I can't speak for everyone, but I thought that it should be decided by the county/state court who's jurisdiction it was in. I know nothing about power-of-attorney disputes, and way less about the particulars of this case than you seem to. But I know the president shouldn't be signing legislation aimed at a single power-of-attorney dispute that happens to be a national controversy for some dumb reason.
- tsotha 13y agoOh, well, if you're talking about the politics side I agree with you. It was a Florida case and the federal government should never have been involved.
- jbooth 13y agoBut they were involved, and the reasons for that were entirely political. Those congressmen and President Bush didn't give a crap about the dispute at hand, and they didn't have deep feelings about the jurisprudence. It was entirely about 'right to life'. You flip the script and they'd have been supporting the husband and slandering the parents.
- tsotha 13y agoYou're probably making some unwarranted assumptions here. I think George Bush did a lot of things because he felt they were the right thing to do even though they hurt him politically. Everybody says that's what they want in a politician, but nobody really wants that.
