Hey Marc ..... They were doing the same thing this election. I was by his side helping with everything....I knew News Orleans loved him, but I was truly touched to see how many and much they truly love your father! He is truly an honered icon on this city. Not many left in this city... Heck World like him. I am proud to work for a man that truly love his city, his people and mostly his job......
@SunSin1000 The best leaders are those who don't seek to be leaders, like Cincinnatus of Ancient Rome, who led out of a sense of duty rather than ambition.
Instead of elections we should hold drafts. It'll be like jury duty, but instead of a week or two - it'll be four years.
The last time Dr Minyard had an opposing candidate, people were gathering up all his posters to take home and hang on their walls when the election was over. Usually those political signs stay there for days after the election. Tough act to follow...but good luck
Wait you're surprised about this ad. Do you remember what state you are talking about let alone the city. Based on corruption and has for hundreds of years. Is there one person in elected office who has not been a criminal? How many governors? Does no one remember the fine Governor from great state of Louisiana Edwin Edwards. Convicted of fraud then reelected years later. What about Mayor Morial? No one should be surprised about this ad. This is the way things have always been.
Prior to 1990 it was legal for the family members to sign waivers at the coroner's office in New Orleans to donate organs. After 1990 that no longer extended to the coroner's office. The ad misrepresents the facts. It was the way things were done back then and it was legal. And you are right Tommygun, the charge was not for selling organs.
Prison time is not even enougg,YOU went to far. This is not even bad or dirty politics, this is a disgrace. The sad thing is you can't take back what this has already done. YOU can't bring back the young man or lady, or even that baby that died already because they did not get the heart, or lungs from the only person that could have donated because the family said no to organ donations right after seeing this ad. How will the family feel after finding out they said no over a lie! VERY SAD
LOPA and SouthernEye Bank has asked Mckenna to pull this ad because they have lost dotnations of vital organs due to famlies seeing this ad-meaning people have already died and will continue to die because of these Lies! This is not a joke people. This ad is going to kill even more or cause people to go blind or even stay blind. How can McKenna and anyone that supports him sleep at night knowing they are the cause of death already and others that will continue to die because of your actions?
Shame on you!!!! Did you not even stop to of think the people that are going to go/stay blind and even die just because YOU and THIS AD! I want you to ask yourself a question, how about if you child needed a heart and because someone that would have matched your child ..their family said no to organ donation because they saw this ad. You would be picking your child's coffin instead of making up more lies to hurt people.
I guess it's just a coincidence that the "actor" pretending to be a greedy monster who defiles human bodies for personal profit is speaking with a Yiddish accent. Nevermind the fact that Minyard was never even charged, let alone convicted, and McKenna, the guy who produced this commercial has been convicted for tax evasion.
OO wow I just notice something...He kills dogs, his wife kills mailmen.....the wonder he wants to be coroner....Killing is not only in his blood but in his whole dang family.
Nah....first of all Dr. Minyard swam three miles to get to the coroner's office and was stuck there without food and water for almost five days. Second, once they opened a mock coroner's office in Carville LA, Dr. Minyard was not in charge. DMART and DHH took over. This idiot McKenna is talking about something that happened over 20 years when a family lawer made a big deal out of nothing. Sad that is the only thing he can get on Minyard and Minyard has been doing this for over 34 years.
The allegations were made - and Minyard was never charged, let alone convicted - over 20 years ago. Apparently some bone fragments were donated, not sold, and the family claimed they had not given permission. A settlement was reached because even if New Orleans won the case, the trial would have cost more than the settlement. Meanwhile McKenna HAS been convicted of tax evasion. Gee, I wonder who would be less trustworthy? A guy who was once accused and never charged or convicted or a tax cheat?
@7StoryMagnet Jesus-fucking-Christ on a Pogo Stick, for people who make claims about the constitutionality of a given law, you seem very ignorant about the Constitution.
What part of "The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts " don't you understand?
It doesn't say anything about having to go to roads (actually most roads are state-owned and thus paid for by your property/state taxes).
@7StoryMagnet I won't swear by this, I'm no economist, but printing money alone is probably inflationary and therefore more harmful to the economy than borrowing it.
Either way, what you state does not contradict what is in the Constitution, so again I fail to see the problem.
And hey, I'm a Liberal - I don't want to bomb anyone! Except for maybe Glenn Beck and/or Rush Limbaugh : ]
yep you are certainly no economist, there is nothing more harmful to an economy than borrowing money
that's why they call it debt and usery
the constitution says we must print our own money (the government) and not borrow it from a private bank
unfortunately sub-human war monger (and democrat) woodrow wilson changed this when he handed over the power of controlling interest rates to the federal reserve (a private bank)
I may not be an economist, but you are certainly no historian. Woodrow Wilson was no warmonger; if he was he sure went about it the wrong way. Not to mention, why would a war monger work to establish the League of Nations? A clever ploy perhaps?
That said, just show me where in the Constitution it explicitly says Congress "must print our own money and not borrow it"
Also, why stop at hating Wilson? You should equally hate on Alexander Hamilton who argued for the creation of a central bank.
if i'm no historian, why did the University of Texas give me a bachelor's degree in it?
and he was a war monger....however he did (in his later years) regret both ww1 and the federal reserve so at least he saw the error of his ways
wilson was a puppet of the warburgs and rothschilds who got him elected with their money. That's why he put them in charge of our nation's MONEY. They pulled the strings. He admitted this later
It was their idea to go to war w/germany and to create the L.O.N.
By your definition you've implicated anyone and everyone. I guess Jesus was a warmonger; Gandi too must have been a warmonger.
Having a BA in History does not make one a historian. In addition, your arguments are a violation of how historians form their conclusions. Historians, like scientists, look at all the data and try to form conclusions; you've already formed your ideological conclusions and fit those facts to suit your argument.
@mikepalomino Okay, I was intensely curious to see how the hell we got a lunatic debate on Woodrow Wilson and the Evil Bankers on an ad for freaking county coroner. Can't say I understand it much better now than I did then, but in any case - as a Tea Partier, I salute you for your reasoned grasp of history. YouTube needs more people counteracting the crazies.
@BlueReckless Firstly, thank you for the kind words. Considering our political differences that means a lot. If only others could do the same in this political climate.
I don't even recall how I came across this video, I think it was linked from HuffPo. At the time I commented the guy who flew his plane into the IRS building had just occurred so I found that 7Storymagent's comments bothersome. Sometimes I can't help but chime in on some comments that I find wrong-headed : )
I don't know if I should accept this as a short clip of a horror movie or a very unscrupulously run political campaign ad loosely based on a dropped lawsuit. Oh, by the way, McKenna didn't talk about his tax evasion and his nine-month imprisonment on this ad.
That d*ck McKenna went to the same elementary school as me growing up and one day for no reason, he rode by on his bike and drew up a bb gun and shot my dog in the face. It went through his eye and into his brain and he dropped instantly like a sack of potatoes. I HATE THAT DWIGHT MCKENNA!
There also is a law that state a person to whom is running for office can not run even if they were pradon in the last 15 years.... Now if it was overs 15 yes it would be fine... But it is not that long ago... Why has anyone brought this up yet.... Yeah let's keep letting this fool get away with not only disgracing our city but the familes of organ donors.... Anybody knows the coroner can't harvest organs!!!!
I did a search on this McKenna.. He was in federal prison for nine months for tax fraud... Read up on how he was hiding his income that he was making from lawyers to see their clinents that were in false lawsuits cases...
I dare anyone to call McKenna and ask him why he got fired from the coroners officeyears ago? I beat he won't tell you that he would show up on scenes so drunk that the ploice banned him for going on scenes any more.... How is he going to be the coroner if he is banned from scene? Hmmmm
Very good point.....I forgot abouthis wife killing the mailman while she was drunk....just another x on McKenna.. This man is nothing but a big loser the wonder he keeps trying to run for office. He needs to feel good about something.
Dr. McKenna also was accused of Medicaid fraud. He used to pick up these kids and give them hearing tests over and over again then bill the state multiple times. He claims he was "helping the poor." dude is a crook, a thief, and a drunk. And apparently his wife might be too since she killed a mailman recently.
Isn't this McKenna a surgeon? Shouldn't he know that organ harvesting has to be done in a hospital? The body has to be kept on a ventelator until it is time to remove the organs? Plus the cornoer is not the person that does the autopsies, patholigist that the coroner hires does....in the morge not in a hosptial hitting!!! Helllo Mr. McKeen, spleens are not organs that can or needs to be transplanted? If you don't know this how in the hell are you going to Classify the Death for our City?
OOO one other thing, why don't everyone that is a fan of this man Mckenna, call him and ask him why when he was Working for Dr. Minyard years ago, that Dr. Minyard had to let him go because he would show up on death scenes so drunk and would cause so much ruckus the police on scene wanted to arrested him. It got so bad, Police refuse to have him on scenes anymore!!!! Tell me people, Is this the type of person we want handling the deaths of our city?
First of all...so unclassy. This Mckenna is a surgeon? Shouldn't he know that you can not transpant organ after the person has been dead awhile. Organs have to be harvested in the hospital while the body is still being oxygeninated. Second, you can not transplant spleens!!!!!! This McKenna is a idiot, he made a comment that he wanted it to be comical, is that want people want when thier loveone's just passed away. Your Coroner making fun of the deathof your loveone!!!
Someone from NO please tell me that someone besides a tax cheat who runs sleazy, over-the-top ads and a guy who helps cover up murders is running for Coroner. Please?

Was it income tax evasion?
if so i don't give a shit
all americans should stop paying their income taxes, it doesn't go to roads or programs or anything
your income tax just goes directly to the private bankers at the fed as interest payment for letting them print out fucking money for us
so....income tax evasion is NOT bad
it is PATRIOTIC because income tax is UNconstitutional
