You are not telling the truth.
Medical Records are not to be released to the public, period.
And, Wolf made clear they were all gun shot victims. How many of those are there?
And the dates were on the X-Rays.
Yes, you should know better, which means you are not telling the truth.
Roberts OWNS a home in Dodge City which Roberts rents to someone else.
You are not telling the truth at all.
You must go fishing with Roberts, to get all bent out of shape like you are. Sheesh. Have a nice day.
HUH? So you think someone who does not own real estate and rents can not serve?
Roberts owns a home that he rents out.
Roberts, himself, rents another room elsewhere.
So what?
Individually identifiable health information is information, including demographic data, that relates to:
the individuals past, present or future physical or mental health or condition,
the provision of health care to the individual, or
the past, present, or future payment for the provision of health care to the individual,
and that identifies the individual or for which there is a reasonable basis to believe it can be used to identify the individual.13 Individually identifiable health information includes many common identifiers (e.g., name, address, birth date, Social Security Number).
The Privacy Rule excludes from protected health information employment records that a covered entity maintains in its capacity as an employer and education and certain other records subject to, or defined in, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, 20 U.S.C. §1232g.
De-Identified Health Information. There are no restrictions on the use or disclosure of de-identified health information.14 De-identified health information neither identifies nor provides a reasonable basis to identify an individual. There are two ways to de-identify information; either: (1) a formal determination by a qualified statistician; or (2) the removal of specified identifiers of the individual and of the individuals relatives, household members, and employers is required, and is adequate only if the covered entity has no actual knowledge that the remaining information could be used to identify the individual.15”

The Tea Party has done great things. It is a shame that many try to pick up the mantel of that generalized group and claim it for their own, without substance and accomplishments to back it up.
While Roberts has been a good Senator and had a good but not perfect adherence to conservative standards, he is certainly not a THAD.
Wolf made an interesting challenger when he was going to run on the issues. There are posters on this forum that have met him and we all hoped for the best. That being said, every news story about the challenge by Wolf is about smear and BS and not about conservative issues — those are the issues that would make Wolf a true representative of the Tea Party values.
I don’t live in Kansas any more as I did for decades, but if I did, I would have little cause so far to support Wolf.
Roberts is not a Cochran and neither is Wolf a Chris McDaniel who ran on the issues. Wolf must run on his ability to defend and represent the conservative values and that has not happened in the recent months.
Thanks. I have been reading, but not engaging. I don’t want to pick a fight with Kansas 58 who has good reason to support Roberts and I would probably do the same if I had experienced a similar set of circumstances.
The residency issue is certainly a valid one despite what the political guild has to say about it. Incumbents are protected like they are some national treasure. Roberts was essentially gifted his Congressional seat when Keith Sebelius retired, reward for his years of service on his staff. The fact that his father was the Chairman of the Republican National Committee certainly helped with all of that. He moved up to the Senate in the great Republican tradition of senority. He sees no need to live in Kansas, as Kansas 58 points out, perfectly legal for him to do so. It does matter to me as far too many of our elected representatives see political service as their birthright and career. The Democrats have practiced this scheme for years and our government is less effective because of it.
I’ll vote for Wolf. Roberts is not in real danger, at least not yet.
I wouldn’t be so sure of that he is not in danger. I know quite a few in Kansas that are disgusted with the Republican Party establishment as a whole. The Constitution continues to be run roughshod over and the establishment stands back and does nothing. Cruz and Palin have the cajones to speak out but the rest act too scared to upset the power applecart in DC.
The whole Thad Cochran debacle could spill over to other races with how disgusting the Republican establishment tried to protect their own with disgusting tactics. I was really disappointed to find out Roberts had given to Cochran’s campaign, which many probably do, but it was still disgusting what happened there, and with Roberts support.
