God can judge his soul. I'll judge his bones.
He also firmly supports Michael Jackson. How do you reconcile those two issues?
The two issues have NOTHING to do with each other. He's not outside the hospice or lobbying FL's Black Congressional Caucus about MJ. I don't care if he's doing it for publicity (though to his credit he did speak out on this case quite some time ago and avoided joining the circus until the parents asked him to come). Heck, the more publicity he can garner the better. The press adores him. They'll salivate all over each other to quote him word for word. They MIGHT even do a story or two sympathetic to Terri's plight. God has chosen many people throughout history who were not pillars of society to get his message out. The leftist press won't listen to ANYONE on the right so the only message getting out is that of the death cult. Jesse says jump, they do it with bells on...he's a HERO to them...thus in this case he's the perfect spokesman to get the TRUTH out about what's being done to Terri into the mainstream. Let him grandstand, it may be the one thing that turns the tide for Terri.

You mean "Day late & dollar short" Jackson?
When someone's right, the deserve to be supported."
Yeah, Jackson's "right" the way Josef Stalin was "right" when he declared war on Japan in August of 1945 just after we dropped the second of two A-Bombs.
Ask yourself: WHEN has Jesse Jackson ever done anything in the name of "principle"??
How in the world can Hannity, you, and whomever confuse "doing-the-right-thing" with "opportunism"?
Great, let's ALL retrospectively laud Adolf Hitler for his grand committment to physical fitness: "Thank you Uncle Adolf for caring about our bodies..."
If Jesse Jackson is so simply able to con you people, then utter these words right now: President Hitlery Rodman Clinton.
It's a done deal.
Puh-leeze.
No Freeper that I know is being conned. What is is , is rear guard action as defeat (Terri dies)is imminent; and now we have a reinforcement charging into the battle.
Think about youself, pinned down, out of ammo and surrounded by the enemy. Suddenly, from the left, a fighting squadron arrives, and begin to beat back the people who are trying to overrun your position, and kill you. Do you check their bona fides?
No, you thank them and thank God that help arrived.
Yes, indeed this whole situation is a misery alright... for poor Terri and her family.
You overreach and it ruins your line of argument.
AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!!
Thank you and amen.
So someone says that Hannity reported Jackson got two people to flip their votes.
12 days ago it would have mattered. How does it matter now? The poor woman and family are already destroyed.
What happened to Liberator?
I'm sorry but I smell only politics here with Jackson all of a sudden getting motivated at this point in time.
Terri may not be dead, but she is at death's door and I feel too late.
I'm not happy in saying it.
We were also glad to see the French once upon a time, even if they were a bit late.
Your post was excellent, as they usually are.
Once in a lifetime occurrence, IMO.
No Sale, don-o...
IF Jesse Jackson (of ALL people) is considered the calvary, then I've NEVER seen such delusional desperation.
And why did he wait until Schiavo's Death watch to grandstand?
Because he's a charlatan.
All that's left at this point at this uselessly late juncture is to turn off the lights.
Show's over. Even for Jackson.
called that number and entered J-A-C-K-S-O-N for option 2, to 'enter by name' and the answer came back as 'too many names match that spelling'! ha!! talk about nepotism!! ;-)
Anyway, I did it again with one more letter (J) and got a Jesalyn or something like that ... at this hour all I could do was leave a message and asked her to forward it.
Told them that I have agreed with nothing that Mr Jackson has done over the years but now I am calling to thank him from the bottom of my heart for what he is doing for Terri Schiavo, a woman that has every right to live that we do. I applaud his efforts at the Florida Legislature and pray that he is successful.
If Jesse's work saves her life....what you gonna do?
With ALL due respect, Donny -- Do NOT confuse Jesse Jackson with Jesus Christ.
If this showboating SOB was ever going to make ANY impact, it was last week.
That he can trot out his dog and pony show now, and fools bright people like you is disturbing.
