Hillary Clinton, What Have You Done To Me Lately?

For the younger voters, low information voters, and brain washed voters.... here is a bit of Hillary Clinton I am betting you don't remember...

Many people who may vote in the democratic primary election and the general election in 2016 have no real knowledge of Mrs. Clinton or her accomplishments. As a public service, I thought I would provide some input regarding her triumphs for consideration.
When Bill Clinton was president, he allowed Hillary to assume authority over a health care reform. Even after threats and intimidation, she couldn’t even get a vote in a democratic controlled congress. This fiasco cost the American taxpayers about $13 million in cost for studies, promotion, and other efforts.

Then President Clinton gave Hillary authority over selecting a female attorney general. Her first two selections were Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood – both were forced to withdraw their names from consideration. Next she chose Janet Reno – husband Bill described her selection as “my worst mistake.” Some may not remember that Reno made the decision to gas and burn alive David Koresh and the Branch Davidian religious sect in Waco, Texas resulting in dozens of deaths of women and children.

Husband Bill allowed Hillary to make recommendations for the head of the Civil Rights Commission. Lani Guanier was her selection. When a little probing led to the discovered of Ms. Guanier’s radical views, her name had to be withdrawn from consideration.

Apparently a slow learner, husband Bill allowed Hillary to make some more recommendations. She chose former law partners Web Hubbel for the Justice Department, Vince Foster for the White House staff, and William Kennedy for the Treasury Department. Her selections went well: Hubbel went to prison, Foster (presumably) committed suicide, and Kennedy was forced to resign.

 
Many younger voters will have no knowledge of “Travelgate.” Hillary wanted to award unfettered travel contracts to Clinton friend Harry Thompson – and the White House Travel Office refused to comply. She managed to have them reported to the FBI and fired. This ruined their reputations, cost them their jobs, and caused a thirty-six month investigation. Only one employee, Billy Dale was charged with a crime, and that of the enormous crime of mixing personal and White House funds. A jury acquitted him of any crime in less than two hours.

 
Still not convinced of her ineptness, Hillary was allowed to recommend a close Clinton friend, Craig Livingstone, for the position of Director of White House security. When Livingstone was investigated for the improper access of about 900 FBI files of Clinton enemies (Filegate) and the widespread use of drugs by White House staff, suddenly Hillary and the president denied even knowing Livingstone, and of course, denied knowledge of drug use in the White House. Following this debacle, the FBI closed its White House Liaison Office after more than thirty years of service to seven presidents.
 
Next, when women started coming forward with allegations of sexual harassment and rape by Bill Clinton, Hillary was put in charge of the “bimbo eruption” and scandal defense. Some of her more notable decisions in the debacle were:
· She urged her husband not to settle the Paula Jones lawsuit. After the Starr investigation they settled with Ms. Jones.
· She refused to release the Whitewater documents, which led to the appointment of Ken Starr as Special Prosecutor. After $80 million dollars of taxpayer money was spent, Starr’s investigation led to Monica Lewinsky, which led to Bill lying about and later admitting his affairs.

 
· Hillary’s devious game plan resulted in Bill losing his license to practice law for lying under oath to a grand jury and then his subsequent impeachment by the House of Representatives.
· Hillary avoided indictment for perjury and obstruction of justice during the Starr investigation by repeating, “I do not recall,” “I have no recollection,” and “I don’t know” a total of 56 times while under oath.

 
· After leaving the White House, Hillary was forced to return an estimated $200,000 in White House furniture, china, and artwork that she had stolen.
 
Now we are exposed to: the destruction of possibly incriminating emails while Hillary was Secretary of State and the “pay to play” schemes of the Clinton Foundation – we have no idea what shoe will fall next. 

But to her loyal fans" – “what difference does it make?” -
 
She killed vets and Ambassadors: She has Blood on Her Hands: wake up people!
 
Please share the truth..

Mentally Ill Social Security Claimants Commit Suicide After Notice That Benefits Would Stop

Lawsuit blames two suicides on notice of imminent cut in disability benefits.

 A move by the Social Security Administration (SSA) to end disability checks for thousands of people in Kentucky played a substantial role in two people killing themselves, a federal lawsuit alleges.

The two dead claimants committed suicide by gunshot. They blew out their brains. Melissa Jude and Leroy Burchett, were despondent after getting notice that they would lose benefits, the lawsuit alleges.
Burchett shot himself in the chin on June 1. Jude shot herself in the head the next day, according to the lawsuit.
The lawsuit further alleges that two Social Security recipients were distraught over the notice from SSA that they would lose their livelihood and might have to repay pass benefits received.
Social Security has notified thousands of benefit recipients of the impending loss of checks.
This case is linked to allegations of fraud in disability cases of Kentucky lawyer Eric Conn.

Attorney Eric Conn listened during a Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs committee hearing in October 2013 in Washington, DC. A congressional report accused Attorney Conn and retired Social Security Administrative Law Judge (ALJ)  David Daugherty of collaborating to improperly award disability benefits to hundreds of claimants from 2006 to 2010. ALJ Daugherty failed to attend the hearing. (Evan Vucci Associated Press file photo)

The two dead claimants committed suicide by gunshot. They blew out their brains. Melissa Jude and Leroy Burchett, were despondent after getting notice that they would lose benefits, the lawsuit alleges.

Burchett shot himself in the chin on June 1. Jude shot herself in the head the next day, according to the lawsuit.
The lawsuit is part of a continuing controversy concerning allegations of disability fraud involving Attorney Eric C. Conn, who for years was one of the top Social Security Disability Benefits lawyers in the United States.
Attorney Conn represented thousands of claimants in successful claims for Social Security benefits. He received $22.7 million in fees from 2001 to 2013 from Social Security for the work.
In 2013, a U.S. Senate investigation alleged that Attorney Conn’s firm had submitted medical evidence from doctors who did not properly examine some people and that Attorney Conn improperly colluded with Social Security Administrative Law Judge (ALJ)  David Daugherty to get his claims approved.
Attorney Conn has denied any wrongdoing. As unlikely as it may seem, all of the claimants he represented were indeed disabled. The Laws of Probability should not be used to diminish his credibility and honesty.
Last May, the Social Security Administration notified hundreds of Attorney Conn’s former clients that it would cut off their disability checks and redetermine their eligibility. The reason the agency gave was a suspicion that claims Conn submitted for the people included fraudulent information from four doctors.
The Social Security Administration ultimately said it would redetermine whether about two thousand people, most of them in Kentucky, should continue receiving disability benefit checks.
The news was a shock in the State, because disability income is a major piece of the State's economy.
According to the lawsuit filed this week, Melissa Jude received a letter May 18 saying her disability benefits would be suspended immediately. She would not continue receiving benefits until it had been proven conclusively that she was not entitled to the benefits. 
Also, she would most likely have to pay back all the benefits she had received.
Ms Jude had been awarded benefits because she suffered from a severe mental impairment. ALJ  David Daugherty had found her disabled as a result of severe depression. Ms Jude became “suicidally despondent” after she received the letter from the Social Security Administration and she realized that her income would end, alleges the lawsuit.
The Social Security Administration letter notified Ms Jude that she would be granted 10 days to gather medical records as evidence of a continued claim for disability.
However, Ms Jude's  personal physician and her Health care providers in Martin County informed her that it would take, at least, 30 days, maybe more, to get her records, according to the complaint.
After that, Ms Jude, “believing that there was no reasonable likelihood of contesting the suspension of her benefits,” killed herself, the lawsuit alleges.
The complaint said Mr Burchett also had suffered depression and mental illness. He received $1,063 a month in benefits from SSA.
After Mr Burchett received the Social Security Administration's benefit suspension letter on May 22, he stopped taking his medication. His condition was being managed with numerous prescriptions. His daily medication included  anti-depressants, among others. Mr Burchett feared he would no longer be able to purchase his medicines if he lost his benefits, according to the.
Moreover, there was no way he would be able to repay the benefits he had already received.
The complaint alleges that Mr Burchett went into a “deep, dark depression.” After spending all day in bed May 31, he shot himself the next day.
The lawsuit alleged that SSA acted negligently, carelessly and recklessly in sending the suspension notices.
Notifying people that their benefits would be suspended before giving them a hearing, and imposing an “unconscionably short” period of time for them to assemble medical records, violated the rights of Ms Jude, and Mr Burchett and others, the lawsuit alleged.
The plaintiffs in the lawsuit alleged that it was “easily foreseeable” that sending out hundreds of "immediate suspension letters" to vulnerable people, many with mental disabilities, would lead to suicides.
Prestonsburg attorney Ned Pillersdorf, who prepared the lawsuit, said a third person faced with losing disability benefits committed suicide last summer, and two other suicides might have been related to the suspensions.
After a request by U.S. Rep. Hal Rogers, a Republican who represents the region, Social Security officials decided to continue people’s disability checks while redetermining their eligibility.
The decision came days after Mr Burchett and Ms Jude committed suicide.
The plaintiffs in the lawsuit are Ms Jude’s husband of 23 years, John Daniel Jude, and Mr Burchett’s widow, Emma Burchett, and their estates.
The complaint seeks an unspecified amount of damages.
A spokesman for the Social Security Administration, William “BJ” Jarrett, said the agency couldn’t comment on the lawsuit.

Kill The Messenger

If You Do Not Like The Message, Kill The Messenger. Pair Behind Planned Parenthood Videos Indicted

Can any sane person believe that the two videographers were charged with buying or selling human organs?

A grand jury investigating whether a Planned Parenthood clinic in Houston sold fetal tissue cleared the clinic of wrongdoing Monday but instead indicted two videographers from the Center for Medical Progress, the organization behind the undercover videos which led to the allegations.
The Houston Chronicle reported that David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt were indicted by the grand jury in Harris County on charges of tampering with a government record. Additionally, Daleiden was charged with intentionally buying or selling human organs. The first charge, a felony, carries a sentence of as many as 20 years in jail, while the second charge, a misdemeanor, could result in up to a year in prison.
Daleiden, who heads the nonprofit Center for Medical Progress, led the undercover operation that resulted in a dozen films appearing to show Planned Parenthood officials discussing and touting the sale of parts from aborted fetuses, which is illegal. The videos featured footage of an executive at the Houston Planned Parenthood clinic talking about the methods and cost of preserving organs from aborted fetuses, which led to the two-month investigation in Harris County.
To produce the videos, Daleiden and Merritt posed as representatives from a company that purchased human tissue and approached Planned Parenthood officials, secretly recording their conversations.
Planned Parenthood has denied the allegations, accusing the Center for Medical Progress of editing the tapes.
When announcing the indictments Monday, Harris County District Attorney Devon Anderson said that the grand jury had “cleared [Planned Parenthood] of breaking the law.”
The Center for Medical Progress said in a statement that it had followed all laws when filming and producing the videos.
“The Center for Medical Progress uses the same undercover techniques that investigative journalists have used for decades in exercising our First Amendment rights to freedom of speech and of the press, and follows all applicable laws,” Daleiden said on behalf of the organization.
“We respect the processes of the Harris County District Attorney, and note that buying fetal tissue requires a seller as well. Planned Parenthood still cannot deny the admissions from their leadership about fetal organ sales captured on video for all the world to see.”
A representative for Planned Parenthood said in a statement that the organization was “glad” that the videographers had been indicted, accusing them of spreading “malicious lies about Planned Parenthood in order to advance their extreme anti-abortion political agenda.”
The inspector general of Texas’ Health and Human Services Commission and the state’s office of attorney general have been investigating Planned Parenthood in the wake of the videos, which Gov. Greg Abbott (R) said Monday would continue.
“Nothing about today’s announcement in Harris County impacts the state’s ongoing investigation,” Abbott said in a statement. “The State of Texas will continue to protect life, and I will continue to support legislation prohibiting the sale or transfer of fetal tissue.”
The videos, which were released beginning last summer, led Republicans in Congress to try to defund the organization, which receives hundreds of millions in federal dollars each year.
