Schiavo Update

Just a few tidbits today. The Schindler family (the parents of Terri Schiavo) have officially abandoned the courts and have turned all of their efforts toward pursuading Governor Bush or President Bush to intervene and take Terri into protective custody. And it appears that Governor Bush was ready to intervene but was stopped when local police indicated they would enforce the court's orders, even in the face of state police or the national guard. Apparently, a standoff between local and state powers - especially in light of the more radical protesters - was not something Jeb was willing to chance. It can not be long now until the decision will be out of human hands, anyway.
