[Madison, WI] As tens of thousands of public employees skipped work this week to attend protest rallies outside the Wisconsin State Capitol, many wondered if they would face any disciplinary action for unexcused absences. On Saturday, a group of men and women in lab coats purporting to be doctors were handing out medical excuse notes, without examining the "patients." "I asked this doctor what he was doing and he told me they were handing out excuses to people who were feeling sick due to emotional, mental or financial distress," said Christian Hartsock. "They never performed an exam-he asked me how I was feeling today and I said I'm from California and I'm not used to the cold, so he handed me a note." Another woman, who wished to remain anonymous, said they were handing out excuses like they were leaflets. "I asked if they were handing out doctors' excuses and a guy said yes and asked me if I needed one," she said. "When I told them I needed one for February 16 and 17th, he wondered if I wanted to come back here for the protests next week." What happened next? "I said, 'sure,' and I received a doctor's note for the 16th through the 25th of February, without a medical exam." The notes read Feb 19, 2011 Patient57;s name______ Date of birth ____/_____/_____ To Whom it May Concern: This is confirm I have seen and evaluated the above named patient. Please excuse from work/school due to a medical condition from ____/____/____ through Please contact me at badgerdoctors@gmail.com if additional information is needed. Thank you. Sincerely, Physician Signature: Physician Name WI license number Based on an examination of the signature and medical license number provided, one of the men handing out these notes was purporting to be James H Shropshire MD, a Clinical Associate Professor at the University Wisconsin Madison. At this time, MacIver News Service is attempting to contact Dr. Shropshire to see if indeed he was the one handing out the notes on the Capitol Square.

Right on. Good for him.
You're not an honest person are you? You support lying? Isn't witchcraft the art of deceiving and deception?
James O'Keefe would be proud: Since January 3, 2011, Republicans have controlled the power of the purse.
Isn't witchcraft the art of deceiving and deception?" Fuck off. I was suspended for four days for going to an anti-Vietnam War demonstration on the New Haven Green and missing high school that day. Some provided fake doctor's or parental notes to stay out of trouble, but I told the truth. My position on the issue is that Governor is a dick head, and I support collective bargaining and I like Unions. As far as those going to protest engaging in white lies, that is on them. Myself, I would be happy to say exactly where I was and would not use an excuse slip. And were I to be in that state I'd go protest that bill. Stop fucking with me on the basis of my religion, asshole.
In case anybody is interested in what's really happening. Here's some information about the MacIver Institute: In December the domain maciverinstitute.com was privately registered with no one willing to lay public claim to the new org. They also have set up a super duper secret Twitter account that you can’t follow without special permission. When I visited their actual website last night, it was still largely lacking substance. Right now I am having problems accessing it but here is a cached version. The site did give some important information however. It gave a glimpse of some of the people involved with this operation - a motley crew indeed. First you have Scott Jensen who still is awaiting his second criminal felony trial. Then you have Michael Dean, from the wild-eyed First Freedoms Foundation, listed as a contact person. Listed as treasurer for the org is Mark Block, the guy that got the stiffest penalty for political campaign violations ever handed down in the state. This new right wing org is also listed on a national directory and it lists Block as also being a contact for the organization. Speaking of Mark Block, he posted an interesting entry on his Twitter account on January 30, 2009 at 3:18pm. I’m wondering if that Tweet inadvertently tells us a few more things about this new right wing outfit. It states the following: “Klauser and Grebe will be calling meeting for Saturday, March 7th. Very important.” Klauser is of course a long-time disciple of former Governor Tommy Thompson and Grebe is surely the right wing Bradley Foundation sugar daddy Michael Grebe. Michael Grebe and the Bradley Foundation are notoriously partisan and have funded some of the most extreme and narrow right wing outfits in the country. The doctor on the form they show in the video is James H. Shropshire. A lookup of his political contributions shows $200 to Russ Feingold in 2000 and $200 to the DNC in 1998. Otherwise, nothing. The MacIver "news wire" has an interesting quote, however: On Saturday, a group of men and women in lab coats purporting to be doctors were handing out medical excuse notes, without examining the ‘patients.’ “I asked this doctor what he was doing and he told me they were handing out excuses to people who were feeling sick due to emotional, mental or financial distress,” said Christian Hartsock. “They never performed an exam–he asked me how I was feeling today and I said I’m from California and I’m not used to the cold, so he handed me a note.” Looks like Christian Hartsock is just an ordinary guy, eh? Well, he's not. Christian Hartsock, 24, is a director, screenwriter, producer and political columnist and activist. He earned his B.A. in Film and Video Production from Brooks Institute in Santa Barbara and currently produces, directs, and writes films including the music video for Guns 'N Roses' "Sorry," as well as the conservative rap music video Victicrat and the short film Sycophant which he wrote and directed, as well as the award-winning feature film The Lives of Better Men which he produced. Hartsock directed the undercover investigation video Teachers Unions Gone Wild which exposed sleaze and corruption in the New Jersey Education Association, earning the accolades of Governor Chris Christie, produced B-roll for James O'Keefe's and Hannah Giles' investigation videos that brought down ACORN, exposed anti-Americanism at the UN Climate Summit in Cancun and continues to work on investigative journalism videos. He's traveled to Iraq with Move America Forward to document the Iraq war and was profiled in CNN's documentary Right on the Edge a documentary about young conservative activists hosted by Abbie Boudreau. He currently writes for several news and commentary websites, including Big Government and Big Journalism, and is Editor-in-Chief of Political Vanguard. So we're clear on this, Christian Hartsock, the guy "interviewed" and also the guy who probably produced that first video is the same guy who helped out with the smears of ACORN and New Jersey teachers, and he works for Andrew Breitbart. Breitbart has bragged about being at the protests in Wisconsin today. Americans for Prosperity is linked to the MacIver Institute. A Breitbart video smear guy is quoted in an article smearing teachers. Figure it out. Update: Think Progress has much more on the MacIver Institute: MacIver Institute: The MacIver Institute is a think thank that bills itself as “the free market voice for Wisconsin.” On April 9, its website, referring to the Voter Protection Act, warned that “a massive push to facilitate voter fraud” was underway and called on the public to “act soon.” It followed up with another warning on April 13 about the “vote fraud bill on fast track.” After the Voter Protection Act died, an “Open Letter to Wisconsin Tea Partiers” posted on its website thanked them for their hard work in defeating the “Alinsky brigade” and its efforts to pass clean energy and “election deform” legislation. And in a May 10 post entitled “Tea Party Impact Ongoing,” a checklist of Wisconsin Tea Party accomplishments included “Stop Vote Fraud legislation.” The MacIver Institute has numerous ties to the ‘Kochtopus.’ Mark Block, the AFP Wisconsin state director and a key figure in the alleged voter suppression plot, sits on MacIver’s board of directors. MacIver and AFP Wisconsin also share two other board members, David Fettig and Fred Luber. MacIver also works closely with AFP Wisconsin as part of the Wisconsin Prosperity Network, along with another group with ties to Koch funding, American Majority. The think tank also participates in the Koch-funded Institute for Humane Studies’ Koch Summer Fellows Program and is a member of the Koch-funded State Policy Network.
Yes- witchcraft is the art of deception. It is true. When this thing shakes out, if of those notes are connected with real medical personnel, they will lose their license. And if people turn in fake notes- they will lose their job. The truth will prevail in the end, over anyone who is greedy enough to fall for deception. That is why the liberal are in the trouble they are in now. Because their greed did them in.
Whose greed? You make no sense. Think about it.
Well just fookin DUH! You commies couldn't hold a real job any other way!
Of course he does, the teachers we blindly trusted with our most precious pocessions, our children, they support these lies, don't ever be deceived into thinking otherwise. What no one is talking about is, our Constitution gives the private workforce the right to collective bargaining and unionizing, many fought and died for that right, my family was among those who fought to unionize here in kentucky. But Nowhere in the Constitution does it give Anyone in the PUBLIC workforce the right to Unionize and Bully the Taxpayers, threatening to bring in the federal government an forcebly TAKE what they have not earned. They actually believe that Obama has all the power and the state has no say into this. Every state has their own 'collective barganing' table these (laughing called) teachers and public employees can set down with, negotiate with.... They ARE NOT highly trained Executives, or Elected officials who can demand Hollywood wages, outragious pensions, muliple paid vacations bonuses...ect from the American Taxpayer... THESE THEIVES AND THUGS WERE NOT 'ELECTED' TO TEACH IN OUR SCHOOLS, THEY WERE 'HIRED', TO DO A JOB, NOT ROB THE PEOPLE WHO TRUSTED THEM! THEY ARE (SELF- ANNOINTED-GLORIFIED) "PUBLIC SERVANTS" jmho! rant off!
This is for you in answer to all the shit you've posted about me, attempting to smear me, for whatever yours reasons may be. My life is winding down, so this will never be repeated. You think you know me now, but you know SQUAT! You brag about "planting a tree' somewhere, or you boast about what you did in the military...and so on. I planted things too, I planted 'ideas' into heads of people around me, I showed them that they did not have to just sit silently and do nothing. Over the years, with the help of local newspapers, and a local TV network, I took on Judges, Police Officers, Distric Attornies, our School system over their abuse of Social Security Numbers (and I won), and anyone else in the possition that intimidated the people and thought their own shit didn't stink. Along the way some of them sure turned up the heat on me, but I survived and it made me meaner than ever, and I fought hard. You think you know me because you know my name, well mr. man, then it won't be hard for you to dig even deeper and discover who I really was, it's all documented, and on pubic records for anyone to see. Some of you like to think of me as some 'pipesmoking', 'tobacco chewing' (YUCK) 'mammy', but you'll never really know what REBEL BITCH I was. Everytime I see a post like those anymore, I LMAO... It doesn't matter to me what you fight for, or that we disagree on most everything, what really matters is how hard each of us are willing to fight for what matters in our life, mine just happen to be my childen, and people who got the shit-end of deal and thought they had to live with it. JMHO! RebelGal
OH BTW Mike, that chair I could have used, I didn't get, and still don't have one, but that doesn't matter anymore, that should brighten your day anyway...I never knew anyone who would stoop as low as you to post something like that, now I do. Don't ever wonder why I feel towards you like I do...
Ferret Mike said he quit here because I am racist. Then he said he still has his 4um account open, but that he doesn't post there because it is a racist site. Then he said that is where he is going to post. Kinda weird huh?
Stone, I said that to you in PRIVATE MAIL. I don't blast Christine and her forum in open forum. Why don't you grow up? You have no respect for people's feelings or know how to keep that pie hole of yours' in check. I like Christine a great deal, and don't make it a practice to knock her forum in other venues. And I helped stop the threads knocking you and your forum on another forum because I thought the practice tawdry. You are a real asshole. First class.
And this is a great example of how little you comprehend about me. If you no longer need a chair because of improved health, it makes my day. And if you need it, I would very much like to see you get it to improve your quality of life. Just because I may have differences with people in forum does not mean I hate them personally or wish them badly. I stick to giving you as good as you give, and as I've been doing this a while and am an activist in real time you are hardly going to get the better of me. But if you stood down and merely agreed to disagree and stopped the feud aspect, I would stand down as well. I know that years ago when I was posting in th same place with RaisedEyeBrows and you were your first account name on eLPee, he really wanted to roast you real good and I argued against it well enough to back him off. Overall, it is a good thing to see you posting as it has made you a better writer and taught you a lot. I wish you health and happiness with many years ahead of you. I am anything but a mean person. Regardless of your opinion on this. If you ever need a chair, let me know, I'll ferret around and see what options I can find. I work as a volunteer front desk person at White Bird Clinic in Eugene, and in many ways, I actually like you in spite of your apparent obsession to want the worst for me.
Hang in there. I would be sad to see you not here anymore. Part of my personal posting style is anecdotal. I use things from my life as vehicles to make a point. There is no boast intended. Yep, it was not hard digging out who you are, but if you recall, it was you who escalated things to that point with your trying to use an account name on another site I had never heard of to influence me never to post to you again. And since I feel I made my point, I never mention anything regarding who you are. We both deserve our privacy respected.
I'll even go so far as to apologize for bringing up that point yesterday and digging you a we bit on mis-spellings. I actually feel I understand you enough to feel you work to do as much good in your personal life as you can and feel the lives of your friends and family would of been the poorer if you were not around. I actually do care.
Why did you go and do that? Tell them to start it back up. Dammit, i'm pissed now.
I gave my opinion, and it influence the change regarding inter-forum fratricide. My opinion has not changed regarding that, and even if I did change my mind, that is not my forum, and we all have to live with what the owner does there. I also argued long and hard to get some leeway respected for Sneakypete and how he posts there. And I did that even though I disagree with pete on many things, I admire him as a person and have always enjoyed his posts. I disagree with how that was handled, but it's not my forum and I respect the owner's right to decide to do things as she wants to.
I still think Robin is a piece of trash. Hey Robin Screw you and your wacked out forum.
She runs her forum ethically and it is well managed. you could learn a lot from her were you to grow up. Oh, and Stonie, I didn't say you were racist. If you re-read that you would see I said the use of that word was in that realm. All people have issues in that regard to work out, and that is a world of difference between only being human, which is where you are, and being an activist pro-actively promoting hatred and bigotry as PSUSA is. You often read things without thinking about them and go by whatever emotions the impression your first read gives you. When I say you really need to grow up, that is one point I profoundly believe. Your immaturity is what makes you your own worst enemy.
That is nuts. She is a liar. She has propaganda pictures representing articles. The list goes on and on. She is unethical trash.
One thing's for sure; she has never breached Pmail confidentiality that I know of. That you could say the same.
No such thing as pmail confidentiality. Now if someone sent me a message saying I want to say something confidential and I agreed then that is one thing and I would abide by that. Say I was to say to you. "Hey mike I really hate all Nword" Then I kept saying on open forum that I don't. You would keep your mouth shut right? NOT
If he is a real doctor then the notes are not fake.

If they are a lie then they are fake. You liberals have no shame. Lying is ok in you folks view.
People mention things in Pmail to keep things out of the forum flow if they have value as an example to make a point in regards to an argument between two people, but should not be fare for comment in forum. You deliberately acted to harm personal relationships between the owner of the mentioned forum and me. You did that maliciously. There was no point to be made with that gossip post to Murron except to stir the pot. I like Christine because though we disagree on many things she is passionate about, she is a caring and giving person. I also do not believe she is racist. She abides by her virtual community's desire to freely associate with whom they wish too. She doesn't decide who is there or not based on view, she does it by general consensus of whom most people want there or not. I based my reclusing myself from there for the time being based on people being there like PSUSA, not Christine or the majority of others there. So again, you not only breached confidentiality, but you got the facts wrong. Fact it Stone, you need to grow up and to stop operating as if only you matter. You are a baby, a childish idiot who lives to cause trouble and hurt other people. Eventually you will reap what you sow.
When I posted it I was just informing Murron you said you were done here and the reason you gave. You sure are emotional.
Are you a doctor?
"Keep Your Goddamn Government Hands Off My Medicare!" - Various Tea Party signs.
And who are you to speak to her for me? As I said, you were stirring the pot. I can answer my own pings without you doing so using gossip culled from private mail to you. As for emotion, you are not here and cannot but make a subjective call on how my emotions are running. I've posted on forums a long time and this particular item definitively letting me know this is a bad place to be in all circumstances disgusts me, but actually, I have yet to get angry or truly emotional about this. The strongest emotion I feel is concern for Murron's heath whether she like me or not. As I never wish harm or bad luck on people, even should we not get along. As I said, you are only into stirring the pot and fucking with people. I also now understand a wee bit better how it is you can't manage to keep out of jail. Obviously you run your private life as erratically and maliciously as you do your presence online. I feel sorry for anyone who has to put up with you in real time.
I know you remind us constantly.
As you do in regards to what an infant you are in how you deal with life.
Put that in context you dumb ass. The pigs said I didn't have insurance and automatically suspended my license without my knowledge. I got pulled over by a pig that my wife reported for not doing his job a year earlier. I had insurance and they were wrong. They also tortured me in jail. A prick named POSANDRY or POSANDY. I remember his name because I used to work for a guy named Andy. And you just add Piece Of Shit to the beginning. Posandy you are a piece of shit. Do what you did to me in jail and I will beat the living shit out of you.
Gee Stone, you sure are emotional.
Sometimes I am Mike. So what. When I am wronged I get pissed off.
If the Wisconsin Medical Board is worth a shit then any real doctor diagnosing patients without examining them won't be one much longer.
