 Judicial review and executive responsibility
If, as chief executive of Florida, Jeb Bush believes that starving Terri Schiavo to death is a violation of her right to life, as recognized in the Florida constitution (Article I, Section 2), he has the same obligation to defend constitutional right as he would in the lynching example.
If the legislature and the judiciary agree that the executive is abusing his power, the representatives of the people can charge the executive with the violation of law, impeaching and if necessary removing him from office for his actions, with no imputation of damage to the separation of powers.
The statute which transfers to Michael Schiavo the authority to make any decision that involves positive action to take Terri Schiavo's life, such as starving her to death, is on the face of it unconstitutional, since it transfers away from her that which cannot constitutionally be transferred by law to another.

The executive orders that he signed, the first one is directing the strengthening -- the strengthened management of the intelligence community; another on establishing the national counterterrorism center; the third on strengthening the sharing of terrorism information to protect Americans; and the fourth, establishing the President's board on safeguarding American civil liberties.
As you know, the President wanted to ensure that there was one person who had the authority to both develop the budget, present the budget, and advocate for the budget, and ensure that the community's priorities were translated into how we both develop and execute the budget.
In terms of budget consultative authority, I take it that this does not follow the model the 9/11 Commission laid down, which was to give either an expanded role to the DCI, or to the National Intelligence Director, to actually have control over the budget.

According to your complaint, the Authority routinely posts "generic" notices of executive sessions that do not reflect the content of the issues to be discussed nor what, in fact, they actually plan to discuss at a particular executive session.
The August 10, 2000 notice of executive session states that the Authority was meeting in executive session along with the date, time and location of the meeting.
Therefore, it is also my opinion the August 10, 2000 notice of executive session utilized by the Authority does not meet the requirements of the Open Door Law because it does not refer to the specific exception or exceptions allowing them to meet in executive session on that day.
