Jessie Jackson Going Schiavo Hospice At Family's Invitation! (TV camera = Jessie Jackson)
WFTV - Orlando | Live shot from Pinellas Park

Posted on 03/28/2005 8:08:43 PM PST by MindBender26

Steve Barrett reporting that "The Reverend Jessie Jackson has accepted the family's invitation to join the demonstrators outside the hospice where Terri is dying."

1. Is this turning into way too much of a circus?

2. Want to bet the race-baiting poverty pimp invited himself?

I'm fine with Action Jackson going in. Personally, I'd rather have Mr. T go in.

Jesse thinks Terri's tube should be reinserted. So do Ralph Nader and Joe Lieberman, and (I think) Tom Harkin.

Knowing the partisan idiocy that runs rampant at FR, I'm sure this fact has just made about 30% of the board say "Pull the plug on Terri!"

I'm trying to figure out how Jackson is going to blame this on "whitey".

Lanny Davis is also against Terri starving/thirsting to death. And I think David Boies stated that he had problems with how the legal aspects were handled.

    Well... I think all of our 'Republican' 'Conservative' officials have behaved completely ridiculous during this whole fiasco. Here is my opinion http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1366225/posts?page=108#108 Anyway, it is a fitting ending and I am glad to see it and I hope that it sends a message to all those who supported this circus. FYI, Here is a picture of Jesse Jackson marching with N.O.W. (National Organization of Women, a liberal feminist group) members against Welfare Reform, along with the results of the reforms they opposed. State Reform took effect around 1992-1994 and the National Bill was passed in 1996. The Republicans swept the house in 1994 promising a ‘Contract with America’. People are the same the world over. It is the political structure and governmental interference that make all the difference. Get Government out of people’s lives and they will succeed. To believe people cannot succeed without government ‘help’ is to subscribe to what President Bush calls, ‘the soft bigotry of low expectations’. The reason they aren’t succeeding is BECAUSE of the government help, which only serves to subsidize poverty and single motherhood! For some reason, saying these things and passing bills that help millions of people out of poverty is said by the left to be ‘cruel’, ‘hardnosed’ and ‘racist’. Maybe we should work on further improving these important things that make a REAL difference in people's lives instead of attempting to adjudicate from the keyboard on a he said she said family dispute

Mr. T, Laurence Tureaud (Tero) is very ill with cancer. Contrary to the TV image, he is a good, Christian man.

I wouldn't be so quick to lump Terry in with those others. Think about it.

Jesse is looking for face time.

Now that's going to be an interesting morning; it would be big fun to watch Jesse Jackson, Larry Klayman, Randall Terry, and Alan Keyes all trying to be the first one to the microphone bank.

If anyone can raise holy cain, it is Jesse. Why not? As for making it a circus -- It already WAS a circus... as in Roman circus, where the innocent were fed to the lions.

You're not lumping Randall Terry in with JEsse Jackson and Larry Klayman? None of them ever met a camera they didn't love and are self serving and always hurt any movement they support. Every time.

I just wonder how many otherwise legitimate causes are absolutely ruined by protesting way over the top for entirely too long, AND THEN letting people like Wendell Terry and Jesse Jackson be seen amongst your "support group" so to speak...

In every encounter a "sale" is made, either one way or the other. It is seldom wise to talk beyond the sale and it is expecially hurtful to the cause to bring in these "personalities," or "celebrities!"

It's all beginning to turn this conservative's stomach! It's time to stop showing contempt for the "court of public opinion" or the cause for life will be damaged for decades IMO. Don't worry. I don't expect everybody to agree with this. So shun me, but don't get in my face, if you don't mind.(That wasn't directed at you personally, Mindbender26!)

now it is time for all the Dems to pile on in favor of Terri

Me thinks you have nailed it.

The world's best political opportunists will show up about now, however, they may have unintended consequences.

If enough congresscritters pile on, they may force the testimony in front of congress of the medical personnel involved, and the subpoena of ALL THE COURT AND HOSPITAL RECORDS. Greer and his deathocrats will try to withhold, but will fail just as long as they keep Sandy Burger out of the courthouse.

The publicity will expose Greer and seriously set back the deathocrat agenda.
