U.S. Rep. Jean Schmidt (R-OH) victim in hit and run accident
Cincinnati Pulse Journal ^

Posted on 10/13/2008 9:52:47 AM PDT by The G Man

Police are investigating after U.S. Rep. Jean Schmidt, R-Loveland, was hit by a car while jogging Wednesday morning.

Schmidt was running on Loveland-Miamiville Road near her Miami Twp. home at about 5:45 a.m. when she noticed a car coming toward her, said her spokesman, Bruce Pfaff.

As the car approached, she turned and jumped out of the way, but the car ultimately caught her on her right hip, and she was thrown a few feet off the road. The car, Pfaff said, didn't "really swerve at her, but it didn't veer away from her."

The IslamoLeft in Holland spew hate at Pim and some nut took the
bait and killed him. Pim was a patriot for the Dutch but the
Islamists cut him down


IIRC, Pim was assassinated by an animal rights activist.
And got a ridiculously light sentence.

But I do suspect the Islamics were just beaten to the punch.
(Or contracted out the hit to divert suspicion?)

Another Haider accident?

Stop comparing Republican Congressmen with Euro-Nazi trash.

What paranoia? It’s just that ‘some’ of us have made it a point to study and to know our enemy. I know our enemy quite well and know that they are not above doing or trying anything, including murder, to achieve their goals and agenda. If you think otherwise.....you might want to get a reality check.

Now, now, no need to drop to the level of those who do not have the best interests of our country at heart!

Oops, did I say that out loud? ;-)

Before we blame this on a liberal nut, do we have any idea how she voted on the Bailout?

I'm not compairing a Republican CongressWOMAN to a Nazi. I'm pointing out the fact that the Left offs its political enemies.

Remember Ron Brown, that nice African American US secretary of Commerce in the Bubba Administration? They found his body in the plane crash with a bullet hole in his skull. Get it?

What can one expect now that we have a Communist, probably a Muslim also, that has a close cousin who advocates any type of violence when he doesn’t get his way?

He wasn’t legally elected but his thugs made sure he be in office in the long run. Sound familiar?

We will become another Kenya!

All the violence is coming form the left not the right as is being suggested by our dishonorable news media.

One he gets in it’s all over for America.

All those birdbrains who think it’s “in style to elect a black man” will get the shock of their lives.

There’s no conspiracy theory. That was a legitimate attempt at her life.

You know...on one hand I am with you.

But on the other hand...we witness absolute hate from the left hourly, daily.

Nothing should surprise us......................

She’s an awesome woman and a very fast marathoner with a lot of great marathon times. I don’t think it was a conspiracy - we runners/cyclists are often victims of ignorant and evil drivers.

My guess is someone was texting on their phone, and now we will have legislation in Ohio requiring hands free phone use only in moving vehicles.

I'm basing this on her account that the person didn't swerve towards her or away from her. Since the driver didn't react at her presence, I'd guessing the driver didn't notice her until they had hit her.

I hope the Congresswoman is OK, and that they catch the driver.
