24. Basically Jebthro wants to know why Michael Schiavo didn't check his clock
...for the exact time of day before trying to revive his unconscious wife, and then why he didn't call 9-11 before (most likely) trying to revive her.

Or in other words, more pathetically stupid bullshit that the mediawhores will love to play up so they don't have to deal with the REAL CRIMES being committed (and not by Michael Schiavo)

2. Other
He is postioning himself as a major right wing extremist in order to appeal to republicans as a contender for election 2008. He wants to get the pro-life nut case vote.

11. Shooting Himself in the Foot
It seems to me that most of America thought the Government's involvement with the Schaivo case was a mistake. Could he be as big a moron as his brother? This makes no sense.

3. His Mom told him to do it
The world's on the edge of spanking her eldest, so Jeb, the throwaway, has to make noise and take the heat away from Fuckface.

Other--
Everthing on the last choice up to the word "and".

Substitute:
"...and he's too stupid to realize that the whole Terri Schiavo circus repelled more people than it inspired."

4. As usual, blivet is in trouble so the family all comes out and starts
circling the wagons around the idiot. Pretty soon we'll all be in danger of being overwhelmed with wrinkles when Babs and Poppy hobble out of whatever place their evil old asses reside when they're not inflicting themselves on the innocent public.

6. He is fulfilling his part of a deal he made with Randall Terry, he
does this and Terry doesn't reassign someone from an abortion doctor to him.

Pretty weak trick Rove pulled from the bottom of his hat.

17. I was impressed that ABC, NBC gave very little time to this story
CBS gave it too much time though.

16. I have no idea,
but I'd love to know. Every theory you list (and I can't come up with any new ones) doesn't quite make sense to me.

18. God, what a toss up
I just couldn't decide. I think he is brain-washed into thinking it's the right thing to do. Not because he believes in the sanctity of life being that sacred and that God should make the life and death decisions...but that's what he believes the religious right lobbies their campaign war chests with. Sorry about the awkward run on sentence, but some things are just hard to put.

21. Maybe because Michael Schiavo is a Democrat
That's enough to set most republcans off. Most of them are dredging up old dirt and making a mountain of every mole hill. Jeb is making a complete fool of himself. I wonder why he doesn't try to do something more constructive. Talk about abuse of power!

22. I had to vote 'other'
The copse of the Schindler daughter hasn't been fully consumed. There's still some good pickings for the blood lust set. He's just the waiter with the job of setting up the buffet.

25. Dreams of '08
If polls are to be believed and Giuliani and McCain are leading the Repug pack for the nomination now the far right has no real representative. I don't like either McCain or Giuliani but Jeb and Frist and Santorum and whoever else can outflank them on the right which is what one has to do to win that primary.

But before we even worry about that let's beat Santorum next year.

27. I think it's all about the DSM
And appealing to the fundie base. He couldn't do anything to "Save" Mrs. Schavio so he has to do something. Plus, he has to take care of little bro.
