Schmidt: I'm not for a nuclear waste DUMP!
Rep. Jean Schmidt had a few choice words about her Democratic opponent's recent claims that Schmidt supports a nuclear waste dump at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion plant in Piketon, as Victoria Wulsin is claiming in her new radio ad.
"I just want to get it clear with you that I am not in favor of a dump," Schmidt said in an interview today. "I don’t know how much more clear I can be that I am only advocating a study because the folks in that region want a study."

Schmidt said, as was explained in the Enquirer story, that she neither supports nor opposes the plant, she just thinks it would be a good idea to study the possibility.
"The folks came to me in that town and asked for that study. It should not be my decision," Schmidt said, adding that Wulsin supports the same thing, according to a letter Wulsin wrote to union members at the plant.
"What she said in that letter is exactly what I am in favor of," Schmidt said.

Post a Comment*She was against it before she was for it.
Well...good! Even Jean realizes that Dr Vick has the best ideas now.
How do you spell L-O-S-T?
As in wandering aimlessly...as in election...
Jean is just creating a stampede to Wulsin now....word here is that come Election day, Wulsin comfortabley wins (5-7 points).
Take a look at Ms. Wulsin's real work on behalf of Piketon. What a hypocrit!
www.whiskey-tango.blogspot.com
Wulsin has already been caught lying about the nuclear waste dump. It is very clear from her letter to the unions that she supports the study proposed in Pike County. It is also very clear in the letter from the United Steelworkers to Wulsin that there is no nuclear waste dump. In fact the United Steelworkers state in a letter to Congresswoman Schmidt "I appreciate very much the fact that you have consistently expressed your strong opposition to Piketon becoming a so-called "waste dump".
Now maybe Wulsin can address these new charges:
This morning, Dr. Robert Baratz, on behalf of the National Council Against Health Fraud, requested that the State Medical Board of Ohio conduct an investigation into the activities of Dr. Victoria Wells (Wulsin)—who is also in the final week of a campaign against Republican incumbent Jean Schmidt in the race for second congressional district seat.
….. Baratz’s letter to the medical board included the following:
Activities which we feel merit discipline include, but are not limited to:
Participation in unsupervised, unapproved, and dangerous experiments involving human beings where serious diseases were left untreated akin to the notorious Tuskegee experiments. Wells participated with the Heimlich Institute, Henry Heimlich, The Deaconess Associations of Cincinnati, and other parties in these experiments. Further, when Wells became aware of the nature of these deviant and immoral acts she failed to reveal them to proper authorities, and thus became complicit in them. Numerous journalistic reports and release of a report on this work by Wells herself document her involvement and the experiments themselves. The experiments violate 21 CFR 50 and 56 and 45 CFR 46 and appear to involve lack of informed consent, use of unapproved biological agents, and other unprofessional conduct.
After Wells’ activities became known, she altered the records of her report in an attempt to mislead the public as to her true role.
Recently television advertising depicts Wells in a laboratory coat with a stethoscope in a medical facility suggesting to the public she is a practicing physician. In response to interviews and questions conducted by the Cincinnati Enquirer on October 20, 2006 Wells admitted she has not seen a patient in approximately five years “My most recent clinical work was at the Health Resource Center in Over-the-Rhine from 1998 to 2001.”
The so-called Heimlich Malariotherapy experiments involve the injection of malarial parasites into humans for the alleged treatment of cancer, Lyme disease, and HIV infection. They have been disclaimed by numerous medical authorities, including the Centers for Disease Control, and exposed by the Los Angeles Times, New York Times, and numerous other media.
Baratz has asked for this investigation under Section 4731.22 of the Ohio Revised Code.
Here we go again the misleading mean jean would prefer to call it a reprocessing plant !
Bottom line the nuclear waste will be housed there.
The glowing idea will be as bright as mean jeans visionary decision to purchase a GM product to help her convince Ford to remain in the transmission business within the 2nd district !
lol, lol, lol
PATHETIC !
HAD ENOUGH, VOTE DEMOCRAT 2006 !
Wulsin's ad is an outrage, and a flat out lie.
And, it is appalling that the Enquirer assisted her with perpetuating lies, by getting the story wrong on Sunday, editorial cartooning it wrong on Tuesday, and blogging it wrong all week.
"I was FOR the nuclear waste dump before I was against it."
Schmidt is SO stupid, I don't even know where to begin.
First, I'm pretty confident that she recently received took money from a company with a financial interest in storing nuclear waste in the 2nd District...
Second, we can't believe ANYTHING she says anymore. First, we are told she has a college degree. Then we learn she doesn't. But what does she SAY?
"The people who build my web site caused that error."
We all know the truth... she's been lying about the degree for 16 years, long before Al Gore invented the internet.
As a conservative, I'm just sick of Republicans who lack the personal integrity and intelligence necessary for public service.
Jean Schmidt, you are humiliating your district. Please resign if you manage to overcome Wulsin's 3% lead on election day.
Second, how can we believe ANYTHING
And, why would reading the Enquirer's Sunday story on this get people up to speed, Malia?
The Enquirer's Sunday story was WRONG.
I was for it before I was against it!
Schmidt, I denounce thee. Usually by the time a campaign becomes all about - I am NOT for a nuclear waste dump, it's too late. 'ya done f'ed up, hon.
Mr Speaker!, Cowards cut and run, but the citizens living near My Nuclear Waste DUMP - will NEVER run. Ever again. *flipper flipper, under the ocean*
BizzyBlog said... The Wulsin ad is, at the very least, a successful Ohio Election Commission complaint waiting to happen.
The Schmidt people really have a lot of experience with the Ohio Election Commission. You need to stop whining and ask Jean to discuss her accomplishments since being elected to congress. I have yet to hear Jean or the RNC discuss any accomplishments.
Why does Victoria pay her son to be on her campaign staff? Talk about being a liberal from Indian Hill!
I am one of "the folks in that town," in fact I live on the fence line of the DOE site where Schmidt not only has supported the siting of a high-level waste dump, but helped conceived the idea.
The full history has been reported in the pages of the Pike County News Watchman since August, which unfortunately is not available online.
If it looks like a dump and it quakes like a dump, it's a dump. Schmidt has proposed above-ground sttorage of spent nuclear fuel rods imported from all over the world. Now she tries to say that because this facility would keep the rods above ground, it's not "disposal" hence not a "dump."
Well Jean, we're not going to dump you on Tuesday, we're just going to place you in long-term non-retrievable above-ground storage. Feel better?
In the 10 months since Schmidt first proposed this lunatic idea in the pages of a Dayton newspaper (we don't read Dayton papers in Pike County), Schmidt has done nothing to inform, consult, warn or elicit the opinions of her constituents who live in the vicinity of the site.
Her "folks" include only the managers of the companies that stand to gain from the proposal, and the directors of the Chamber of Commerce." Had she told us and asked our opinion she would have gotten a resounding NO.
In fact, more than a thousand local residents have signed a petition saying NO, the text of which is available on the website of the Southern Ohio Neighbors Group at www.OhioNeighbors.org
Pike County residents are united in saying: GET THAT SCHMIDT OUT OF HERE!
