Douthat Speaking Some Truth

Ross Douthat tackles Andrew Sullivan and John Derbyshire. Boy, politics does make for strange bedfellows.

K.J. Lopez also notes a reader's anecdotal experiences with Terri's case, suggesting that as more facts are available, people begin to sympathize with Michael Schiavo. I will say this much. If he had reached a point of emotional despair, so be it. Let him date other women, but if that be the case, then he must be willing to waive all rights to Terri and her estate. The problem to me isn't so much that he is now with another woman. The problem is that he is with another woman, fathering children, and yet he still insists that he should be allowed to legally conduct himself as Terri's guardian. This is shameful behavior.

He is a selfish man......How can anyone stop him and why doesn't our court system care and why isn't George W. Bush stopping it?

Look, I'm as opposed to this madness as the next guy, but W. has some laws to follow. What's he supposed to do, order in a Special Ops team?

Though I suppose Jeb could order in some state troopers or the Florida National Gaurd to stop this whole thing. That's all kinds of against the law, however, so I'm not sure what final ramifications of that would be. Impeachment? Maybe.
