person fool liar, pl do this all the time. This is just another of the incessant, rightwing fascist lies that are spewed day and night from pl. It is pointless to bother with any big dealing with that.

And we already proved that you guys lie all the time, as when we point out your lies about fetal pain, about abortion/breast cancer, about near-term abortions and what not. Yes, you guys lie all the time, this is just another in your long list of lies, incredibly' scumbag creeps.

and you are entitled to your opinion. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and feelings with us. But as anyone with a ounce of since knows...All you have proven here is what "you" personally think and feel. Nothing more. I am sure if anyone is really interested in what the "truth" is....They will research for themselves.... Make up their own mind....And not simply take one individuals one-sided opinion as fact. Again...Thank you for sharing.

topeka — more than two months after disciplinary action forced him to close his kansas city, kan., abortion clinic, Dr. Krishna rajanna has lost his license.

the state board of healing arts voted unanimously saturday to revoke rajanna’s license. Earlier this year, his case became the focus of a legislative debate over regulating abortion clinics.

A board inspector made two surprise visits in march to rajanna’s clinic, reporting that the facility was unclean and that rajanna and his staff kept syringes of medications in an unlocked refrigerator. The inspector also reported finding a dead mouse in the hallway.

Rajanna argued that he had not been given an opportunity to meet with the inspector to correct the deficiencies. He also said in his 10 years of performing abortions in kansas city, no patient has ever complained about his care.

But board members concluded that rajanna’s clinic represented a danger and said that as a doctor, he shouldn’t have needed the board’s prodding to keep a clinic clean and safe.

Rajanna can appeal the decision to district court. His attorney, robert manske, said rajanna will decide soon whether to challenge the board’s action.

Manske told the board that revoking rajanna’s license would hurt poor patients, saying rajanna’s clinic operated in a low-income neighborhood and charged reasonable fees for services no one else would provide. Manske also said the problems cited by the inspector could be corrected.

“it’s kind of like driving a tack with a sledge hammer in this case,” he told the board. “there are no patients in here telling you he did bad things to them.”

but board member nancy welsh, a topeka-area doctor, said the board should not permit lesser standards of cleanliness and safety because a clinic’s patients are poor.

Board members also noted that rajanna had been previously disciplined, in 2000 and 2001, for not properly testing his patients for their blood types and for improperly labeling medications. Also, in february, rajanna signed an agreement to improve his clinic’s conditions and paid a $1,000 fine.

Rajanna told board members he’d improved the labeling of syringes containing medicines for patients and had wanted to have the inspector review them.

But board member ronald whitmer, an ellsworth osteopath, said he didn’t care whether the inspector or someone else would have told rajanna if the labels were proper.

“that’s something you should have learned in medical school,” he told rajanna.

Rajanna’s clinic became part of the legislature’s debate on abortion last year, when atty. Gen. Phill kline released photos he said an informant had taken inside the clinic in 2003.

Kathleen ostrowski, legislative research director for kansans for life, the state’s largest anti-abortion group, noted the lag in time between questions about rajanna’s clinic first arising and the board revoking his license.

Also, she said, many poor women won’t come forward if they’re harmed by an abortion, out of fear, shame or a lack of medical knowledge.

With rajanna’s case pending, abortion opponents won legislative approval this year of a bill requiring abortion clinics to obtain an annual license from the department of health and environment, hire surgeons as their medical directors and report patient deaths to the state within a day. The measure also mandated that kdhe set standards for equipment, medical screenings, ventilation and lighting.

But gov. Kathleen sebelius, an abortion rights supporter, vetoed the measure, saying medical professionals — not legislators — should set standards.

Ostrowski said rajanna’s clinic should have been shut down long before it was.

“what other branch of medicine could get away with any of this?” she said.

Yeah, let people " make up their own mind" about a pl lie. Yes, you wouldn't mind of some pl are stupid enough to believe it. Pl do seem to believe a lot of lies, after all.

Per pc's question, when this is proven to be just another hyperbolic lie, you will "forget" to admit that you are wrong, instead running with the next pl lie. Nice dishonest game you are playing there, showing yourself to be a true pl.

Nice repost, trina. Where did it say anything about eating fetuses? Gee, could it be just another pl hyperbolic lie? Nah, really? Business as usual? Be still my heart, I can't take the surprise.

more than two months after disciplinary action forced him to close his kansas city, kan., abortion clinic, Dr. Krishna rajanna has lost his license.


The state board of healing arts voted unanimously saturday to revoke rajanna's license. Earlier this year, his case became the focus of a legislative debate over regulating abortion clinics.


A board inspector made two surprise visits in march to rajanna's clinic, reporting that the facility was unclean and that rajanna and his staff kept syringes of medications in an unlocked refrigerator. The inspector also reported finding a dead mouse in the hallway.


Rajanna argued that he hadn't been given an opportunity to meet with the inspector to correct the deficiencies. He also said in his 10 years of performing abortions in kansas city, no patient has ever complained about his care.


But board members concluded that rajanna's clinic represented a danger and said that as a doctor, he shouldn't have needed the board's prodding to keep a clinic clean and safe.


Rajanna can appeal the decision to district court. His attorney, robert manske, said rajanna will decide soon whether to challenge the board's action.


Manske told the board that revoking rajanna's license would hurt poor patients, saying rajanna's clinic operated in a low-income neighborhood and charged reasonable fees for services no one else would provide. Manske also said the problems cited by the inspector could be corrected.


"it's kind of like driving a tack with a sledge hammer in this case," he told the board. "there are no patients in here telling you he did bad things to them."

but board member nancy welsh, a topeka-area doctor, said the board shouldn't permit lesser standards of cleanliness and safety because a clinic's patients are poor.


"why do they deserve a dirty clinic?" she said.


Board members also noted that rajanna had been previously disciplined, in 2000 and 2001, for not properly testing his patients for their blood types and for improperly labeling medications. Also, in february, rajanna signed an agreement to improve his clinic's conditions and paid a $1,000 fine.


Rajanna told board members he had improved the labeling of syringes containing medicines for patients and had wanted to have the inspector review them.


But board member ronald whitmer, an ellsworth osteopath, said he didn't care whether the inspector or someone else would have told rajanna if the labels were proper.


"that's something you should have learned in medical school," he told rajanna.


Rajanna's clinic became part of the legislature's debate on abortion last year when attorney general phill kline released photos he said an informant had taken inside the clinic in 2003.


Kathleen ostrowski, legislative research director for kansans for life, the state's largest anti-abortion group, noted the lag in time between questions about rajanna's clinic first arising and the board revoking his license.


Also, she said, many poor women won't come forward if they're harmed by an abortion, out of fear, shame or a lack of medical knowledge.


"there is a problem here," she said. "is the public being protected?"

with rajanna's case pending, abortion opponents won legislative approval this year of a bill requiring abortion clinics to obtain an annual license from the department of health and environment, hire surgeons as their medical directors and report patient deaths to the state within a day. The measure also mandated that kdhe set standards for equipment, medical screenings, ventilation and lighting.


But gov. Kathleen sebelius, an abortion rights supporter, vetoed the measure, saying medical professionals -- not legislators -- should set standards.


Manske had urged board members not to allow pressure from abortion opponents to "stampede" them into revoking rajanna's license.


"i don't think you've got to throw away a doctor here," he said. "he's a good man."

however, ostrowski said rajanna's clinic should have been shut down long before it was.


"what other branch of medicine could get away with any of this?" she said.

Still not a word about eating fetuses. Your lie is till unproven, fool.

duh? I don't write the news....I just copy and paste what someone else writes. And besides....I never said he did eat a fetus...I merely kept an open mind that it could be true. If it was written about a pro-life Dr....I am sure your mind would have been just as open.
