Two weeks after firing its entire editorial staff, Facebooks Trending news section highlighted a report by the Association of American Physicians and Surgeonswhich believes that the gay male lifestyle shortens lives by 20 years and abortion can cause breast cancerclaiming most doctors polled had serious concerns about Hillary Clintons health on Friday.
Most links in the trending section about the poll referred to a post on PRNewswire, a website where anyone can post a press release, or right-wing blogs.
The story is still appearing in Facebooks Trending section at press time, and Facebook has not yet responded to an email from The Daily Beast requesting comment.
AAPS press release says nearly 71% of 250 physicians dub concerns about Clintons health serious. Also receiving votes in response to that question are shows how the powers that be are willing to use her to win regardless of having to prop her up and keep her from speaking in public and in this case, she is so much more dangerous to the repbulic (sic) if shes healthy.

In one re-enacted scene, a clot of right wing religious, political, professional, and academic zealots in a political strategy meeting listened to a woman academic Psychologist describe all of the physical and mental health problems Rabin exhibited via body language and actions. By the end of the scene she was shaking with grief and rage, breaking up, while describing Rabin's mental illness.

Only use I have for this group would be to know their membership list so I know which doctors to avoid.

On Edit:
I would love to see statistics of this groups malpractice rates vs the general medical population. Makes me wonder if it's higher.

(86,794 posts)the actual FB is something altogether different socially and, in my reckoning, far outweighs this one rich person's generosity.

It was handwritten and sent to subscribers and health care organization (that's where I'd see the disgusting thing). At the time, I had no idea who Ron Paul was other than some right wing Klansman type.
