Kevin Scholla, SarahNET Radio first interviewed Bobby Schindler, brother of Terri Schiavo on February 13 to discuss the forthcoming gala fund-raiser featuring former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.

Brief Chronology of Terri Schiavo’s Life, Terri’s Day

Terri Schiavo would have been 49 this past December. Terri grew up with her brother in Philadelphia. She became disabled at age 26 and needed a feeding tube to sustain her life. This led to a long drawn out court battle between her husband and the Schindler family. Ultimately, Terri’s husband prevailed, the feeding tube was pulled and Terri suffered barbarically, dying a horrible death two weeks later. Pope John Paul II’s final act before his own death days later was to defend Terri’s right to life. She died March 31, 2005 of starvation and dehydration when her feeding tube was cut off.

Terri’s Day was established to commemorate her death and also to “recognize the disabled who are in the cross hairs of an anti-life culture,” Schindler said. A mass at the Basilica Cathedral will precede the gala at which Gov Palin will speak.

Schindler said his sister “had a great sense of humor, was easy to get along with, had a deep love for animals, and was very close to her family.”

The Schindlers spent birthdays, Christmases and other holidays together as a family. Bobby and Terri went through the parochial school system and enjoyed their childhoods. “It was a very special time of our lives,” Schindler said.

He says he now remembers her by fighting for others in similar conditions.

Who Better to Speak at Terri’s Day Gala than Gov Palin?

“We are so blessed and fortunate to have Gov. Palin speak this event. Who better than someone who fought so hard for what she believed in and even coined the phrase, ‘death panels,’ which is really what we are dealing with on a day-to-day basis with our foundation now. So, we’re just very happy that she will be kicking off our gala – our first one – and we couldn’t think of anyone better to represent the cause of life,” Schindler said.

Terri Schiavo and Culture of Life

Scholla asked if the death of Terri Schiavo brought about improvements in the dignity of life by bringing these issues to the fore. “That’s a very difficult question to answer,” Schindler said. “In some ways it is and some ways no.” He said media reporting about his sister’s death has created a lot of confusion and in some ways perpetuated the notion that the lives of people with certain disabilities have no value and can be terminated at will.

Terri’s Day Sponsors Needed

He agreed with Scholla in that “Terri is still with us” to remind people of the value of life. Schindler said ObamaCare places less value on the lives of the elderly and those with debilitating disabilities. He made his foundation his life’s work. Schindler hopes to establish an outpatient rehab in Terri Schiavo’s name to help those with brain injuries. The rehab would be in the Philadelphia area and open within the next year or two. Money raised from sponsorships at the gala will go toward building the rehab center.

The gala is at 1930 / 7:30 EDT after the Mass. Complete information on tickets and sponsorships is at lifeandhope.com.

Steel Resolve: Valentine’s Message to Obama, Congress: CUT!

Sarah Steelman opened her segment saying, “this week brings us Valentine’s Day. Remember those candy hearts special Valentines messages like, ‘I’m yours,’ or ‘be mine’ or ‘kiss me’?” She continued, “I bet we all have a special message we’d like to send to Congress or Pres. Obama. My special message has to do with the sequestration. Listening to both sides of this debate makes me wonder what it is I am missing. The sequester or automatic cuts that take place this fiscal year that both Congress and the President have approved have been under attack by both sides.”

Steelman went on to say, “but what is all the fuss about? The cuts For this year total $85 billion out of a $3.8 trillion total budget. Eighty-five billion dollars equals approximately 2.2% of the total budget. Most families and businesses cut a lot more than 2.2% out of their budgets for the past four years.” She continued, “it is too bad it is not evenly distributed across all budgets instead of just hitting the defense budget disproportionately hard, however, it was a measure that was approved by both Republicans and Democrats, and they refused to come to grips with the budget in 2011. It seems Washington has a selective memory. For those of us conservatives who want to reduce government spending, $85 billion out of $3.8 trillion seems minor.”

Steelman concluded, “my special candy heart Valentines Day message to President Obama and Congress is cut now before it’s too late.”

Kelly Hancock, TX-9 Assembly Discusses Palin, AGU Successes on SarahNET Radio

Kevin Scholla host of The Palin Update will be a guest on Gennifer Flower’s radio show SEX, POWER & POLITICS tonight – November 11, 2012! They’ll be talking about Sarah Palin! Be sure to tune in around 10:15 pm ET! http://wgso.com/?page_id=24945


Kelly Hancock, fresh off of winning a State Senate seat in Texas, is the guest on The Palin Radio Update with Kevin Scholla. Hancock talks to Kevin about the great success enjoyed in The Lone Star State, something many other states are yearning for especially after the reelection of Barack Obama. Despite the Obama win, candidates endorsed by Sarah Palin fared quite well this past Tuesday. Ted Cruz, Deb Fischer, Jeff Flake, Orrin Hatch, Ted Yoho, and Paul Gosar will all head to Washington. American Grizzlies United also made its presence known. Hancock, and 42 other AGU candidates won on Election Day. Also, Governor Palin calls on all of us to not lose heart and to continue to fight for our exceptional country. Plus, SarahNET Radio’s Steel Resolve, our weekly commentary from Sarah Steelman. Steelman rails against the GOP for shunning Palin and blasts the NRSC for acting like Stepford Wives.

RINOs Lose, Reagan-Palin Conservatives Win

The 2012 election was a loss for the Republican establishment, the RINOs and the moderates. Reagan-Palin conservatives did very well. Gov. Palin endorsed 14 candidates in 2012 for the US Senate and House. Of the 14, eight were elected resulting in an overall success rate of 57.14%. Six of the eight successful candidates were endorsed during their primary seasons, resulting in a success rate of 75% for that subset. American Grizzlies United supported 63 down-ticket candidates and 43 of them won their elections. AGU’s success rate, therefore is 66.67% or 67% rounded up.

In his interview with Kevin Scholla, Hancock said we need to move forward and not over-focus on the losses. Though we did not take the Senate, that body has become more conservative with Palin endorsees Cruz, Flake, Hatch, and Fischer taking or retaining seats. In the House Gosar and Yoho, were two of Gov. Palin’s successes. With Gov. Palin’s support, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker and Lieutenant Governor Rebecca Kleefisch defeated the Democrats’ attempt to recall them earlier this year. These results suggest that success lies in sticking with Reagan-Palin conservative principles.

NRSC’s Stepford Wives

Sarah Steelman in her segment, “Steel Resolve,” lambasted the National Republican Senatorial Committee for promoting “Stepford Wives” RINOs, almost all of whom lost.

SarahNET Radio Interviews Vacaville, CA City Council Candidate

Jennifer Goode is the guest on The Palin Update with Kevin Scholla! Sarah Palin has stressed the importance of quality candidates on the local level and Goode is exactly that. She’s running for council in Vacaville, California and you will be impressed with this energetic, determined candidate. Also, Governor Palin attends another Dancing With The Stars performance in support of Bristol and promotes Our Sarah: Made In Alaska. Plus, Palin’s analysis on Mitt Romney’s decisive debate win, more Eric Holder controversy, and a potential Obama credit card scandal.

Local Races Closest to Electorate

Goode is an AGU General Election candidate. She said former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is correct: voters should pay close attention to local races, because these offices are the closest to the electorate. She said when a decision is made at the local level, constituents feel the effect of it within six months of it being voted on. Local races, unfortunately tend to be “so overlooked,” Goode said. She is running to “bring a fresh voice” to the Vacaville City Council, not to rubber-stamp decisions. She intends to act as a check and balance.

About Vacaville

Vacaville began as a small community 35 miles west of Sacramento and was developed in the middle of an orchard. The city now has a population of over 100,000 and has the “exact same trouble” as California’s larger cities. The state had abolished redevelopment plans for cities, cutting funding and forcing cities to scramble and cut vital services. Goode said, her goal is for Vacaville to maintain its sovereignty, identity, and small town feel all of which are eroding. She also wants to keep the state’s hands out of city funds. She said Vacaville is one of the top 100 places to live in California and she wants to maintain the city as such or improve further on it.

Incumbent to Goode: “I’ll Gut Your Campaign!”

Goode is running against two incumbents, one of whom threatened to “gut” her campaign. She said the incumbents are establishment types beholden to special interests. Lobbying, crony capitalism, and cutthroat politics very much exist at the local level just as they do at the state and national levels.

Earning Her Way

Goode said she has held jobs and had to answer to a boss, has lived paycheck-to-paycheck, been laid off due to downsizing and had to find new jobs and that her parents own and operate a small business. She said she does not want to see Vacaville end up filing for bankruptcy like other cities in California have because they’ve spent money they did not have on programs they could not afford. Goode pledged to be honest, open, and transparent in everything she does if she is elected to serve on the city council.

Fight Like a Girl

Goode said she loves Gov. Palin’s call to “fight like a girl,” which was said at her famous “Game On” speech in Madison, Wisconsin on April 16, 2011. Goode said women are often overlooked, but can be very tough. She described Gov. Palin as a positive role model who started her political career at the local level and “earned her way up,” battling special interests along the way.

Good Ideas from the Outside

She moved to Vacaville in 2003, but was born and raised in Illinois. Goode’s father worked for Caterpillar as his primary job, and her mother stayed home to take care of the family. Goodes’ father usually worked two or even three jobs to make ends meet. She said the Vacaville City Council is mostly comprised of people who have been born and raised in Vacaville their entire lives and “sometimes, good ideas can come from the outside.” She said the lessons she learned in life will serve her well as a councilwoman and said she would be impartial, not answering to a special interest, but doing what is right for the city.

Budget

She said Vacaville’s most important issue is the budget, because the state abolished redevelopment funds, leaving a $4 million deficit. The monies were to be used for revitalizing the city. Goode said, cities often used redevelopment funds “as a giant slush fund,” and not for their intended purpose. The funds often went to salaries, departments, and staff time. She said the Vacaville must get its budget back in line and learn to live within its means, and spend only what is brought in for legitimate government functions.

Public Safety

She said the second most important issue is public safety with the layoff of police officers, firefighters, and EMS. She said, while the first responders are professionals who do their day-to-day work well, a disaster or man-made event could stretch the public safety resources thin and create a liability for the city. She said waste needs to be identified in other others and public safety funds rebuilt to an acceptable level.

Transparency

The third most important issue, according to Goode is bringing transparency to local government. Council meetings are generally held on Tuesday nights at 7 PM. She wants to move them to two Saturdays per month in a park setting where people are invited to discuss issues that concern them. Goode said the current meetings tend to reflect the voices of special interests.

Vacaville Police Officers Association Endorsement

Goode is proud to have received the endorsement of the Vacaville Police Officers Association. She supports the Second Amendment, but noted not everyone has a gun in the house or wants to keep one. Goode said she wants to know when someone calls 911, the response will be immediate.

To Volunteer or Donate

Goode needs volunteers to phone bank, walk precincts, work in the office, install signs, and attend events. Her campaign also needs funding. She said the high cost of campaigning keeps a lot of good people out and the party structure tends to ignore the local races.
