Clinton Tells Inaccurate Health Care Horror Story-3/8/08
Update: Partial vindication from AP - http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/us/AP-Clinton-Hospital-Fact-Check.html

“Over the last five weeks, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York has featured in her campaign stump speeches the story of a health care horror: an uninsured pregnant woman who lost her baby and died herself after being denied care by an Ohio hospital because she could not come up with a $100 fee.
The woman, Trina Bachtel, did die last August, two weeks after her baby boy was stillborn at O’Bleness Memorial Hospital in Athens, Ohio. But hospital administrators said Friday that Ms. Bachtel was under the care of an obstetrics practice affiliated with the hospital, that she was never refused treatment and that she was, in fact, insured.”
“Linda M. Weiss, a spokeswoman for the not-for-profit hospital, said the Clinton campaign had never contacted the hospital to check the accuracy of the story, which Mrs. Clinton had first heard from a Meigs County, Ohio, sheriff’s deputy in late February.”
This is video of Hillary Clinton telling the story in Wyoming on March 8, 2008.

The only people voting for Hillary Clinton are women!
They don’t care that Hillary has run a “piss poor” campaign, that has been desperate, disorganized, and at times even bankrupt!
They still want Hillary to run the country & the economy, despite her incredibly poor management skills because she is a woman!
These same “women”/Hillary supporters were mad at CHEATING Bill Clinton, but now support Hillary Clinton - an even BIGGER LIAR THAN HER HUSBAND!
White Males for Obama ‘08!

Jerome Zeifman, was lead Democratic counsel during Watergate.
In a recent interview, of Hillary, he said: “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality”.
Zeifman fired and refused to give her a letter of recommendation. He also said that he regrets not reporting her to bar associations.
But, Hillary had not passed the bar at that point.
Ooooops!

Only weak males with shrunken nut sacks turn Hillary’s role on Colombian trade into a negative thing. She is a human begin, not a machine with every detail of her life memorized.
Voters will come crawling back to Hill when they wake up to Obama’s jive talk!
Real men have Hill’s back!

She lies with confidence. Calm, very calm. Smiling, gesturing, looking you straight in the eyes, whiles fabricating a lie in such vividity. She is a master in the Art Of Lying. Keep on the watch out, she will tell another lie in the near future and what how she will do it. Cool, calm and calculated.
