The near-death penalty. FlaBlog is all over Jeb Bush's custom-designing legislation and pretending he's God in the Schiavo medical tragedy. See here and here:

My favorite quote -- Whether it's legal or not, I'm telling you, you should support this bill -- Rep. Don Davis, R-Jacksonville.

In the gallery applauding was professional antiabortion extremist Randall "wave of hatred" Terry, formerly of Operation Rescue, is now a "spokesman" for the Schiavo family.

[...]

She [Terri Schiavo] is not being "saved." She is being condemned by politicians and activists to a perpetual near-death twilight -- possibly against her stated wishes. Too many headline writers seem content to mouth the slogans of right-to-life activists.

Taking after his brother's extreme fondness for the death penalty, now Jeb is revealing his affection for the near-death penalty.

It doesn't matter to Jeb what Schiavo's husband or the courts think. Given that the agendas of the Bush brothers disregard laws (or even facts), "whether it's legal or not" has apparently become the national GOP tagline.
