Jeb Bush bailed out by honest judiciary. Too bad.

This is the best result that ol' Jebbie could've hoped for. He got to kiss some fundamentalist ass, doesn't have to face the embarrassment of keeping up the fight, and keeps right-wing fanatics angry at the courts for doing their job. He must have been laughing with glee as he wrote his response.

Florida's state attorney said there was no evidence Terri Schiavo's collapse 15 years ago involved criminal activity, and Gov. Jeb Bush on Thursday declared an end to the state's inquiry.

Bush had asked State Attorney Bernie McCabe to investigate Schiavo's case after her autopsy last month. He said he now considers the state's involvement with the matter finished.

"Based on your conclusions, I will follow your recommendation that the inquiry by the state be closed," Bush said in a two-sentence letter.
