Personal Health Records ^

Posted on 02/03/2016 7:58:09 AM PST by Virtuoso80

Veterans have come out against Sarah Palin after she said in a speech on Wednesday that PTSD caused her son Track’s alleged domestic abuse

‘As a combat vet, EXTREMELY disgusted by #SarahPalin blaming PTSD 4 domestic abuse,’ wrote one man on Twitter

Another said: ‘Speaking as a combat vet who literally slept in the same barracks as Track Palin, his mother is wrong and her son is not a victim’

Paul Rieckhoff, who heads Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, also criticized Palin for blaming the incident on President Obama

Brandon Friedman, former digital media director for the Department of Veterans Affairs, criticized Palin for not mentioning the victim of the attack

Palin is now a byword. When it looked likely she was endorsing Trump, I prayed the Spirit would show her the huge mistake she was making and she would back out.

I will willingly and publicly apologize for all the derogatory things I said to Trump supporters if they just come to there senses right now.

I wonder how much alcohol had to do with this episode? Leave it out of the equation
and would the violence have happened?

True.

“Controversial” is MSM code for “conservative.”

and

“Lash out” is when a “controversial” candidate says anything about anything.

I’ve never noticed Hillary “lashing out” against anything.

She always “responds” to “controversial critics who lashed out” and “slammed” her.

This is an honest question.

Do you feel Goldman Sachs is part of the NWO?

An objective look at it:

First, nobody had to question her about her son’s arrest...she brought it up herself in a political rally, during her speech. Nothing to ‘steer clear’ of but herself.

As far as Track’s mental health is concerned - As part of outprocessing from the military, soldiers are asked about all aspects of their health, to include mental, as part of the paperwork for disability claims. If Track has no prior history of PTSD, no prior declarations to commanders, outprocessing staff, or VA staff that he had issues, well its a little too convenient to bring it up now. I don’t know if he has or not...nor should I. But this brings up the next question - why is his mother announcing his medical condition to the world at a political rally?

I can very much understand why veterans groups did not like the term being ‘thrown out there’, in the manner it was.

Yes, probably. Tacitly if not explicitly.

Good. That was a vicious slur on vets. The fact that he can’t control himself is not a PTSD issue.

It is a cross section, true, but it does skew towards men and women from the Bible Belt, and the vast majority of pictures of dead men from the last 15 years seem to be white or hispanic.

Okay. So if Goldman Sachs is part of the NWO...then how do you square the fact that Cruz campaign chairman founded a firm that is a global advisor for Goldman Sachs. A firm that is filled with who’s who in the intelligence world.

She sullied her Conservative cred.
But this is just a Mom embarrassed by her son’s behavior.
Still, should have thought before she said it.

Right.

What’s needed, here, is a lexicon of Big Media propaganda words and phrases. There’s enough of it, almost, to constitute a whole new language.

Perhaps we need a name for this new language.

Perhaps we could call it “Newspeak” ...

Only thread I ever had pulled was on this matter a couple of days after she talked about her son.

Be interesting to see how long this survives

You believe Cruz is a NWO stooge? That’s a hard sale. He could easily have slipped into the NE NWO elitist crowd if that’s what he wanted. Instead, he’s been defending conservative principals in court.

Sarah is 100% correct in stating the effects of PTSD.

Only someone with an IQ less than plant life would deny the relationship.

So let’s look at the connection.

You think Goldman is part of NWO.
A firm filled with high level intelligence world figures is a global advisor for Goldman Sachs.
Heidi worked for Goldman.
Cruz campaign chairman worked for what people call Clandestine Service (CIA) among other things.

He co founded the firm who advises Goldman Sachs.

And you don’t think it is possible given that close connection that Cruz a stooge of NWO?

Thanks, I agree. I thought she was asked about it, but she should have left it alone, regardless.

Got it some unnamed sources and ONE Radical leftist front group pretending to be a “Vets” group.

Let take a look at that one on the record source.

The leader of IAVA biggest priority was repeal of “Don’t ask Don’t tell” and full acceptance of homosexuality in the military. On Fox News last week he was forced to admit he thinks Hillary Clinton is the best candidate on Vets issues.

Think that pretty much explains the agenda of IAVA.

IAVA raised $6 million last year and spent only $80,000 on helping Vets. IAVA is nothing but a PR front for a Leftist political action group.
