It appears you have to have a subscription to listen to Glen's live broadcast thru his website.

You can listen free if you go to the 970 FM website. http://www.970wfla.com/main.html?voting=no Scroll down on the left hand side to where it says listen live.

There's also a poll on whether you favor socialized medicine here in the U.S.

Thank you for posting the 'good' link to listen online. It took me a few more minutes to connect to the show, until I found the streaming media link on the lower right of the page, not the one at the top. But, I never got to hear Rus!

"It's a six women one man board - persecuting a woman ( Rus Cooper-Dowda ) for standing up for a woman - our own Terri Schiavo-Schindler. What's wrong with this picture!?!?!?!?!

You failed to address the irony I presented, sport. It should have been as clear as a fly on your nose.

Corruption is as corruption does. The sex of the beast matters not. Where is the heart of the attack on our national heritage? It's coming from whacked out hate filled women organizations hell-bent on destroying the primary pillar supporting our country - the family.

The Schindler family is a prime example. So much is dependent upon the 'system' defeating them. They represent the characteristics government isn't capable of duplicating. Control of all that takes place within the family ( religion, history, national heritage, language and culture ) is viewed as a threat until it is finally controlled by government - contrary to scripture and the Fourth of His Ten Commandments.

Back when men were pressured to pass the Fourteenth Amendment - the so-called 'suffrage' argument held that women - unlike men - were above the fray; that by the nature of the unique characteristics of their sex alone, women would bring to the table a gift men, who by virtue of an incomplete DNA could not hope to appreciate.

It was inferred that the previous 150 years of governance was immeasurably flawed. Men were, in any case, little more than well groomed Neanderthals - beasts having a limited genetic structure relegating the use of power to that of crushing any real or perceived threat with any weapon at their disposal.

But alas, comes now the Pinellas County School Board - a public body totally controlled by women - smashing the myth prolonged in the extremist argument that women are the illustrious retainers of an embedded refinement of knowingness. For here in the seat of public power controlled in total by women we have found an exhibition of cruelty greater in scope and intent than any male dominated public body of like kind.

For one and all to take notice, this coven of authority decided to publicly slice and dice two women in one act of depravity.

One victim is their psychological slave. She's in a 'probationary' teacher status. Termination need not be explained during this time. They own her. Completely, it would seem.

Lo, this lowly wretch dared challenge the powerful of Florida through her Creator derived freedom of speech. She wasn't informed that her Creator derived freedoms were suspended when she became a 'probationary' teacher; that would have taken away from the push/pull mind play perfected by those embedded with a refined knowingness.

Every single seat of power in Florida the Schindler family has had to face is controlled by men. Perhaps this school teacher thought there might be some protection through the overwhelming 6/7 domination of women on her school board. Better yet, perhaps she was raised with the knowledge of her Creator given freedoms; that her duty as a Citizen demanded she rise and give notice and alarm of oppressive government dictates to the Citizens of Florida. Perhaps it was her belief that so informed, Citizens would stand and do their duty to right a grievous, and physically torturous wrong inflicted on a defenseless woman. A woman who has done no wrong; yet the 'system' placed her in a in a setting where she's been stripped of her freedoms and is in a lock-down designed to generate the worst of psychological traumas conceived by evil mind of man.

Did this school teacher have a duty to stand, and as the town crier of old, inform her fellow Citizens of this great wrong? She met her obligation as a Citizen, and for this she is suffering the status of persona non grata' within the profession she sought as a career goal.

How then have these women of power proven themselves worthy of the argument put forth in support of the passage of the 14th Amendment? Has their two handed iron fisted attack on two women exceeded the ruthlessness of that exhibited by like men? Has there been an abandonment of the lie of the 14th, revealing a face so hideous it would by comparison make Dorian Gray handsome?

Why have these six women abandoned even the slightest pretense of the argument made to gain passage of what has become America's greatest threat - the 14th Amendment?

Are women in reality merely knuckle dragging make-overs using Victoria's Secret weapons to seize power? Will their tactics successfully seize total control of the club from the hand of mankind?

Men of power created the 'system' that is intent on murdering Terri Schiavo Schindler. Doesn't rescuing her from the clutches of a man made torture enhance the argument for even greater control of power for women? Why have those with a refined knowingness overlooked this fundamental strategy?

As a public body, these women chose not to rise on behalf of a woman who has been persecuted by her husband and every single male dominated seat of power in the State of Death 'r Us.

It is women who are putting the screws to two of their own. They're cutting the throat of the one who can speak in defense of the one who can not.

In retrospect, the 14th Amendment seems to have merely expanded the number of degenerates who may sit at the table of power, with the newest members taking from their caldron all manner of deceit to achieve undisputed control equal to that exhibited by the Pinellas County School Board.

Roy T Sniffen is the husband of the flake who agonized over being loyal to the US Constitution and the Florida Constitution. They both hate Jeb Bush and all Republicans, they adore abortion and liberalism. They use Terri to gain recognition for themselves. Roy T Sniffen's wife is Cooper-Dowda.

You need to wise up. Not one shred of proof supporting the "waking up" story.

To your post #56: Where is the cowardly ACLU on this one?

Well, seeing as it was founded by commies, we can't expect it to be for truth, justice and the American way. It's just another way to subvert our country to the commie way.

(response to your post 66) Where does it say who her husband is? I come late to this discussion, but have you established Sniffen is her husband? Someone told me he wishes to divorce her over this. Do you know them?

*I hope she sues...*

Count on it. She's a deadbeat professional litigant. US Court in California, she recently sued the AC Transit and Oakland School District. Settled out of court each time, never took her chances with the jury. She has been suing people for a living since at least 1995. The ADA laws have been very good to her. And when things get tight, she files bankruptcy and leaves thousands in unpaid debts. Litigious, deadbeat, liberal preacher. No doubt trying to con her way into a profitable position using Terri Schiavo.



Here is a list of her most recent unsatisfied creditors. From US Bankruptcy Court records. You gotta be a member of the PACER court document system, so don't ask for a link.

Mort Saul, an immensely creative political satirist of the late fifties and sixties, once commented he need only read the daily newspaper to gain material for his appearances. Here the actions of the Pinellas County School Board are self evident. I merely focused on the obvious. Thank you for your kind thought nonetheless.

The experiment of sharing power equally with women has been shown to merely display the same corrupted features common to men who thirst for the key to this intangible treasure trove.

Men and women seeking power share a common fault - arrogance - along with fear of any authority/structure independent of their social domination.

In a very real sense we are at a greater risk having approved the 14th Amendment, as we have more than doubled the potential for the overthrow of our bedrock social institutions responsible for the building the most successful nation on earth. A nation which recognizes the Creator's sacred relationship with it's Citizens. Not another nation on Earth respects its citizens in a like fashion.

So good to know you have the ability to dredge up public records, while being likewise aware that what goes round comes round ( for every action there is an opposite and equal reaction -- Newton's Third Law of Motion ).

Paul was a bounty hunter of Christians in his day. Imagine how wired the internet would have been had it existed at that time. Paul's witnessing would have been doubted - likely rejected by otherwise good Christians. Do you suppose The Savior had a lesson for us in his befriending the sinners of His day. Some say Mary Magdalene was known to many men of her day, yet she was permitted the incredible honor of washing His feet. Should He forgive your transgressions, if you are unable to forgive others for their misdeeds?

Consider this the next time you decide to stone someone for the sins of their past.

Something about THAT WOMAN really smelled funny.

We have to expect these vultures to move in and attempt to divert the energies of any group of activists that is available.

Thank you for the research.

Before everyone starts flaming me, I think some delving needs to be done.

I am not passing judgement on Rus, but something doesn't add up. Let's all do the homework.

Those of you who know her can get her Doctor's names, maybe or some other witness to the story.

Terri's case has lots of witnesses.

Many people here are avid public supporters of Terri Schavo. To remain credible, they should not voice public support for a con artist.

.....and they roared, "Crucify Him".

Is it possible for yesterday's sinner to be today's saint?

If it is learned she wasn't interviewed; that the onus of the label 'probationary' does not allow an employer to capriciously terminate an employee without detailing the reason(s) for the termination; that school administrator back-stabbing did not create a shut-down of normal communication between Ms. Cooper-Dowda and the school staff ; that Ms. Cooper-Dowda's media comments did not shame the backsliding Christians of Pinellas County for failing to recognize and stand against the barbarism being played out in their own county - as she rightly did - then you are right.

HOWEVER, the story doesn't carry Ms. Cooper-Dowda's byline, and last I heard a reporter verifies facts before a news story is written.

I wrote to you about two saintly examples of sinner repentance. You respond that my reliance upon the facts presented in the story is inappropriate - because you infer the past governs the present; that the actions of Ms. Cooper-Dowda should be suspect, because her past is wrought with devious activities, say you. You choose to support the unforgiving glass house argument 'once a liar, always a liar' .

I fear you will one day sit on a jury, and bigotry - not facts - will dominate the panel's decision process .

The facts. She was fired because she is not a suitable teacher. Her dismissal is based on her job performance.

Everything else is a distraction including your talk of "saints".
