Do you think she'll get the same body cavity search media treatment that was given to Joe the Plumber?





Patterico and Lone Star Times capture yet another banner moment from a town-hall forum hosted by Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee (D-TX) . In this clip, Roxana Mayer introduces herself as a doctor (a general practitioner for four years) in order to support ObamaCare and Jackson-Lee in a fairly hostile crowd. For her efforts, she gets a big hug from the Congresswoman, an image which the Houston Chronicle featured prominently on their website coverage of the event.

But was Mayer really a doctor?

Not only was Mayer not a doctor, Roxana Mayer was an Obama delegate, as Patterico discovered with some digging. What’s more, the Houston Chronicle apparently knew this and failed to include it in its glowing coverage of Mayer’s appearance. The reporter, Cindy Horswell, has admitted that she knew Mayer was an Obama delegate and that Mayer didn’t live in Jackson-Lee’s district when she wrote the Chronicle story. After getting exposed, the Chronicle quietly changed the caption on the photo without issuing a correction, removing the reference to Mayer being a doctor.

Be sure to read all of the posts for a great rundown of an excellent catch by Patterico and Lone Star Times. At the moment, no one has any evidence that Jackson-Lee, the White House, or Organizing for America had anything to do with getting this imposter the microphone to ask a sympathetic question and make sympathetic declarations at the town-hall forum. However, the odds of that happening as a coincidence with an Obama delegate seem a little long.

excerpt



One supporter, Roxana Mayer, praised the reform plan for overhauling a broken system.

“I don't know what there is in the bill that creates such panic,” she said.

Mayer identified herself as a physician who does not live in Jackson Lee's district. However, her name does not appear in the database maintained by the Texas Medical Board, which licenses all doctors in Texas.

In an e-mail to the Chronicle on Thursday morning, Mayer confirmed she is not a licensed physician.

"I have been advised to refrain from making any further statements," she said.





Looks like she's getting a masters in social work at UofH. http://www.linkedin.com/pub/roxana-mayer/6/131/148

Joe makes his money "plumbing" - he doesn't have a commercial plumber's license.

What would you call him?

I think the real story is the Houston Chronicle ran the story as legit even though they knew it was fake.

Hey Chump - get back to us when government offices start investigating this woman's tax returns and arrest records and anything else they can find.

Journalists are SUPPOSED to investigate and verify, which is what was done in the case of the phony woman doctor.

Ultimately, that's what happens when you make yourself a public figure. One should probably have one's shit together and not lie so much, no matter what one's political leanings may be.

Isn't there a federal law against impersonating a physician?

I believe it's only if they actually attempt to provide care to you.

I think you are wrong. In any case they are providing health care advice and posing as a physician, I'm pretty sure it's a felony. Exclusions to this are of course in the acting field, but she posed as a real doctor!

Yes I could be wrong, but I really think I'm right on this one.

Look it up.

What I found with a cursory look is that if she didn't dispense any care advise, which seems to be the case in this instance, then she's not liable.
In the event she would dispense advise, then you might have a civil case for fraud.
The instances it turns into a criminal offense is if she attempts to actually practice care. You have battery if she touches you, statutory violations for practicing without a license, drug felony if she prescribes/dispenses drugs without a DEA license.
