      Yes she runs a shady faith healing business. I think the left can do better than her.

          I don’t think this is true. She has some beliefs that are out there from where I’m sitting, but I’m guessing they’re pretty common where she is, but the business claim seems to be false. Looks like someone fell for an AIPAC funded campaign set on de-legitimizing Bush. Sure maybe she’s burned now and DSA needs to run someone else, but lets put the blame where it belongs.

            That’s why I said that whether it’s true or not, locals typically believe it’s true, and that affects the vote results. The problem is even if the faith healing part isn’t true or is mostly untrue, there are other factors that either cannot be explained away (like her absentee record in congress or hiring her husband for her campaign) and she has not done a good job of providing answers.

        Any fact checking done on the business? Can’t find anything solid. Looks like she made some claims about healing a women’s tumour, but that’s hardly damning imo.

          If she’s not an actual MD and an Oncologist to me it is

            I guess I’ve been around enough baptist-style Christians in my life that stuff like this doesn’t phase me. I don’t think she’s correct, but so long as her policy stances are based on evidence-based medicine (which it seems like they are) then I’m not concerned about personal beliefs like this. I’ve seen plenty of faith-healer grifters, Bush doesn’t fit the profile.

          Given how increasingly terrible public health is, while I would’ve probably voted for her if I lived there I actually find it quite damning. The last thing the government needs is even more alternative medicine cranks, after all.
