I will be writing about my feelings regarding this frivilous lawsuit and how it is impacting me, my life, my family and my friends. I will also be writing about my observations about how this ridiculous suit is impacting my co-defendant's.
Many of you know that I have stated numerous times that Phil & I were friends for more than 10 years. I can't point to an exact date when we met, but it was during the Impeachment of President Clinton and our activism against his removal from office. We both opposed it and were very strong activists in preventing it. Phil would attend protests, and I would organize from the safety of my room which I rarely left. We would often speak on the phone for hours late at night about politics, our families, and our lives. Me in my room in Texas and him in his office in Philadelphia. We became friends,at least I believed we were friends.
I understand according to the ways Lisa and Momma E publicly describes our relationship since the filing of these ridiculous suits, Phil was never my friend at all. Maybe Phil & I have vastly differing ideas of what constitutes friendship. However, I know he identified me as his friend from Texas on numerous radio appearances when telling people how he got involved with the Obama Citizenship Legal Suits and Debate from all my phone calls to him. Maybe someone should ask him how he defines a friend. According to Lisa and Momma E, I was just some Internet email acquaintance who never meant anything to Phil. [If that is all I ever meant to him, I can't begin to describe how utterly betrayed I feel NOW or how devastatingly betrayed I felt on March 6th when Phil banned me, especially after having defended him and his actions in filing suit against Obama for all these months when he was attacked by Obama Trolls. And especially after Phil knew I'd been through hell and intense counseling for many years to get back to a semi-normal life again.]
I spoke to his mother occasionally. When he wanted to run in the Primary to become the Democratic nominee in opposition to Rick Santorum for the US Senate, Phil asked me to speak to his mother and convince her why he ought to run. When he was actually running, and when on occasion he had some time constraints that prevented his having time to write speeches for public appearances, he asked me to write a few speeches for him. When I had a legal matter to address, it was Phil who helped me to resolve it in '99.
In 2000, when Bush and Cheney both became Republican canddiates from the state of Texas, in direct violation to the Constitution, I worked from my room to assist Phil with research on Cheney's Residency and Homesteading of his mansion in Dallas, Texas. Phil filed suit and Republican judges appointed by Reagan and Bush 41 denied and ruled against him, in direct violation of the Constitution, on appeals all the way up to the Supreme Court.
I was diagnosed with Major Affective Depressive Disorder and Agoraphobia which is defined as an abnormal fear of being in crowds, public places, or open areas and sometimes is accompanied by anxiety attacks. Never at any time in my life have I ever been suspected of delusions, psychosis, or mental nstability. Depression and mental instability are vastly different issues. Serious is a serious mood disorder, not an indicator of competence. What none of you know is what was the original cause for my deep Depression and Agoraphobia.
Though it is a painful memory, I was the victim of a very brutal and vicious sexual assault by a co-worker whom I had lunch with and realized this man was not someone I wanted to get to know further. That night he came to my apartment at 2:30 in the morning and having been asleep, I remember groggily wondering how he knew where I lived while I unhooked the chain and opened the door under the false pretense he had a flat tire. As soon as I did, I realized my mistake as he forcefully pushed his way in and backed me into my bedroom by the front door. He pushed me down onto the bed. I was screaming and fighting to push him back and off of me, but he was a big former Golden Gloves Boxer and I was NO MATCH for his size or strength. He was about 6 foot tall while I am 5' 1 1/2". During this assault, my son, (whom I love more than life itself) was used as the weapon against me to silence my screams under threats of hurting him if he came to assist me. I nearly bit my lip off while this sick man was taking particular delight in hurting me.
Througout the assault in what seemed like an eternity but was probably closer to an hour, he kept telling me how I was his woman, how he intended to make me have a baby so I better not be using birth control, and how my body was his territory while he marked me with hickies everywhere. When it was over, I was covered with bruises, abrasions and hickies. It was nearly 100 degrees and I had to wear turtlenecks with long sleeves and black tights to hide my injuries for the next week. My son and other co-workers immediatley noticed the change in me from an outgoing, gregarious personality to jumpy, skittish and hyper vigilant. He made it clear he better not catch me talking to any other man and he'd be watching me. I was afraid to go out of my apartment often peeking from behind the mini-blinds to make sure he hadn't come back or was watching me and I was terrified to walk to my car when I'd leave work to go home after 9 at night. I had horrible nightmares and relived my assault over and over and over in my mind. I couldn't talk about it without feeling nauseated and knew if I reported it, I'd be the one out of a job. The car dealership was certainly not going to fire it's top salesman. It was on May 5th.
This man proceeded to terrorize and stalk me in the following months. As a co-worker on my night and weekend second job (which I needed and there were 10,000 applicants for every job opening at the time), he would often come up behind me attemting to put his hand up my skirt or under my sweater. He made lewd sexual jokes to me and about me to the other salesmen. I became so frightened that I was constantly peeking out the window behind the blinds in my apartment to see if he was watching me. I was afraid to call the police and report it for fear he might hurt my son in retaliation. I moved to another apartment miles away from my two jobs, which were each down the street from where I had been living. I closed the whole ordeal up inside me and never talked about it. Gradually I began to function better so that I almost was able to live a normal existence. I don't say life because inside I was being eaten up with shame and guilt and overwhelming feelings of humiliation. This is what happens to women who are victims of sexual assault. We blame ourselves for whatever foolish mistake we made, the clothes we wore, or the fact that in my case, I'd had lunch with someone I didn't know was a nutcase and sexual predator who was fixated on me. It is the source of so much of the suffering we go through.
I was later in a 3 year relationship full of domestic abuse and physical violence. As soon as I discovered I was pregnant the abuse started, but felt I had to try to get him some help for what I found out were childhood abuse issues. I was often hit for some unknown reason depending on whether or not the alcoholic was mad at the world, or simply if he didn't like the way I drove down the street. There was an inch thick file of police reports from them having to drag him off me. The neighbors would call police when they saw him smacking me in the yard, or if they heard my screams. Finally, I was sexually assaulted again. I held it together until he was sent to jail and I cratered. My father died leaving me with unresolved abandonment issues. My brother in law died suddenly and we'd been as close as a real brother and sister.
Events in my life kept knocking me down. I had moved in with my mother because I couldn't really take care of my baby on my own since I was no longer functioning. It took many years of intense counseling for me to recover enough so that I could move back to my own home.
Phil asked me about what had caused me to be so Depressed and not leaving my home to go out anywhere. I told him a little bit about it, but remember, I was in therapy and could still hardly talk about it. I clearly remember telling him what I recently shared with Lisa, that May 5th is always a very difficult day for me and maybe would always be a source of a lot of pain for me. When I moved back to my home July 2002, we drifted apart, but still when we spoke, it was like it had been yesterday each time I called him. It was a friendship I expected to last the rest of Phil's life, since he was so much older than me. I cared about him and his mother and when his brother died in December, I was very concerned about his 93 year old Mother's well being.
When I realized we needed a lawyer to address this issue, I brought the Obama Citizenship issue to Phil in June and again in July 2008, I had to convince him there was something wrong with the posted COLB on Obama's website. I told him he was the only lawyer I knew with big enough brass balls in the country who would take this up and do it justice. He told me in June to go back and do some more research. Then in July, he introduced me to Lisa to further the research and see if we could come up with enough evidence to justify a suit. We began working together about the third week in July. It wasn't long before she told me she lived in NM. I asked her how she managed to work for him from so far away and she responded by fax, email and phone calls. At no time, did she EVER say it was a big secret, OR that she had been a victim of donestic violence, she just said that she'd been involved in some big scandal when she lived in San Bernardino, CA and would rather people not know she lived in NM. The way she talked, I got the impression it had to do with her old job and some sort of whistleblower thing that he son's father had also been involved in. I didn't check her out when she said that becaue so many splits with ex's are bitter and angry. Police are often called, etc. I never thought past hearing "breakup" and never gave it any thought again. I had no reason to suspect Lisa's credibility.
During the course of the litigation, and the setup and management of ObamaCrimes.com, I came to believe that Lisa was my friend. I was certainly hers and finally I told her about my ordeal when once again she asked me about my debilitating illness that caused me to isolate for so long. Finally, after all these years, I was able to talk about it at length with someone I felt cared and understood without judging me for making a mistake and opening a door when I was half asleep.
Looking back now, I remember ironically how often Lisa used to say there are NO COINCIDENCES in life. I had no idea she was capable of such cruelty and lack of human empathy. She put on a good show of being my friend, yet later I learned from Phil, while I was trying to resolve the conflicts that began occuring in earnest in January, trying to make peace right up until March 4th, Lisa was compiling a 37 page dossier of complaints against me. With my heart sinking and swiftly getting broken to pieces, I realized as I listened to her lies to Phil on March 4th, there was no way this was going to end with my friendship with Phil intact. I knew if I said anything truthful against Lisa, Phil wasn't going to listen. I tried to let things cool down all of March 5th and 6th, and then Lisa lowered the boom on me without another word. No one would take my phone call, or answer my emails all of that day. Lisa had clearly sand bagged me from behind and had been doing so for many months. When I tried to call Phil, he hung up on me. I was heartbroken and devastated, but soon learned that wasn't the worst things Lisa & Phil had in store for me. People were telling me awful stories of things Lisa had been saying behind my back for months.
Lisa knew very well the significance of May 5th for me and nothing in this world will ever convince me that it was a coincidence they chose May 4th to file suit or that I was the first person served. The plaintiff's statements were sgned April 25, 209, so what was the delay? Lisa had to have made special arrangements to serve me so fast after filing on May 4th and I think Lisa manipulated events to coincide with that May 5th date. She is targeting me for so much infliction of additional pain. Not only was I betrayed by Phil and Lisa and Momma E, but the knowledge of the absolute cruelty with which I was treated, discarded and banned has been staggering. I have had every possible emotion from betrayal, hurt, anger, right through to devastation at the date they filed suit and had me served.
My entire world has imploded. Jay my significant other, went postal because he had been warning me about Lisa and Phil for months. And I had been defending them with my whole heart and soul, that they weren't like he was describing. Jay told me repeatedly I couldn't trust Lisa and that any friendship I had with Phil was gone. They were using me for personal gain and that once I stopped doing Lisa's dirty work, I'd be dropped. Jay kept insisting it was a money deal for them and they weren't sharing one penny with me. Lisa had me out on the blog claiming the donations were going solely to expenses and costs and no one was taking any money for pay. I was such a fool. I fell for her lies and manipulations hook, line and sinker.
Though I have never had a conversation or exchanged an email with Ed or Caren Hale prior to last week, I do intend to start making appearances on the various shows they broadcast. I feel I have the ability to vindicate them and have a moral responsibility to do so. And while revealing all of this is very painful for me (Not to mention has upset my sons very terribly), people must be made to understand the abuse and depth of humiliation I am receiving at the hands of Phil, Lisa and now Momma E. I never imagined in all these 10 plus years while I believed in my heart that we were friends, that Phil was capable of such utter cruelty to a person whom he KNEW had already been seriously kicked around by life. And no matter how hard I try to understand, I can't fathom Momma E's efforts to defame, hurt and humiliate me, when I've never said a bad thing about her to anyone. It baffles my ability to comprehend such actions from people I honestly cared for deeply and defended from vicious attacks from Obama Trolls on the OC blog with all of my being.
Watch for more in the coming days and weeks. I welcome honest comments and hope people will recognize the hurtful injustices done to me, and understand how I feel used, abused and discarded.
Sorry that things have imploded for you. I would think that 10 years would mean something, but have been wrong before. Welcome to the Patriots Radio Network. I certainly hope that now you have surrounded yourself with people that have a common cause and not an overwhelming ego that has to be stroked. In the last few months especially, life has taught me like no other time, be very cautious about you tie yourself to and do NOT have blind trust in anybody. When will we women learn that we can not be all things to all people. Your family deserves your undying loyalty and that is all.
Be safe!
Hi Linda, I heard you on Plains Radio and I knewimmediately that you are a very truthful,caring person,so I joined your site to let you know I care.I feel so bad about what has happened to you,and Ed & Caren.I can relate to what you arew saying about how life seems so unfair to you & is.My life is the same way.It seems that the good,honest,most caring people in the world always gets burnt by evil people.What I realize is that God will Bless us in time and He will bring justice to us in the end.It will all be worth while in the end.Just remain the same honest caring person that you are and you will be blessed.I appreciate the fight we are all fighting to have Obama removed and arrested and we can never quit until we succeed.God Bless you & God Bless America!
Linda, I listened to you on Plains Radio tonight, and your heartfelt pain from Berg was obvious. I feel so bad what you are going through. You clearly are Berg's friend, despite this cruelty.
You helped us see that he is being master manipulated by some people, and I hope you can patiently persist towards bringing to light those you sense are doing this. He impressed me as a very sincere person, when I see him interviewed.
He has been made to believe you have said and done certain things, and he seems a kind-hearted person who has not been subjected to this before, perhaps, despite being a district attorney. There are people who start cleverly and slowly build trust, and then trick you. This person seems skilled in this.
I have worked with some people like this, and know that in time the truth comes out. It is obvious who is manipulating him, but I hope that you can protect your heart from the betrayal, and realize he has been masterfully and artfully duped. It would not be surprising to find out some people were even paid to move into his work and bring him down.
Despite this setback, I want to applaud you for initiating this awareness of "something is wrong with Obama." What insight!
It is certainly gaining momentum and you may not be aware that military are starting to join a criminal complaint filed by Walter Fitzpatrick in Tennessee. They may file a complaint to the Joint Chiefs of Staff, which I hope they do. The military are the ones who can truly resolve this issue justly and peacefully.
Obama definitely needs to be removed. When I watched a You Tube video from May 10 of him making a joke about terrorizing New Yorkers with the Air Force One plane, and his daughters were on a joy ride, it made me sick. I could see who he really was, and what a corrupt heartless person, to emotionally and psychologically abuse Americans. For that alone, he should be marched out in handcuffs. He is not psychologically fit to lead. People are starting to see who he is. So thank you for your relentless work.
I loved hearing your recognition of Orly. Thank you for your tribute to her. She is truly remarkable, isn't she. Who would have thought a Russian immigrant would be our greatest Patriot!! Lady Liberty!! Maybe you can assist her...that would be some good coming out of all this. I know she is trying to reach you, I saw her posting on her site for your phone number. Please call her if you can.
I wanted to let you know I had trouble entering your site. When you sign in and your site sends an e-mail to my site, for verification, it went into "junk mail." I waited and waited and tried twice, but nothing came. Then it occurred to me to look at junk mail, which I never do, and there was your notification.
Other people may be having this problem and that might be why your site has low activity. Usually these e-mail notifications come in the regular mail list. I have hotmail. You could put on your web site for people to check both mail lists including junk mail, or else fix your site to send it to the main mail list. Just wanted to let you know!!
You mentioned your past terrible experiences and I pray for your healing. What a terrible tragic thing to go through. It takes time to get distance and healing from such a tragedy.
You have not mentioned any spiritual background. I myself am Catholic, and forgive me for sharing my faith. I do not mean to be pushy or obnoxious, but want to share some thoughts.
I would encourage you to head to a Catholic bookstore and buy a "Miraculous Medal." You can read about it on the internet, and about Catherine Laboure.
It is fantastic. It will protect you. Envelope you in peace.
Also, learn about the Rosary. It is the "Gospel prayer" of the Church. As you gradually bring it into your life, your mind will be healed and peaceful in a way your never thought possible. Offer your life to God, He alone can heal. He can give you the ability to forgive your attacker and even pray for the salvation of his soul. Hard to to as a human, but God can give you the grace. Forgiveness will free your soul from any negative injury and vibration. Why give that person any more power over you? Forgiveness takes all your power back, and frees you.
Millions have prayed the Rosary down through the centuries. It is like climbing aboard a Train to Heaven. Start slowly, and just carry the rosary in your pocket. It chases demons away!!
If you enjoy books, you might read the life of Maria Goretti. She is a patron saint of rape victims.
You are not responsible for what happened to you, Linda. Aggression is the responsibility of the aggressor. Sadly, some people are sick and unbalanced.
Young women are often not aware of how extremely unbalanced some men are and how they misinterpet women or the men themselves have been abused and have no sense of respect.
No matter what happened to you, it was only your body, not your soul. Your soul is God's treasure. Focus on moving closer to God in the depths of your soul, and when you have a bad memory, ask Jesus to stand there and hold your hand right there in the memory. It will actually change the memory. He can heal painful memories and enter the subconscious and remove trauma.
Best of all, explore the Catholic Church, if you are not a member of a faith group. They have the unusual Treasure of the Eucharist, the living body of Christ. Food for the Journey. It is fantastic!
I apologize and do not mean to preach, only to share. I too have suffered, in a different way, but wanted to share with you some things that helped me, and might bring the same inner joy and peace to you that they brought me.
I have found that there are things that medicine and counselors cannot reach...but spiritual tools can get there and heal.
Thanks again, Linda, for stepping out and standing strong with Orly and Plains Radio Caren and Ed Hale. Your truth speaking is a powerful witness.
It sounds like you have quite a lawyer, who can set things straight. There is a culprit at Berg's office who has an obvious criminal past, now repeating this type of thing, and so ferreting out the troublemaker and resolving this will be a blessing for all. Berg too. Thank God you were positioned in a place to know the truth. God works in strange ways.
I hope Berg can be freed of her psychic powers, and prayer might help release him.
I hope very much you two can become friends again, you and Berg. Wouldn't that be a happy ending?
Whatever lies she told him to turn him against you, and to believe things about you, I hope he finally can see the truth.
In all this hurt, you sound like a true and loyal friend. Sadly, people are only human. We have to trust only in God, and realize people are fragile creatuers and there but for the grace of God go you or I.
God bless you, Linda, and God bless America. May all good things come to you. Please look up on the internet the prayer called the Breastplate of St. Patrick. It is a beautiful beautiful prayer of protection that I think you would love. St. Patrick worked among pagans and cannibals in Ireland and lived to be 100!!
God bless you always.
Linda,
Your story is one of the saddest I have ever heard but I am glad I took the time to read and get a better understanding of this situation.
I am so sorry you feel betrayed and I can surely see why you would feel that way. I just hope that everyone begins to take a good hard look at what has happened here and that friendships can be mended. You and Phil were friends too long to have something like this destroy that friendship.
Hold you head high! You know you haven't done anything wrong and the truth will come out.
God bless!
Thank you for your kind words.
There can never been any sort of mending fences, or reconciliation of our former friendship. Haven't you heard? According to comments made by others, it was all a figment of my imagination. Phil never considered me a friend at all. He sure had me fooled. I sure was a sucker, working my butt off, researching, blogging and any other task asked of me for 16+ hours of every day, including Thanksgiving, Xmas and New Years.
Phil has defamed and libeled me, and my good name has been destoryed so that I can never perform oppositional research again. The revelations of my identity and location has actually placed me and my family in far greater danger than anything Lisa has ever faced. I was the real victim of domestic violence for 3 years, while LIsa has been postng her real name, supplied a five page sworn affidavit to the DC court in Hollister vs Soetoro AND made numerous apperances on Internationally broadcast radio shows since last Sept. But let me get this straight, they are asking the court to protect HER from ME??? Who is the real victim here of whom?
Linda,
It is so hard to understand all of this. Wouldn't you think with Phil having been
Deputy AG of PA that he would have done a background check on his employee? Maybe he did and decided to give her another chance, which would be admirable, but that doesn't explain putting 100% trust in her and turning his back on a friend of 10 years. Something is rotten in Demark!!! It just doesn't pass the smell test. If I had my office in PA, it sure would make more sense to hire someone who was close at hand. Besides that, if I had even a small hint that one of my employees had a record like that, I would at least check it out at that point. So strange.....
The truth will come out and you will be vindicated. It is just so unfair that you have been put in jeopardy and that your name has been destroyed. You do not deserve this!
Thank you Delaney. Unless a person has endured a betrayal of this magnitude and at this personal level, it would be difficult for anyone to appreciate how hurt and devastated I am. I trusted these people completely and not only was I betrayed and privilege violated, but they stomped me on a day when they knew I'd be vulnerable and therefore more easily wounded by the malice of their actions.
I am left to think it's because, contrary to reports by Momma E & Lisa, I really was an insider. Poor old Momma E clearly doesn't understand all the plaintiff's are suing all the co-defendants.. I believe service was deliberately timed by Lisa to inflict as much pain upon me as humanly possible. Other things have been done to hurt me horribly, beyond any efforts later by the courts to repair the damage done to me, like making defamatory accusations against me in the pleadings and prior to the filing, spreading defamatory lies about me all over the Internet. Nothing can ever repair the damage done to me by their actions in their zeal to harm me. And I will certainly never again trust any attorney with information about my personal tragedies. This has taught me a valuable lesson, that privilege is only as good as the professional who carries it's responsibilities.
There will be a vindication of us, but civil justice is expensive. It seems to me that if we were not able to raise funds for a defense, then plaintiffs would win by default and we would be found "guilty" in the court of public opinion and have judgments against us. Then they could falsely claim Lisa was vindicated. All allegations against me are baseless and this entire suit is a most frivilious waste of the courts time.
However, when everyone sees the overwhelming evidence we are gathering proving our innocence, I suspect other people are going to be very upset and feel they have been deceived, too. And since it's in a federal court, the evidence will be plastered all over the Internet....pages and pages and pages of it! As bad as the information was that had already been gathered, what we found in the past week was way beyond my wildest imagination. I was not prepared for what we learned. "Crazy tangent" is how Phil describes my pain and sufering while he defames me on radio shows repeatedly the past week.
Because justice is expensive, we have to raise a lot of money for the lawyer to cover expenses. I don't want to be in charge of the money because Phil, Lisa & Momma E have defamed me by falsely accusing me of being a thief, so Ed Hale at PRN is handling it and all of the co-defendants have access to the account to see what's coming in and going out. Sort of a failsafe system so Ed isn't accused of any mischief by certain people who have no problem with filing false sworn affidavits in courts. There is a special donate button just for this lawsuit on the Plains Radio Network.
Linda,
I notice on Orly's site she has a banner that says something like "This space is available for your advertisement." Have you thought of doing that? Is there anyway I can help you? When you need help, you need to let us know. I am sure most everyone would be glad to help in any small way we can. We all need to pull together, and not just for the eligibility problem.
I know you are hurting and I wish I could help take away your pain but just know that you will be in my prayers, along with your sons, and that your heart will be healed and that you will be kept safe.
Well, I really appreciate all your kind words and expressions to me. I feel like my life has been shattered and it's good to remember there are still many good and kind people in this world. {{{HUGS}}} It means a lot to me to have the support of our friends here.
I hope people can donate to help us raise money for the lawyer. I have been footing the bills for this website/blog myself, but now I am in the credibility battle of my life and I don't intend to lose to a liar who has engaged in defamation of my good name and devastation of good heart. I gave my heart and loyalty to people who trampled me for their own mean agenda. I don't understand what makes some people so petty and cruel. I truly don't. I do hope people will donate to either the expenses for this site or the legal defense fund. I need to ask my friend to help me add a donate button to go to the legal defense fund. I don't know how to do that myself.
I do want to say again, we will be found innocent of these baseless accusations. Thank you again.
