Law Bush signed as Texas governor prompts cries of hypocrisy

"It appears that President Bush felt, as governor, that there was a point which, when doctors felt there was no further hope for the patient, that it is appropriate for an end-of-life decision to be made, even over the objection of family members," Wasserman Schultz said. "There is an obvious conflict here between the president's feelings on this matter now as compared to when he was governor of Texas."

Yep...

What's shameful here is that BushCo spends more time pandering to the ideological right wing than helping out seniors in this country. Disability Rights Groups, who also believe that the tube should not have been removed from Terri Schiavo, are concerned that Congressional and Senatorial Repubs are using this more for political gain, than out of actual concern for Schiavo's plight. Even further, civil libertarians emphasize that the government had and still has no right to get involved here, which with most people agree.

Wow, 3 fronts. BushCo's slight of hand on the 2 year anniversary of the Iraq invasion is not fooling anyone. It may work for the abstract "War of Terror," but not real issues.
