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.

A friend of mine whose daughter was getting interested in Scientology did some reserach on it and his theory is that "Thetan" really means "Satan", pronounced Crowley style. With a lisp.

The Hemlock Society. I THINK their sole purpose is to promote death.....

Can someone else give a run-down on this joint?

I think that's different, medically AND morally speaking. From what I've read/heard/...the body itself shuts down when you're near death. The patient does not WANT to eat, food is not a priority like it is for an otherwise healthy person.

Even a disabled person.

Crowley and Hubbard were very close friends, according to all of L. Ron's writings. Makes perfect sense.

The Hemlock Society has printed at least one book with detailed instructions on how to commit suicide easily, without help. The last leaders of the organization that I heard of both committed suicide; several years ago in Great Britain, IIRC.

An entire organization dedicated to helping people commit suicide. Blech.

"[Nancy Cruzan, three days before her death from starvation] turned and looked at me and stared at me with a panicky look, sweating profusely, and the thought I had was, she was thinking, ‘Oh, here’s a policeman, he’ll help me.’ But we weren’t allowed to do that,”...

Hadn't thought about that. Hmm. The Greek letter theta sometimes is used to stand for "thanatos" i.e. death.

I did a google search on Crowley last year and was disgusted beyond belief. I wanted to check up on his credentials, Hubbard being his follower and all.

Google Hemlock society and you find a link to a page that says "We are pleased to announce that End-of-Life Choices and Compassion In Dying have unified. Our new organization is called Compassion & Choices." and the End-of-Life Choices site contains logos for the joined entities - among them is the "Hemlock Foundation for End Of Life Choices".

TWohlford...I can read the pain that you have over the loss of your uncle. I am VERY sorry for that loss.

In my NEVER so humble opinion...WE have made this hard to understand by our very actions as a society. In my grandparent's day...people just flat out got old, and died. Or, got old and sick and faded away in a hospital or at home.

Here's the tricky part....medical science IS a good thing, I believe it's God-given as is EVERYTHING good on this earth. BUT!!!....when we humans try to decide who dies how, WHEN a sick person is "dead" or not...THAT'S where all the mumble jumble comes in. And THAT'S how Hemlock, Scientology, etc., has gotten it's foot in the door.

A friend of mine actually joined the church for an investigative report for Spy Magazine years ago. He's some of what he found:

I am in sales and had to follow up on a lead for the Scientology building in Hollywood in the early '90's. I checked in at their security and they kept my driver's license, asked for my ss# as well. I was LED thru the building - a maze of cubicles- to the elevators and then taken up one or two floors then we got off and went thru another maze of cubicles to an elevator then up another couple of floors to the final destination for my meeting. I have to say if there was a fire I would not have known
A. where I was in the building
B. How to get out of the building
C. if they would even let me out of the building
Summary: I never went back, did not care if I lost the sale. Entirely too creepy and this was before I ever heard anything about them being a cult. I thought they were a church (sorry never really paid attention to them until then)!!!!
