Felos Stunned by Hemlock Link

CALLER: Hi, Rush!

RUSH: Hi.

CALLER: I just wanted to know if you happened to catch George Felos on Fox & Friends this morning.

RUSH: Yes.

CALLER: What did you think?

RUSH: Well, there's a number of things that we have from Felos. One of the things -- what did you want to ask me about regarding Felos?

CALLER: Well, when they got to the last question I thought he looked, like, totally stunned. I think he thought that he did really, really good throughout the whole thing looking real calm.

RUSH: For people that don't know, what was the question?

CALLER: About the Hemlock Society?

RUSH: What was the question? I want you to tell me.

CALLER: Oh, I'm sorry. They had asked him -- they had heard a lot of talk on the radio -- or on talk radio, and they wanted to know if he really and truly belonged to the Hemlock Society.

RUSH: Yeah, and he said that he didn't.

CALLER: You didn't think that he looked stunned?

RUSH: Well, I think he looked stunned. I think he looked stunned, but he was not -- from everything I've been able to gather, he was not -- a member of the Hemlock Society.

CALLER: Oh, he wasn't?

RUSH: He was not. Here's what we know about the Hemlock Society and the Felos bunch, and this comes from Judi McLeod from the Toronto Free Press, it's a website, and we had the story yesterday. "Dr. Ronald Cranford, handpicked by Michael Schiavo to examine Terri and on whose say-so Terri was categorized in 'persistent vegetative state.' Cranford is the MD who officially ordered Terri’s feeding tube removed on March 18.... He was 1992’s featured speaker for the pro-euthanasia Hemlock Society, which was renamed The Choice in Dying Society," but not Felos. However, they're all connected because all these people are -- well, except for one, all of them are -- board members of the hospice in Pinellas Park. But Felos himself was not a member of the Hemlock Society. We have the sound bite. I think he was stunned not by the question about his membership but just the whole idea that it had been discovered that everybody involved in this hospice, that all the board members have and Felos does, too -- do have connections to people who are part of the Hemlock Society. It was a pro-euthanasia group. The question from Steve Doocy was, "Talk radio has been buzzing about your connection to the Hemlock Society. Could you just make that clear for us?"

FELOS: I don't know what they're... Uhhh, I don't know what they're talking about. I've -- I've -- I've spoken, uhhh, I've spoken before the Hemlock, uh, Society and -- but I'm -- I'm -- I'm not a member. Ummm, I don't serve, uh, in that organization, so I -- I -- don't know what they're talking about.

RUSH: I think he was a little stunned that the whole concept of the Hemlock Society was brought up here. I think this is something they thought was pretty much unknown because the mainstream press wasn't talking about it, the mainstream press is not talking about these connections.

Interesting reading at the link provided, thank you for posting it.

My oldest sister, her husband, and her four daughters are all Scientologists. She explained her niacin/steam bath experience to me 20 years ago. Recalling it still gives me the creeps. Her oldest daughter was married and had an affair. The cult looked unfavorably on this behavior. In order to repair her relationship with the "church" she had to pay them $10,000. I understand that my sister has given them a small fortune over the years.

I've missed the Scientology connection to the Terri Schaivo case. Could you elaborate please?

That is the great thing about G_d... He can handle the big questions, and is willing, (if you are patient enough!) to give the answers.

Just a little humor, folks.

On his show, Rush is always saying “Hi! Hire you?”
(“Hi! How are you?” A little Southern humor, haha!) .....

FELOS: .......I've spoken, uhhh, I've spoken before the Hemlock, uh, Society.......

That's enough for me. Whether he's innocent or not, he's connected if he was invited to make a presentation before the group.

I wish every Terri thread didn't have one of those "funny" ads to support FreeRepublic. I find it offensive. Many of us are still grieving over Terri's murder. I guess they are over on the Pope threads, too. I wonder if Catholics are offended?

I pray that George Felos will be exposed and ruined.

Actually, it against the constitution of our nation.

Is this true?

Is this what john travolta and tom cruise are into? Greta van susteran? OH MY GOSH!

From a previous post of mine:

"Hubbard considered Aleister Crowley (sp?) his mentor. Crowley was a homosexual pedoophile Satan worshipping black magic practicing warlock (male witch). I'm not kidding."

Do a google search if you want to be disgusted. I may not have the spelling of his name right.

Aleister Crowley. (sp?)

If he's spoken before the Hemlock society then he had to understand the reference.

I'm Catholic and I'm not offended. FR just happens to have a fundraiser going on so we can come here and tell everyone what we think about everything under the sun. Don't let it bug you. (Or just donate so it will end sooner!)

I've read that whole site. It cracks me up. They tried to get it removed a year or two ago. The truth hurts.

There are two Hemlocks.

The evergreen tree, Tsuga canadensis, is not poisonous
The small plant, genus Cicuta, several species, is. Same plant family as carrots and queen anne's lace.

"I pray that George Felos will be exposed and ruined."

In the current 'anything goes' market, controversy almost always brings profit for those willing to sell their stories. It would most likely take an omnibus amendment to not only nail Felos, but also others like Janet Jackson, Madonna, the Clintons, etc. I've actually been giving an omnibus amendment some thought. It would take a LOT of work, however.
