Joel, Jeb, and Judges.

I've never read Joel Osteen's "Your Best Life Now" (although I'm a little skeptical of it anyway), but "Rich" at WorldMagBlog has, and gives his  opinion

Is Jeb holding out on us?  And on Terri? Ann Coulter thinks so.  Michael Savage too, thinks the Bush brothers should order state and federal guards to go in and take custody of Schiavo.  But Rush Limbaugh thinks that is going too far, and will create another Waco or Elian Gonzales fiasco.  He also thinks Jeb Bush would prefer to stay on the right side of the law. 
One thing's for sure:  This is not just some freak case that will never happen again.  Our nation's values have undergone a steady evolution for the worse over the last several decades, and Terri Schiavo just happens to be the unfortunate one to bring another moral turning point into the limelight.  Judge Greer isn't isn't the only judge who would have ordered Schiavo's death.  The land is saturated with 'em.  And have you ever noticed those little lines on your local ballot, "Should the County retain Judge Smith"?

Common, everyday citizens gave birth to the generation we live in today.  And common citizens can start fighting back.  Every judge was educated by someone else, you know; let's starting raising some morally proficient judges of our own.

I wrote an essay on euthanasia a couple years ago, and am seriously wondering if I should post it.
