Gov. Jeb Bush said he was all but out of options for helping the couple.
``[My powers] are not as expansive as people would want them to be. I understand they are acting on their heart, and I fully appreciate their sentiments and the emotions that go with this,'' Bush told the Capitol News Service. ``I've consistently said that I can't go beyond what my powers are.''
The day's events were capped with an evening hearing in downtown Tampa, where police cordoned off an area around the federal courthouse and brought in a bomb squad when a suspicious package was discovered outside.
Bomb squad officers eventually exploded the package, and no one was injured.

SEMINOLE, Fla. Police in Florida have arrested a man they say tried to rob a gun store so he could rescue brain-damaged Terri Schiavo (SHY'-voh).
Police say the man entered the store yesterday with a box cutter intending to steal a gun so he could "take some action and rescue Terri Schiavo."
They say he had driven down from Illinois Wednesday and had visited the hospice that's been caring for Schiavo.
The owner of the gun store says the man broke the glass on a couple of display cases and told him, "If I wasn't on Terri's side then I wasn't on God's side, either."

Schiavo case results in threats, prompting calls for calm

New York Daily News
TAMPA, Fla. - (KRT) - As Terri Schiavo weakens and legal options peter out, tension here is intensifying.
Some pro-life activists are making ugly threats, making up "Wanted" posters for lawmakers and handing out the home addresses of judges who rejected legal appeals to keep Schiavo alive.
"I am afraid," said state Sen. Frederica Wilson, D-Miami, who has received numerous death threats by phone and mail because she voted against a measure to reinsert Schiavo's feeding tube. "We're talking about the sanctity of life, and (they're) threatening my life."
The nine Republican lawmakers who voted against the measure showed up on anonymous "Wanted" posters that appeared in the state capitol in Tallahassee. State Sen. Nancy Argenziano said one of the "un-Christian" voice mails she's received wished stomach cancer on her.
