At least with Terri Schiavo, Governor Bush (Florida) tried to help, as did people on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. No, they betrayed her. They ACTED like they wanted to save Terri, but in the end it was just for show.
Jeb Bush, as governor had full authority under the Florida Constitution to take custody of Terri. He was afraid of a confrontation and backed down.
Congress had full authority to send federal marshals to take custody of Terri in order to execute a perfectly legal subpoena. They refused to do this.

I don’t mind being wrong. I am enjoying this thread being on Breaking News. Hope it lasts. This is the only good news we seem to have (maybe someone will overthrow the Libyan leader, and that will be good news for me...)

He washed his hands of her, imho.
