'Terri's Law isn't about Terri — it's about Gov. Bush'
That quote is courtesy of bioethicist Jon Eisenberg of Oakland, after Jeb's pandering to Florida's hard-core right, refuting Terri Schiavo's apparent wish to not be artificially kept alive, was unanimously rejected by the Florida Supreme Court.

Terri's husband, Michael, has had a painful personal choice deliberately politicized by people who care nothing for his personal state, while claiming to be about the rights of individual people.

Meanwhile, we have this comment on Florida GOP hypocrisy in this from the state Speaker of the House:

Speaker Johnnie Byrd, the Republican who pushed for the law last year, called the decision "tragic but not unexpected."
