 <title>Jean Schmidt, Already Mean, Is Getting Desperate</title>
 <link>http://buckeyestateblog.com/jean_schmidt_already_mean_is_getting_desperate</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Good old “Mean” Jean Schmidt is up to her dirty tricks again. She’s sent out  a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ohiovalleypolitics.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/schmidtletter.pdf&quot;&gt;somewhat  desperate fundraising letter&lt;/a&gt; (PDF) in which she attack her opponent, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.wulsinforcongress.com/&quot;&gt;Victoria Wulsin&lt;/a&gt;, over her work in a  controversial malaria research program.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wulsin&amp;#39;s contempt for the culture of life has even led her to participate in  grotesque medical experiments. Wulsin was paid for her work in medical &amp;quot;studies&amp;quot;  where victims of AIDS in Africa and China were, without their consent, injected  with the malaria virus, all in the name of &amp;quot;scientific  inquiry.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Of course, Schmidt doesn’t mention that Wulsin’s involvement in the project  consisted of &lt;a href=&quot;http://ohiodailyblog.com/content/oh-02-schmidt-r-shows-fear-embraces-debunked-quotmalariotherapyquot-smear&quot;&gt;consultant  work&lt;/a&gt;. She was later fired for claiming the research wasn’t needed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Besides, a person that calls a 27 year Marine Corp. veteran and Purple Heart  recipient &lt;a href=&quot;http://politicalwire.com/archives/2005/11/18/schmidt_makes_potentially_career_ending_speech.html&quot;&gt;a  coward on the House floor&lt;/a&gt; has no right to take the moral high ground.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you want to leave it to medical issues, Schmidt still fails. Remember her  reaction to Walter Reed? She said it &lt;a href=&quot;http://thinkprogress.org/2007/03/20/jean-schmidt-walter-reed-scandal-overblown/&quot;&gt;was  overblown&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In case you missed the link above, you can &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ohiovalleypolitics.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/schmidtletter.pdf&quot;&gt;download  Schmidt’s letter as a PDF here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
