Were I simply assuming, I would have to agree with you. I am basing my opinion on a situation that has been in court for over 10 years, discussed nine ways til Sunday and ruled on numerous times. If that's naive, then hell I'll wear that banner.

How many court rulings do you have in favor of the Schindlers and the Bushes?

How many was that again?

So it doesn't matter how many times the courts, both federal and state, have ruled, eh?

Seriously, why do you think the courts don't see or don't believe the evidence you see and believe? Are they on a mission to kill Terri, as Mrs. Schindler alleges in the news today about Judge Greer? Is the information just not getting to them for some reason?

Of course, you know I disagree. I do not believe Pres. Bush would have gotten involved in this if not for trying to score a few political points for himself and Gov. Bush by stirring up the fundies. His position now is in direct opposition to his position on the Futile Care law in Texas he signed while Governor of Texas.

And do we have to discuss Gov. Bush's last attempt to circumvent the courts being ruled unconstitutional? And now he's talking about taking up arms in defying the court.

G H W Bush must be so proud of his boys

Oh, so do I. So do I. And it has nothing to do with Terri Schiavo.
