The emergency session in DC coincided with the planning of the rescue but the rescue was cancelled BEFORE Judge Whittemore's defiance of congress. (Tom Delay took note after Terri died, but he shut up after he met with the president in Texas.)
After J. Whittemore was through with his deal with the devil, Jeb Bush telegraphed to Judge Greer through the radio and tv that he was "going in to save Terri no matter what J. Greer ordered." J. Greer then increased the troop strength at Hospice Woodside, we were labeled insurgents and the streets around Hospice had roadblocks. It was all theatre. J. Greer is a Clear Channel shareholder so he could call the local radio station and control the airwaves while also controlling all law enforcement and pretending to being in a showdown with Jeb's FDLE. All theatre.
The day after Jeb said he was going in no matter what, he went on Greer's and his brother's airwaves and said "there is nothing I can do." And that's exactly what he did. Nothing.
My 897. Any similar recollections as those two weeks played out? The only other detail was that FDLE were on their way the week prior and they did a U-turn. That is also a fact. I think that was on a Wednesday.
Have you taken the initiate to contact the media yourself? If not, why not?
I don't listen to Glenn Beck any more either. As a Clear Channel employee, he didn't attack Judge Greer. He picked on Michael Schiavo because he wasn't an employee of Michael Schiavo. He said he couldn't do his show from the vigil because he would attract too much attention. Or, would he have been fired???
Your #897
That dark day went down as you described it. You were labeled an insurgent as was I, both shown on tv as such and we were treated as such. It was a stage set for the media. They tried desperately to try to get us angry and to riot or something and we did not.
They were very frustrated at times because we persisted in being peaceful. Hard to portray us as violent when we are saying the Rosary. You may even remember the phalanx of cops who did a "power walk," side by side up the street as if it were a parade. It looked like a scene from a grade B movie.
