns out that the law states if there is a guardian, they can go into the hospice, but they can not remove her.

And they're just finding this out now, eh?

They do not need him to agree with it. This was clearly stated earlier on FOX. DCF has say over the judge due to the new evidence.

Republic, I'm just trying to give you all some facts re what's happening within the grounds. Leave me out of it, otherwise.

Wow. That's excellent. I wonder if they need only get a different judge for the court order?

I believe the evildoers are counting on our outrage simmering down and becoming apathy over time - as it has with abortion

And the "outrage" will die down. People are more interested in paying "their fair share" of taxes and amusing themselves than standing for principle. This attitude goes back to the Great Society, and one could argue earlier as well.

I sure hope so, because I'm going to need my homeschooled son to be very successful. So he can pay for that nice rest home I'm dreaming of.

LOL, JK.

Homeschooling is a challenge with a strong-willed, hyperactive 5, almost 6-year-old.

If this all plays out as you have laid it out, I will be in complete awe of those Bush brothers.
