Yes, they've stirred things up, but neither have stepped up to the plate. When push came to shove, they let themselves be shoved. Jeb knew 15 months ago that Terri's Law was just to give her time. He had those 15 months to do something but didn't. He waited until the last minute and again had to call an emergency session to pass a flimsy thrown together bill. He spouted about sending in the DCF to Greer and surprise! Greer beat him to the punch. Jeb and DCF can gone in to get her but Jeb doesn't have the guts and is too worried about his future political ambitions. W, however doesn't have any higher ambitions so he has nothing to lose, yet he's doing nothing either.
As hurt as we are at our hands being tied, let us look at things:
Mountains were moved for Terri, that seldom have been moved, and Jeb was behind a lot of it.
If Jeb had gotten the DCF to take her into protective custody, it still would have taken a court ruling to approve of it, and they would have lost, because Greer had authority, and at best, they would have gotten Terri two days, and cause a political uproar.
If Jeb had kept Terri without court approval, then there would have been a major political crisis.
Although you might think the state police and national guard belong to Jeb, it's not that simple. Their bosses understand politics and would make decisions based on that. They may have refused to back Jeb, they may have chosen to side with the courts or the legislature, and you would have had a real mess.
The state would have been in great turmoil, nothing would have stayed accomplished, Jeb would probably have been impeached and probably convicted, and it would have been impossible for him to do anything else for the citizens of Florida. And Terri would have still been allowed to die.
It is a shame, but a governor is not a king, and I know Jeb looked at every possible political reality and no doubt found out that the state police weren't going to back him, that not enough people in the legislature weren't going to back him, the DCF felt their chances of keeping Terri were slim and he didn't have enough real power to pull it off.
The man worked hard, but he is not Jesus. He couldn't make a miracle.
Miracles are in the hands of God.
