Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. being treated for "mood disorder"

[MADem]

73. You still haven't told me how you'd "tell" your employers if you got hit by a crosstown bus and were

in a coma. You think you'd get fired in that instance? Or is it only "mental health" illness that you find problematic? That's what I'm getting from you.

And, since you didn't read what I wrote the first time, let me repeat that I don't have a job. If I were still in the one I had for decades, I know that the hospital would report appropriately to my employer via my insurance company, while retaining patient privacy under HIPAA. That is plainly what has happened in this case--you don't have to be a genius to figure that out, since the umbrella term "mood disorder" is what is being used.

I can't believe you say you're a lawyer and you don't know this, or seem unwilling or unable to read the documentation provided to you. This is Employee Relations 101 stuff. Your doubling down causes me to look askance.

Can you direct us to a tape of your "debate" with Rep. Jackson? Why would you be "debating" him? Were you a primary candidate?

Or by "debate," do you mean you asked him a question at a "town hall?" Or while he was going to the men's after church?

Keep digging.
