I was reading the Chrons piece about Sheila Jackson Lees town hall, when something caught my eye:
One supporter, Dr. Roxana Mayer, a physician who does not live in Jackson Lees district, praised the reform plan for overhauling a broken system.
I dont know what there is in the bill that creates such panic, she said.
In this video, Mayer claims to be a general practitioner, eliciting applause and even a hug from Queen Sheila:
Im not sure why, but something didnt smell right. So my colleagues and I did a little digging, and wouldnt you know it? Roxana Mayer is, like, totally not a doctor.
But she is an Obama campaign volunteer.
Our own David Jennings secured a phone interview, in which Mayer admitted to impersonating a physician, saying get this she thought it would help her credibility. (It didnt.)
Now heres where it spins off into a whole new dimension of weird. See the bug-eyed woman seated behind not-doctor Mayer?
Maybe she thinks she's a doctor because she went to school long enough to become one.
Patterico also investigated and posted his email correspondence with Roxanna Mayer. The not-a-doctor WAS an Obama DELEGATE.
Also Patterico has screen shots of the altered caption of Lone Star Times describing her as a doctor.

“Isnt it against the law to even say that if you are not one? If so she should be prosecuted!”
I don’t know Chris....but it was an out right lie.If the right people hear about this...she could be in real big trouble.
The University of Houston is where she is attending classes and that would be of GREAT concern to them that she out right lied before people on CAMERA.
Now the U of H’s name is out...I don’t think they are going to like being associated with her.U of H will or has already been getting calls related to her...about who she really is.
You can count on it!
They sure haven’t missed many meals!
I think that's generally referred to as a "muffin top."
Absolutely. That should be official FR verbiage.
This certainly does NOT help the credibility of the American black community in the eyes of the global community. Lie to achieve social goals. If you can’t trust them now, how do you know you can trust them the next time? The world is watching...
The Failed Obama Administration©
If his plan is sooo great, hwy does he have to plant people to pose as doctors?
What a farce
I have never seen a politician sink as low as this zero
That is the only blouse she has that fits. < /sarc>
Since at least January 1, 1978, it has been a violation of Texas laws concerning the practice of medicine for a person:
(a) to diagnose, treat, or offer to treat any disease or disorder when that person is not licensed to practice medicine in Texas;
(b) for an unlicensed person to impersonate a licensed practitioner; and
(c) for a licensed physician to permit another unlicensed person to use his license or certificate to actually practice medicine. I.G. Ex. 66, 7/ 11 at 141-143; I.G. Ex. 99.
As such, it is a separate subsection of the criminal statute to claim you are a “medical doctor”, not just a “doctor” which could legally be a PhD. In her case, she claimed to be a Pediatrician. There is *no* non-licensed as a Medical Doctor form of being a Pediatrician.
I’d like to add that Texas is probably the *worst* State in the US to pretend to be a medical doctor, because they get a lot of Mexicans who pretend to be doctors and dentists, and this has led to some very nasty incidents.
I guarantee you that no one is going to hold her accountable for that. Democrats can do just about anything and get a pass time after time. She should be held up as a public shame on the Obama team. When they have to use these kinds of tactics they are losing the argument.
Save this video somehow before the dems get cronies to copyright it and take it down
