With all the “investigations” and blame.. why is there no news about Diane Feinstein resigning her position?

Question : With all the “investigations” and blame.. why is there no news about Diane Feinstein resigning her position?
SEN. Dianne Feinstein has resigned from the Military Construction Appropriations subcommittee.
As MILCON leader, Feinstein relished the details of military construction, even micromanaging one project at the level of its sewer design. She regularly took junkets to military bases around the world to inspect construction projects, some of which were contracted to her husband’s companies, Perini Corp. and URS Corp.
The MILCON subcommittee is not only in charge of supervising military construction, it also oversees “quality of life” issues for veterans, which includes building housing for military families and operating hospitals and clinics for wounded soldiers. Perhaps Feinstein is trying to disassociate herself from MILCON’s incredible failure to provide decent medical care for wounded soldiers.
Two years ago, before the Washington Post became belatedly involved, the online magazine Salon.com exposed the horrors of deficient medical care for Iraq war veterans. While leading While leading MILCON, Feinstein had ample warning of the medical-care meltdown. But she was not proactive on veteran’s affairs.
Feinstein abandoned MILCON as her ethical problems were surfacing in the media, and as it was becoming clear that her subcommittee left grievously wounded veterans to rot while her family was profiting from the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan. It turns out that Blum also holds large investments in companies that were selling medical equipment and supplies and real estate leases—often without the benefit of competitive bidding—to the Department of Veterans Affairs, even as the system of medical care for veterans collapsed on his wife’s watch.
As of December 2006, according to SEC filings and www.fedspending.org, three corporations in which Blum’s financial entities own a total of $ 1 billion in stock won considerable favor from the budgets of the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs:
Boston Scientific Corporation: $ 17.8 million for medical equipment and supplies; 85 percent of contracts awarded without benefit of competition.
Kinetic Concepts Inc.: $ 12 million, medical equipment and supplies; 28 percent noncompetitively awarded.
CB Richard Ellis: The Blum-controlled international real estate firm holds congressionally funded contracts to lease office space to the Department of Veterans Affairs. It also is involved in redeveloping military bases turned over to the private sector.
You would think that, considering all the money Feinstein’s family has pocketed by waging global warfare while ignoring the plight of wounded American soldiers, she would show a smidgeon of shame and resign from the entire Senate, not just a subcommittee. Conversely, you’d think she might stick around MILCON to try and fix the medical-care disaster she helped to engineer for the vets who were suckered into fighting her and Bush’s panoply of unjust wars

News Flash! Fastin pill is back!
01 year ago
by admin
in Health Conditions
Back in December 1998 Fastin was withdrawn from the shelves of drug dealers and the consumer market in general on the direction of U.S. medical officials. But the new line is that the pill Fastin is back on the market? a product is marketed exclusively through the retailer Nutrition.com world class. Although the pill Fastin is back courtesy of World Class Nutrition.com, the commercial rights to Fastin by Hi Tech Pharmaceuticals are still held.
One reason Fastin pill is back, is that it is structurally as a drug for its main ingredient Phenylethylamine is a naturally occurring substance in its own tissues and body fluids. Fastin pill is back also because it is remarkably similar to pharmaceutical stimulants. If you are wondering what in other consumer phenylethylamine, look no further than the chocolate (which explain why eating a bar of chocolate you can feel better, improve your appetite and give you a better mood.) Phenylethylamine as a catecholamine precursor that can stimulate your metabolism without nervousness or tremor caused by other classified expected types of stimulants. PEA can also suppress the appetite, so it is used and Fastin explained.
Although the pill Fastin is back, it’s not for patients at risk for diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, thyroid dysfunction is recommended, hardening of the arteries, or heart disease. Fastin is to be used to encourage movement in combination with the right weight loss diet and exercise changes.
Moreover, even if the pill Fastin back to the retail market, you should never treat themselves with him. Instead, you should always consult your doctor before you try to start a program to consume Fastin for weight loss (or any other purpose, matter.) There are also drugs to avoid when Fastin pill is back in your regular prescription list: It’s fen-phen (fenfluramine as known), dexfenfluramine, Marplan (isocarboxazid or) Nardil (phenelzine or) Azilect (rasagiline or) or Eldepryl Emsam (selegiline both), Parnate (tranylcypromine or). Diet drugs should not be taken with the pill Fastin. Patients under 16 years of age should not Fastin.
If your doctor gives the green signal, you may Fastin again. Still, to eat like a pill? not divided into several doses of a pill because it was designed to operate in this way. If you are taking for any reason unable to make a scheduled dose, never double the dose at the scheduled time a dose? Just take the same dose as you should take and ignore the missed dose.
Some research results suggest that the PEA can be used in the systems of the body of a man missing depressed? So if you phenylethylamine, which is why your level of humor can explain in a few minutes. But this does not mean everyone can automatically take the pill or even a phenylethylamine Fastin? In fact, the key ingredient of possible allergic reactions or the pill is, why you should always be under a doctora? Supervision to take over and more. So, never treat themselves.
FASTIN
