Accretive Health Debt Collector Defends Embedding Employees Inside Hospitals
Accretive Health, a debt-collection company under fire from Minnesota and federal officials for aggressive tactics to squeeze money from hospital patients, is striking back at critics.
In a rebuttal to accusations made by Minnesota Attorney General Lori Swanson (D), Accretive Health flatly denied it has violated federal or Minnesota laws governing debt collection and patient privacy and said its role in hospitals is to help patients find ways to pay for their medical care. "We are proud of what we do," the company said in 29-page report issued Friday evening. "Patients appreciate the education, expertise, and compassion that we provide."
Accretive Health has been battered in Minnesota, Washington, and on Wall Street since Swanson published a six-volume report on her website last month alleging that the Chicago-based company demanded that emergency room patients pay before receiving medical care, that collectors visited patients' bedsides asking for money, and that collectors employed harsh and deceptive tactics. Democratic lawmakers and federal agencies have made inquiries and Accretive Health shares lost more than half their value before rebounding after the company reported positive earnings Thursday.

Bachmann: Obama a ‘health care dictator’ for contraception mandate
By David Edwards
Friday, April 6, 2012 10:59 EDT
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN), who calls herself “a high-value target for the Democrats,” says that President Barack Obama is a “health care dictator” because his administration is mandating that all insurance plans cover contraception for women.
In a recent interview with PolitiChicks, the former Republican presidential candidate told Ann-Marie Murrell that the eventual GOP nominee would be “1000 percent” better than Obama, no matter who that person was.
“We can’t let Obama have a second term,” she warned. “Not because it’s partisan, not because it’s the Republican team versus the Democrat team, but because we are about a better America and we’re about liberty and we’re about a decent chance for the future.”
“I think the number one threat right now is that under Obamacare, we literally are seeing a change in government for the first time in 225 years,” Bachmann explained. “This is the first time that we are moving truly away from a constitutional republic — slamming the door shut on a constitutional republic — and effectively we’re becoming a dictatorship in that we don’t elect a president anymore, we elect a health care dictator, who we saw with Barack Obama with contraceptives.”
“If you look at this issue, it wasn’t just about contraceptives. It was about the fact that now the president of the United States can order all Americans to purchase a product or service against their will whether they want it or not. And he can decide which product or service will be offered and at what price. That’s unbelievable!”
Bachmann added that Obama had been “more dangerous than any other president” because of his foreign policy.
“We’re seeing a hyperkinetic level of level of terrorist activity and Barack Obama has a lot to do with that,” she said, cautioning of the threat of Iranian weaponry “penetrating our southern border.”
“Even today, the president of the United States is calling for reducing our nuclear weaponry by 80 percent,” Bachmann noted. “OK, now think of this: We have Iran, a third-world basket case, trying to nuke up.”
The Minnesota congresswoman went on to plead with viewers to give her re-election campaign the maximum contribution because she had been “the number one target of [House Minority Leader] Nancy Pelosi to defeat.”
“I am a high-value target for the Democrats,” she remarked. “This race unfortunately will be no different. … I need all of your viewers to give the very best donation that they can give — and I think the maximum is about $2,500 per person.”

Minnesota Republicans (and Democrats) resist Fiscal TAR
MN GOP CD6 Chair David FitzSimmons
As if it were not bad enough that members of this writer's Republican Party voted for NDAA, this past weekend rank and file Republicans suffered another betrayal at the hands of our party elite.
This Past Saturday, April 14, 2012, this writer served as a delegate at Minnesota CD6 Republican Convention at the Mounds Views Community Center in Mounds View, Minnesota.
As this writer’s regular readers know, for the past 3+ years this writer has submitted articles regarding the failure of various Government institutions to provide citizens with financial information which is supposed to be a matter of public record:

http://exm.nr/IzEKVg
And for these past 3 years, Wright County has not provided, nor have any of my state elected officials been able to force Wright County to give me all of the information this author has requested. Not my State Senator or Representative, Not the State Auditor nor the State Attorney General.
Not even the MN IPAD http://www.ipad.state.mn.us
The State IPAD agreed that this writer was entitled to the information and said they would prepare a legal brief to that affect. However, this writer would have to hire and attorney and sue the County for the
information in Court.

We can thank all of our duplicitous elected State officials, Republican and Democrat alike, for providing all municipal entities with a way to avoid giving citizens information which is supposed to be a matter public record.
To defeat the duplicity of our elected officials, In 2010 this writer submitted approximately this TAR (Transparency, Accountability and Reform) resolution to his local precinct. It passed but somehow got lost
in the process to be added to the Republican Platform.
“Requiring all Minnesota Municipalities (Cities, Counties,
Schools, etc) to post their budgets and actual revenues and spending on
the internet in layman’s terms with no aggregates over one hundred
dollars.”
Now, at this point, this writer asks the reader if they would think that any elected official working in the best interests of rank and file Americans would have any problem enacting such legislation; especially
given that this financial information is supposed to be public record.
Keep that answer in mind while you read the rest of this article.
In pursuing adoption of this resolution and subsequent legislation, this writer had the 1st Principles of the
Founding Fathers in mind:
The fundamental understanding our US Founding Fathers had in
drafting our constitution, is People under Natural Law have free will,
and are not virtuous by nature. Therefore, governments must be
constructed in anticipation of the nature of man. Acting on this
knowledge, our Founding Fathers built into our Government and
Constitution, various checks and balances.
Amongst these checks and balances were transparency and
accountability. All of our problems today emanate from the slow,
persistent rolling back of the checks and balances, transparency and
accountability our Founding Fathers built into our Government and
Constitution.
http://bit.ly/nLIqPn
Yet somehow, Amy Koch, then the Senate Majority leader and my State Senator would not even try to author or pass this bill. Senator Koch just stopped returning this writer’s calls and emails on this Fiscal
TAR. (Nor on my proposals for Judicial TAR) 2 Republicans Legislators flat out told me in confidence that no one in the Minnesota Legislature wants great transparency.
This year this writer again had substantially the same resolution passed at the precinct level, then passed forward at the Wright County BPOU level. Finally this writer attended the MN CD6 Convention as a
delegate to....

DANCING WITH SYSTEMIC CORRUPTION – KURT ZELLERS, SPEAKER OF THE MINNESOTA HOUSE
In Public School, we were all indoctrinated with the moral standard of absolute right & wrong. [e.g. Washington – I cannot tell a lie, I chopped down the cherry tree] And, we are led to believe that the vast majority of Americans, Especially our political leaders and Judges subscribe to that same high moral standard.
However, unless you have made repeated trips to the belly of the beast, you really can’t understand how our Government works (or doesn’t work). You only know politicians from handshaking, baby kissing, campaign ads and waving in parades. And of course, from what you were taught in public school.
Based on this, rank and file Americans assume that most politicians are good people with the best interests of WE THE PEOPLE at heart. And so, what this author is about to tell you may be hard to accept.
When you go into the belly of the beast and push an agenda or issue the politicians don’t like, you soon see another side of politicians.
Politicians to not subscribe to, nor practice a moral standard of
absolute right and wrong; Instead they practice a moral standard of
“Plausibly Deniabiliyt”. In essence, if you can’t prove it, they didn’t do it.
After a long wait, a sequence of events has occurred which is easy to
understand and serve as proofs to various assertions this writer has
made in this article and in previous articles. Among these are that the
Minnesota Judiciary and Legislature are systemically corrupt.
SEQUENCE OF EVENTS
For 20 years, this writer has pursued an agenda of Judicial TAR
(Transparency, Accountability and Reform) Over the past 7 years, with
the rising popularity of the internet; hundreds of Minnesotans have
found other like minded individuals. We have become organized.
For these past coming on 8 years, these hundreds of Minnesotans have
demanded to exercise their constitutional 1st Amendment Right to
petition the Government for redress of grievances. We have wanted to
give testimony and evidence of corruption in the Minnesota Judiciary.
The Minnesota State House and Senate Judiciary Committee chairpersons
for the now coming on 8 years have denied hundreds of Minnesotans said
hearings.
Having identified this writer as one of the Leaders of the Minnesota
Judicial TAR movement, various Legislatures and judges determined to
engage in unlawful and unconstitutional reprisal. There intent was to
demonize and discredit this writer in a similar manner of the FBI’s
operation COINTELPRO against Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.:
FINAL REPORT OF THE
SELECT COMMITTEE TO STUDY GOVERNMENTAL OPERATIONS
WITH RESPECT TO INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES TO
UNITED STATES SENATE
“From December 1963 until his death in 1968, Martin Luther King, Jr. was the target of....

Beware of the candidate of the mainstream media and the status quo! Ron Paul For liberty!

CAUCUS INVOCATION: Thank God we live in a country free of oppression?
This just past Saturday (3/10/2012) this author attended the Wright County MN BPU Convention in Buffalo Minnesota. (In a previous article, this author exhorted: Why you must attend your Caucus this year! http://bit.ly/AyRuGRaka walking the walk)
Among the items of business on the Agenda was an Invocation at about 9:30am.
As the author listened to the invocation, I heard words to this effect:
“Thank God we live in a country free of oppression.”
And this author found himself taking exception to this statement. It is not this author’s life experience that citizens of this country are free of oppression, suppression nor repression.
As the meeting continued, this author thought to himself, seeking just to go along to get along, perhaps the person giving the invocation has not been exposed to the oppression, suppression and repression that is America.

Perhaps the person who gave the invocation was merely thinking about the recent violence in Syria, Egypt, Libya and the long running oppression in North Korea. Or even China’s Tiananmen Square Tragic expression of Tyranny…
Trying to give the benefit of the doubt, the author postulated that perhaps the person who gave the invocation, was not familiar with the various kinds of oppression, suppression and repression.
But as hard as this author tried to let the statement go, something kept clawing at him to not let this misstatement stand unchallenged.
And so, in the early afternoon, this author privately asked the chair of the convention for 5 minutes as a point of personal privilege (Look it up in Robert’s Rules http://bit.ly/yjCYqc) for 5 minutes to address the misstatement.
This request was summarily denied. The Chair stating that oppression was a matter of opinion. But this author appealed to the parliamentarian who ruled, “A point of personal privilege is always in order”
Before a pause in the proceedings occurred that this author might force the chair and floor to hear my point of personal privilege, the recalcitrant chair announced (to CYA) that the “person who wished to express a point of personal privilege could address the floor”
With that, this author stepped to the nearest mike and did address the floor. However, this author does not think he did the point justice. But given the circumstances, this author did the best he could extemporaneously.
And, therefore, this would like to take this opportunity to put my thoughts on the alleged “lack of oppression in America” to writing. So here goes.
Oppression, Suppression and Repression comes in all forms, shapes and sizes. Many think of oppression coming at the point of a gun. While that ultimately is true in all circumstances, most suppression in America is presented in such a way so as to not cause WE THE PEOPLE to think our government is bad or evil. At least not as bad or evil as WE THE PEOPLE think due to the propaganda, media bias and indoctrination regarding Oppression in Countries such as Russia (Stalin’s Purge), China (Tiananmen Square), Iraq (Hussein’s Rape Squads), and the current situation in Syria.
WE THE PEOPLE, the rank and file citizens of America like to believe the fairytales about Oppression that we were indoctrinated with in Public School, and which are later supplemented with by a compliant, duplicitous and corruption enabling major media.
This author remembers how happy, secure in his person and superior he felt in the aftermath of his indoctrination in the public schools. Superior in the knowledge that our Country’s Government was honest and trustworthy unlike all the other Government in the world, especially the Communists. Happy and Secure in my person that my government, unlike other government in the world, made decisions based on the best interests of its citizens… Ah… ignorance is most assuredly bliss.
In a peremptory attempt to ward of a public lynching, this author again states that our government, is still the best form of government in the world, despite its current issues. But WE THE PEOPLE would be remiss to not weld ourselves to the truth rather than the fiction of what our government is and isn’t.
Our current elected officials have just stopped obeying Natural Law, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and common sense. And with that peremptory attempt to reduce the possibility of this author’s spontaneous lynching out of the way, here goes:
KENT STATE MASSACRE

No More Band aids - These 3 Resolutions moved on to MN CD6!
Last Saturday, (3/10/2012) this author attended the Wright County MN BPU Convention.
Among the items of business completed was the vote to move these three resolutions forward to the CD6 Convention.
While the candidates for President and other elected officers are out offering a myriad of promises ranging from jobs to free birth control, this delegate refuses from being distracted from the real issues facing America.
While arguments over free birth control during a crisis in which the government is on the brink of fiscal collapse and moral bankruptcy seem ill timed, even solutions to address some of the relevant problems are mere, ineffective band aids. Promising jobs and lower gas prices are not permanent solutions to the problems our government faces.
No candidate has offered solutions which are permanent in nature. Promising jobs and blaming the other party for spending to much or not taxing enough are not solutions.
In fact they are intended as distractions to for WE THE PEOPLE. Your elected officials do not want rank and file America making voting decisions based on their reckless spending and systemic corruption.
This author puts it to you, the reader, that these 3 resolutions actually strike at the root of the problems that are causing the economic and moral demises of America.
“There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root.”
Henry David Thoreau

Please join with this author and your fellow citizen in pressing these resolutions that we might restore our Constitution and Liberties. Please distribute and champion these Caucus Resolutions at your own Caucuses and Conventions.
Given the staggered natured of America’s primaries and caucuses, some of you have already had your precinct caucuses and some have not. (Even if you have a primary, there is a caucus) The Author encourages you to make double sided copies of these documents and distribute them at every caucus and convention you attend.

Bachmann: ‘Not true’ that people go without insurance because of the cost
By David Edwards
Friday, March 30, 2012 12:02 EDT
Rep. Michele Bachmann insisted this week that the reason 40 million Americans “choose” not to buy health care insurance has nothing to do with the cost.
Speaking to Fox News host Sean Hannity after attending Supreme Court arguments on Wednesday, the former Republican presidential candidate said that the Obama administration was wrong to suggest that insurance could be regulated because everyone would eventually be in the health care market.
“One argument that the government was trying to make is that somehow health care is uniquely different,” Bachmann explained. “That government can regulate it because everyone participates. Health insurance is not uniquely different.”
“It’s still an opportunity that some people choose to engage in, but 40 million people do not.”
She continued: “And the premise was made that people don’t buy insurance because they can’t afford it. That’s not true. There are people who just decide they want to roll the dice and take their chances that they won’t need insurance.”
Georgetown University’s Center for Children and Families found in 2009 that 66 percent thought Congress’ top priority should be making health care more affordable. In all, 44 percent of those polled said they had cut back on household spending in the previous two years as a result of health care costs.
The Kaiser Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured determined (PDF) in 2007 that 80 percent of those without health insurance were working families.
In 2010, Bachmann became the first lawmaker to introduce legislation to repeal President Barack Obama’s health care reform law.
As justices were hearing oral arguments on Monday, the Minnesota Republican stood on the steps in front of the Supreme Court and told several tea party groups that “this is the day that we have been waiting for!”
“We have not waved the white flag of surrender on socialized medicine!” she exclaimed. “This is one of the most important, consequential decisions that will ever come before this court. … We believe that the Constitution means something!”

MN GOP lawmaker compares food stamp recipients to wild animals
By Andrew Jones
Saturday, March 3, 2012 12:15 EST
One Republican lawmaker in Minnesota expressed a peculiar but existing belief in GOP circles Friday afternoon, claiming that food stamps recipients are virtually similar to feeding wild animals.
State Rep. Mary Franson released a Youtube video describing her hopes of reducing the amount of time residents in Minnesota could stay on food stamps from five years to three.
“And here, it’s kind of ironic, I’ll read you this little funny clip that we got from a friend,” she said. “It says, ‘Isn’t it ironic that the food stamp program, part of the Department of Agriculture, is pleased to be distributing the greatest amount of food stamps ever. Meanwhile, the Park Service, also part of the Department of Agriculture, asks us to please not feed the animals, because the animals may grow dependent and not learn to take care of themselves.”
Franson is not the first Republican to make this comparison. In 2010, then South Carolina Lieutenant Governor Andre Bauer said exactly the same thing.
According to the USDA, Todd County in Franson’s district contains one of Minnesota’s highest poverty rates, with 16.9 precent of residents in 2010.

Minnesota Governor Vetoes Shadowy ALEC Bills, Calls Them Out by Name
If you’re not familiar with ALEC, they are super-secret council, funded by several of America’s corporate overlords, namely the Koch brothers, as well as companies in the food, tobacco, insurance, health care, and energy sectors. Their method of operation is to write what’s called “model legislation” behind closed doors, and then filter that legislation out to the state level, where an ALEC-backed politician can claim “authorship” of the bill and introduce it to the legislature for voting.

Santorum: Romney and Obama both created ‘death panels’
By David Edwards
Monday, February 6, 2012 14:24 EST
Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum on Monday asserted that former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney was “uniquely unqualified” for the GOP nomination because of the similarities between health care laws in Massachusetts and President Barack Obama’s health care reforms, including the repeatedly debunked claim that “death panels” would ration care to seniors.
Speaking at a ballroom across the street from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, Santorum pointed to a report (PDF) from the the non-partisan organization Families USA that found at least 15 major similarities between Obama’s Affordable Care Act and the reforms Romney enacted in Massachusetts.
“Both create government panels to dictate quality and cost containment,” Santorum explained. “Some of you may be familiar with the Independent Payment Advisory Board — which is a board separate from Congress, independent of Congress — that President Obama created to control health care costs. How? By cutting reimbursements to doctors and hospitals under the Medicare program. Well, Gov. Romney has a similar program called the Council on Health Quality and Costs.”
“Some people refer to these types of boards as death panels,” he added. “Why? Because they ultimately decide to ration care to those procedures and people because they don’t believe these procedures are effective in providing care, that the utilization isn’t worth the costs.”
“So, again, you have government making decisions and rationing and apportioning care based on research that shows what outcomes are dictated by the research that’s out there.”
In 2009, Politifact named “death panels,” a term thought to have been first used by former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R), as their “Lie of the Year.”

Bachmann’s husband: Kinsey’s research on homosexuality is a ‘myth’
By Andrew Jones
Monday, December 19, 2011
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) received another uncomfortable moment on the campaign trail about her anti-gay views Sunday evening.
According to CNN, the congresswoman and her husband Marcus encountered Kathy Schnell, a woman wearing a Bachmann sticker and holding up a sign saying “Gay-friendly Iowan.”
While smiling to sign the poster, Bachmann asked “Gay-friendly Iowan?”
Schnell proceeded to pick Bachmann’s brain on the number of America gays.
“I wonder if you’re aware that 10% of the population is gay?” she said. “And if you have 28 children, then 2.8 of those kids are very likely gay.”
Thinking that the GOP presidential candidate wasn’t listening to her, Schnell told her friend “She’s not listening to me.”
That prompted Bachmann to reply, “Well, that’s according to the Kinsey Report.”
A few seconds later, her husband Marcus jumped in and told Schnell, “Your facts are wrong.”
“That’s not valid?” Schnell replied back.
“No it isn’t,” he said. “No, it’s not at all. It’s been a myth for many years.”
The Kinsey reports are based on the two books written by Dr. Alfred Kinsey about human sexual behavior in 1948 and 1953. It is widely considered groundbreaking research that helped change popular perceptions about the size and make-up of America’s LGBT population.
This isn’t the first time Bachmann has been confronted on the campaign trail about her views on LGBT rights and the community at large.”
Two weeks ago, Bachmann encountered a 8-year-old who told her, “My mommy’s gay but she doesn’t need any fixing.”
