Hello Bush brothers...its time to come out and play.

I'm not saying there isn't anything these guys can do but in all fairness the deck was stacked against Terri since 2000 when Schiavo, Greer, Felos and company set this whole sorid tale in motion by lobbying to have the laws changed. Where was the outcry back then? Either nobody cared or nobody was looking while the this occurred.

It seems to me Jeb has been fighting this battle for a while and until late did not have much support nation wide.

Also, the right-to-life crowd has to acknowledge the contributions that W has made to the world with regards to protecting innocent Afghanis and Iraqis from the tyrannical governments that were out to destroy them.

We need to keep this all in perspective.

My prediction is that sadly, neither Jeb nor W will step in at the last minute and stop this atrocity. I don't think people will forget this and public outcry will be great when Terri does finally pass away. Bloggers will continue to hammer away at this Florida collusion of death and many things will be learned that will be eye opening to everyone.

You hit the nail on the head. That is the biggest failure of the Bush Brothers. The average joe doesn't have an army of staff to keep tabs on events. But when your business is politics, it is incumbent on you to deal with these events on a timely basis.

This thing was no surprise; and there should have been an indepth plan developed to deal with this long before it could escalate into a giant political football. Jeb Bush, who somehow managed to tie the knot in his own noose by signing the 1999 legislation, should have had legislation planned to close the legal loopholes. He also should have had many agencies at hand ready to prosecute and discredit this death cabal from every possible angle. But, last week when the crap finally hit the fan, we saw that Jeb was a hollow shell. That behind his rhetorical concerns, and his paniky last minute hail mary to the Florida legislature, he had done virtually nothing to prepare his case.
