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.

The New York Times notes that most of the Clinton's charitable contributions went to their own foundation, which has yet to give away much of the money:

During that time, the Clintons paid $33.8 million in federal taxes and claimed deductions for $10.2 million in charitable contributions. The contributions went to a family foundation run by the Clintons that has given away only about half of the money they put into it, and most of that was last year, after Mrs. Clinton declared her candidacy.

I am only answering because I saw my name on your aaaargh post.

I promised MaddieP that I would not engage with out-of-touch Clintonon automaton trolls like you.

Besides, who died and made you monitor? Keep screeching AKA. Although I don't see you talk about Rezko much these days.

Sceeching is sexist language? Sorry, I insulted rats. I really cannot differentiate the sceeching between male and female rats.

I am heeding MaddieP's advice. Best no to engage Clinton trolls because they just won't listen to anything but bash Obama and look the other way as hillary continues with her bag of lies, lies and more lies

AKA is an attention getter and will feed on hate as long as she can control the conversation. So be strong and let her ramble on and on. She will go away once she realizes that people are past reading her diatribes. Just a suggestion.

I fell for her bait when she identified me on the header.

At least the Columbians have ethics about conflict of interest.

Call it an "Embarrassment of Riches". Every Saturday front page features the Clinton 109 million. Right next to that is the headline about growing unemployment. It's the hard life up against the Clintons' extraordinarily good life.

The dump occurred late in the very same day that Clinton had proposed the creation of a cabinet department to combat poverty in this country. How is this for starters: What about taxing the hell out of those who make obscene amounts of money and giving the money to the poor?

Clintonon automatons take heed. Your candidate is a compulsive liar, oops misspeaker. Go easy on that Kool Aid.

58,000 Americans were killed in Vietnam. Estimates of Vietnamese deaths are more than tenfold that number.

-- tom payne

Since when do we care how many of "those" we kill. Does anyone really care how many Iraqis are dead since shock and awe?

I would keep my D away from these castrating females

You have my vote Tom Payne. MSM never tells us how many people we kill overseas for our national security.

It is chhabili and not Chhalibi

On the Heels of the Tuzla Whopper, Clinton is Exposed for Repeatedly Telling An Anecdote Relating to Healthcare Reform That is Allegedly Wrong on Key Points Relating to Insurance Coverage and Access. Okay, She Lied About NAFTA, She Lied About Facing Gunfire in Bosnia, And Now She Tells an Apparently Inaccurate Story to "Move" People About Healthcare Reform. This is a Person Who Achieves Results? Or Just Tells Paul Bunyan Tales?

Now that you have been baptized by nonsensical blather, here is what many of us have taken an oath to do. Ignore, ignore, ignore. You can do that and not fall for the bait. She is a compulsive control freak (is that sexist?)trying to pass for an intellectual. You can do it. Blessings

You know how ballistic Joan went with the "typical white woman" no brainer. The along came Sniper gate and tax gate and false hospital story gate and NAFTA gate. Joan is characteristically quiet on all that.

I hope that after Obama wins the nomination that Joan will have the good sense to step away from her editorializing the GE. She will have to eat a lot of crow and will not be able to do Obama the Democrat any justice as he runs against McCain
