A Salute to Our Veterans

Commentary--

As a U.S. Naval veteran of the Korean Era, I wish to salute all veterans of all of our wars. Of the several jobs I held after discharge, I consider the most valued of all, and one which I did with pride, was the five years I spent as a job counselor for returning Viet-Nam Veterans. I counseled men with a variety of missing limbs, hands, and miscellaneous prosthetic devices. Some were understandably bitter, having returned to hateful anti-war demonstrators, but others demonstrated positive attitudes, as they returned to the job of finding work and starting or continuing with their families.

On this Memorial Day, 2012, I am seeing the Viet-Nam Veteran beginning to receive the public acknowledgement of his service, which had been denied for so long. Today, Viet-Nam veterans occupy many leadership positions in industry and government.

Sadly, today, some universities, and public schools, along with much of the news media, portray our current service men and women as less than honorable and deny them the respect that is rightfully theirs.

I hope the future bodes much better for our returning service men and women who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Former Attorney General Phill Kline seeks recusal of two Kansas justices

As I mentioned in the previous post, I have been following this story since 2007, when I began blogging. And as I also said, sooner or later the truth will come out about the corruption of the pro-choice, i.e., the abortion supporters in Kansas. And that time is near.

Kline seeks recusal of two Kansas justices

Former Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline plans to file a motion Tuesday seeking withdrawal of two state Supreme Court members from an ethics case that could result in the indefinite suspension of Kline's license to practice law.

The Topeka Capital-Journal learned the documents propose recusal of Chief Justice Lawton Nuss and Justice Carol Beier from considering a state panel's recommendation Kline be sanctioned for misconduct during criminal investigations of abortion providers.

Tom Condit, a Cincinnati attorney representing Kline, said in an interview Nuss should step aside because Kline was involved as attorney general in a 2006 inquiry into Nuss' violation of three canons of the professional code for judges. Nuss' private conversation with two senators about a school-finance case pending before the state's highest court was deemed inappropriate. Read full article in The Topeka Capital-Journal (CJOnline).

As reported in September 2009, Beier's witch hunt against Kline included his former asistant, Stephen Maxwell.

Beier's apparent vendetta against Kline now extends to his former assistant

The threat by Kansas Supreme Court justice Carol Beier to bring ethics charges against her nemesis, former Attorney General Phill Kline, was apparently broadened Monday to include Kline's former assistant, Stephen Maxwell.

A Supreme Court administrator served Maxwell with a formal complaint alleging Maxwell violated several ethics rules. The complaint was written by Stanton Hazlett, disciplinary administrator. The Board for Discipline of Attorneys is an entity within the Kansas Supreme Court. If Maxwell cannot successfully refute the charge, Beier, who is up for retention in 2010, will be one of the justices who decides his fate. Source: Kansas Liberty.

The truth will out, and this blog will be watching future developments in this persecution of Phill Kline by abortion supporters.

The State of Kansas owes former Attorney General Phill Kline a Front Page Apology.

Rick's note. I've been following this story since 2007, when I began blogging. This, as I predicted, is finally coming to light. The corrupt pro-choice, i.e., pro-abortion forces of Kansas have done everything they could to damage Phill Kline's reputation due to his relentless investigation and prosecution of illegal activities of the abortion clinics. Thanks to Operation Rescue, and other organizations, I, and other pro-life web sites have been able to get the facts the pro-abortion media in Wichita, Topeka, and Kansas City have been deliberately covering up.

Documents Show Abortion Clinic Not Reporting Sexual Abuse

New documents obtained by a pro-life group reveal that Central Family Medical, a Kansas City abortion clinic also known as Aid for Women, routinely does not report suspected abuse on women and minors who seek abortions.

Yesterday, Operation Rescue released redacted images of the Supplemental Termination of Pregnancy reports from the abortion facility that show the forms are pre-printed to include a “No” answer in a question on the form asking if a report of suspected abuse was filed. In addition to the incriminating forms, Operation Rescue also released redacted samples of other sensitive private medical information related to abortions on 86 women during the single month of April, 2012.

Operation Rescue has filed complaints with the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, and the Kansas State Board of Nursing seeking a full investigation and calling for the emergency closure of Central Family Medicine.

The documents follow on a 2003 investigation started by former Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline, who launched an investigation into Kansas abortion clinics on the information that abortion clinics were failing to report child sex abuse. Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, now U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services, thwarted Kline’s investigation at every turn and eventually took aggressive steps that ultimately made it impossible for him to pursue the abuse non-reporting aspect of his investigation.

Kline was later brought up on ethics charges for his handling of heavily redacted abortion records obtained under subpoena after three years of legal battles by the clinics. Pro-life groups, including Operation Rescue, believe Kline’s ethics case was politically motivated to protect abortion clinics from criminal prosecution. Read more at LifeNews.com.

Pro-abortion supporters from former governor Kathleen Sebelius, some justices from the Kansas Supreme Court, and others have misrepresented, and even lied about former Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline in order to destroy his credibility, and to intimidate any future law enforcement agent from daring to challenge the sacred cow of the Democrats, Abortion on demand. As Mr. Ertelt brings out, one of Klines objectives was to protect children, ie., girls under age 15, from statutory rape, which the abortion clinics were not reporting to the state, as required by state law.
