Jeb Bush's New Low

In a move that can only be described as a desperate attempt to placate his extreme right base, Governer Jeb Bush is now asking for an investigation into how and why Terri Schiavo collapsed. Apparently Jeb (like his brother George) does not read opinion polls like the one where at least 64% of Americans disapproved of the government meddling that went on in this poor woman's case. It is absolutely sick that this man is getting away with this. I cannot believe that people are not descending on his office like vultures to protest his further interference. Unbelievable. Where is the moral outrage? Where is the protest? Or are those things the exclusive property of the religious right?

Amal, this is an incredibly dumb thing for Jeb to do. But Jeb is far from stupid, so I have to wonder what kind of pressure he's getting from his supporters. In this case, he should have told them to shut up and sit down. I'm sure even he recognizes that sometimes you have to admit that you were wrong.

Ah...but his last name is "Bush" so he can a)get away with all kinds of horrible horrible things and b)do it all wile spouting off about righteousness and christianity because some people think he's related to God.

Thanks for visiting my blog!
