Crist worries conservatives
Tribune ^ | 11 August 2006 | Joe Follick

Posted on 08/11/2006 11:24:18 PM PDT by davidosborne

TALLAHASSEE -- Republican Tom Gallagher is betting his political life on an appeal to Christian and social conservatives. And at least one of his supporters in those groups say their own future is at stake in Gallagher's quest to be governor.

Gallagher has earned the endorsement of Florida Right to Life, as well as vocal support of most social conservative leaders in the state. His goal: Win the hearts of Republicans most likely to get out and vote on Sept. 5.

If the STATE is forced into a life/death decision like this the STATE should err on the side of life... this was a tragic case where the true desires of the "victim" are unknown..... IMHO this case should have NEVER come to court in the first place...

One of my favorite shows and Rod Serling was one of my favorite scifi writers.

If I'm not mistaken, he also wrote several episodes of the old, (Capt. Kirk) Star Trek series.

To me he was the Alfred Hitchcock of science fiction.

Once again,there is no way that I could ever vote for this man Crist. Not that he is responsible for Terri's death directly, that award goes to her murderous husband, but Crist could have done something to try and protect her. He did not. And then he lauded those Judicial thugs that did put the seal on her demise. I will never, ever forget this. Would that they all burn in hell.

I hope Crist loses and loses big.

I would even venture to say that disallowing one's spouse to honor their wish in relation to following local state and federal laws in that the state is the only one to decide a matter such is that is very liberal in its thinking.

And allowing a husband to exercise his wish to kill his wife is conservative?

Or are you aware of some credible evidence that Terri wished to be fatally dehydrated? I've read the testimony of the Schiavos; it is not credible regardless of what Judge Greer says. None of Michael's supporters seem able to offer any other evidence. Maybe you have some?

Look Julie, not everyone had the opportunity to meet Charlie like your firm did. By posting these little fact about him will only help Floridians make the right choice. We all didn't just fall of the turnip wagon down here. Many of us are college educated tax payers like yourself. GEEZ! After all, we elected Jeb and we can do better. The choices this year aren't great but we'll deal with it!

Please don't be so quick to write off Florida voters wherever you're from.

Tom Gallagher has a normal life. He has real property and does his own checkbook. Crist's daddy takes care of his finances and Dr. Crist must be doing a horrible job for 50 year old Peter Pan son by handling his finances, because Crist said he "was the poorest candidate in the race." (wouldn't be bragging about how poor your are, Charlie Crist with all the Sembler donations. Truth be told, Crist luvs special interest money and is eager to pander to them in return.)

TOM GALLAGHER PING LIST CONTACT "davidosborne". Tom Gallagher is fighting for the soul of the republican party. Charlie Crist is a RINO. If you like liberals, vote for Crist.

Mr. Jazzy, I luv your screen name.

Fox & Friends Sunday covered the Boot Camp Death of Martin Anderson who was beaten until unconscious by Sheriff Deputies at a boot camp in Panama City, Fla. The deputies held their hand over Martin's mouth and then he couldn't breathe. Then they shoved an ammonia pellet in his nose. Martin had no airways. He suffocated to death.

Thus far, the medical examiner has been suspended for his bogus autopsy but the nurse who watched the 14 year old get beaten and then suffocated and the deputies have not been charged. They waited twenty minutes to call an ambulance but it was already too late. Martin Anderson was dead.

To keep Crist from betting his hands dirty on the boot camp death, Jeb assigned the matter to Bernie McCabe over in Pinellas County. Bernie McCabe is the fixer.

McCabe is doing Charlie Crist's job because Crist is too busy campaigning and he is inept in real police work especially when the nurse and the deputy are state employees and Crist WILL NEVER STEP ON ANY TOES. He's a weak panderer. Martin Anderson died on January 6, 2006. Terri Schiavo died on March 31, 2005. Those are two Crist coverups right there. It will only get worse.

I want someone with experience who is decisive like Tom Gallagher. Gallagher is his own man and he's going to protect Floridians, not activist judges or state employees who flaunt the law.

I was as close to being in that room as was humanly possible, roxybear. State sponsored homicide is not something any state in these United States should aspire to.

George Felos chose Florida to start his social revolution of forced exits. If you ck out his book at www.amazon.com, you will see that this person who wrote the orders that Judge Greer has some bizarre ideas about Jews and their extermination, about telepathy and about religion. Bizarre is a nice way to put it.

This XXXman launched Florida's death care system. They are against natural death. They'd rather do it themselves.

FLORIDA IS THE STARVATION STATE. (despicable)

Ever heard of sarcasm? The testerone joke went right over your head.

There's going to be another debate between Gallagher and Crist. I am certain that Gallagher will win this second one too. Crist is perplexed if he gets a question that he's not programmed to answer.

Exhibit a. Nurse Carla paybacks re: her nursing license. So far, she still has her license but they were going to yank it because she took care of Terri and did an affidavit for Jeb Bush.

Exhibit b. bear person, I don't care about me or if I'm important or not. They would like us to quit telling the truth.

Pinellas County is corrupt. There are cults here, there are sleeper cells here, there are globalists here, there are corrupt judges here, the sheriff's dept., the state attorney, the elections supervisor.

If you don't live here, you are clueless about Pinellas County. Google Pinellas County and corruption if you dare.

Google Lisa MacPherson and see what happened to her in Pinellas County.

Unicorn, trolls are like polls that call on the weekend when nobody's home so they basically poll people who are too boring or broke to go anywhere.

You keep talking around me. You're bumping this important thread about Conservatives Worrying about Crist.

Darn straight we are. He's a child who wants another social promotion.

Supercat, I haven't even seen one for Crist poster say anything in defense of their candidate. They don't know him very well which proves my point. They are voting for an image, a hologram. Crist is artificial and Floridians deserve better.

Do you know there are no photos of Charlie Crist with someone in a wheelchair? I found one of him with a man who had a cane.

Crist doesn't care about all Floridians. He only cares about 1. himself 2. special interests 3. His AARP membership and his partnership with the AARP in the FLAG Office. I didn't vote for Crist to partner with the AARP. Harry Belafonte, AARP's person of the year said in Venezuela while visiting Hugo Chavez that President Bush was the world's worst terrorist." Crist didn't quit the AARP. They've infiltrated Florida govt.

I want this b.s. to stop, not get worse!

Cristi-critters have nothing positive to say about their candidate. They cannot defend why conservatives are worried about Crist. They don't even know their guy. Ignorance must be bliss.
