How many protestors are outside the hospice for Shaivo?
Look how the press is hawking this debacle. They have picked up this issue and now it's getting almost 24 hour attention. How many people protested the War in Iraq? How many people protest the 9/11 cover-up? How many protestors marched on New York protesting the RNC? How many protestors screamed fraud on the steps of our state capitol buildings. How many people protest drilling in Anwar, bankruptcy sell-out, government propaganda.... on and on and on. But what do we get to see, the death of one American while the silent suffering of millions and the death of democracy goes unsung. What a completely disgusting show of biased media and crooked politics. Thomas Jefferson would be disgusted by what our country has become. Where is their shame?

1. They have no shame
And that is a big part of the problem. I agree, the media coverage is so biased and so 'spun', it's just about worthless. I mean, why focus so much on this one family? Why does Congress 'care' so much about her? Why not the people dying of starvation, cold, lack of medical care EVERY FREAKIN' HOUR all over the country?? But no.

2. It's not about shame. It's not about pride.

3. The media is actually doing us all a favor.
Now they've put a face to who we need to fear, avoid, or purge when this whole nation comes to its senses.

You see, war protests and environmental protests aren't as fun to watch because everyone is too sane and sane is boring.

4. The Answer
Hey! Why doesn't Randall Terry get Benny Hinn down to Florida to heal Terry?

Apparently Terry and Hinn are good buddies.
