Jeb Bush Defends Terri Schiavo Actions, Flaunts Religious Right Record In Focus On The Family Interview
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Monday, 4/13/2015 4:00 pm
In an interview with the powerful Religious Right group Focus on the Family today, Jeb Bush touted his anti-choice credentials and boasted of his role in the controversial Terri Schiavo case when he was governor of Florida.
Bush told Jim Daly, the president of Focus and host of its daily radio program, that he was proud of his role in approving a number of anti-choice policies, including targeted regulation of abortion providers (TRAP) laws designed to shut down family planning clinics and state funding for crisis pregnancy centers, which are notorious for peddling misinformation to women in hopes of dissuading them from seeking abortions.
Were the only state, I believe, to have funded with state monies crisis pregnancy centers to provide counselors so that these not-for-profits that in many cases arent as well funded as many others could act on their mission, which to provide broader support, but the actual counseling was done, paid for by the state, he said. It was a godsend for these crisis pregnancy centers and a lot of babies lives were saved.
Terri Schiavo is another example of this, he said, referring to his efforts to intervene to stop the removal of a feeding tube of a Florida women who had been in a persistent vegetative state for 15 years, over the objections of the womans husband.
He insisted that he didnt go beyond my authority in the Schiavo case, although Schiavos husband may beg to differ.
