TALLAHASSEE, Fl., March 25 /Christian Wire Service/ -- Governor Jeb Bush was scheduled to attend and participate in an outdoor Good Friday service at 12:30 pm, at Florida State University. According to event organizers, the Governor canceled at the last minute.
As part of this event Jeb Bush would have publicly read from a printed program that includes the following text entitled the Fifth Station of the Cross; "Lord Jesus, sometimes I don't want to do what is right or to help someone in need, but you want me to respond positively to the needs of others in my life. Help me to say 'yes' and be willing to give heroic assistance to all who are in need."
"It is clear that Governor Bush canceled his scheduled participation in this Stations of the Cross service out of fear and guilt of seeing supporters of Terri Schiavo pleading for her life. Our prayer for Governor Bush is the same prayer he would have prayed publicly on this Good Friday, had he kept his scheduled appointment. end of press release
FV SAYS: Don't flame me if you don't like the tone of this press release. There is a poll in the right sidebar at Free Republic. TAKE THE POLL ON JEB BUSH AND TERRI before the trolls go there and try to skew it.
Randall Terry tried to read this on Hannity's show but Sean cut him off.. cowardly to the end!
Wow, I hadn't heard that until now. Another instance that is not coincidental IMO. I wonder if Jeb wasn't so much scared of facing Terri's supporters as addressing Jesus with that Station. If that scared him away, I would have thought it would give him reason to reconsider his actions, or rather, lack thereof.
Wel, hopefully it gave him something to think about!
