“Abortion Barbie” Wendy Davis Claims in Court That She Has Mental Health Issues

The Democrats intent on taking back Texas were so desperate for a hero, they turned to pink clad Wendy Davis with, as Vogue described her, “Barbie-doll looks”. They might live to regret that.


Back in 1996, Wendy Davis lost an election for the Fort Worth, TX City Council. After the election, she sued the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, the local newspaper, for defamation. In short, Davis did not like being criticized by the media (something she won’t have to worry about this go round), so she sued for those criticisms claiming they defamed her.


The Texas Court of Appeals and then the Texas Supreme Court both threw out her case. But it is worth noting that Davis, in making her case, claimed that the nasty newspaper, by virtue of criticizing her, damaged her “mental health.”


More worrisome regarding her mental stability, Davis sued the newspaper months after losing her city council and claimed that she “ha[d] suffered and [was] continuing to suffer damages to her mental health.”


Think about that. The best candidate the Texas Democrats could find to run is a lady who admits in open court that a newspaper editorial caused her mental health to be damaged.

You're criticizing her for something that happened more than 17 years ago?

Some of those tea party losses from yesterday seem to have unhinged you a bit.
 
That's too bad. IMO it does show a lack of ability to deal with the pressures of office.

OTOH, after all this time she has survived and succeeded so I'd probably dismiss it as something she's adapted to and now handles.
 
Mental health issues from less than that number of years are certainly relevant. Or is she no longer unstable (she's still a registered Dem...)?

It's relevant if she's running for office now. My guess is that her mental health still sucks.

I googled the lawsuit here. http//therealwendy.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/0:9/Lawsuit-against-FWST.pdf

Page 37, section VIII: Damages "As a result of the actions described above, Davis has suffered and is continuing to suffer damages to her mental health, her physical health, her right to pursue public offices in the past and in the future, and to her legal career."

This looks like pretty standard legal language for a lawsuit, the same kind you'd find in divorce cases or any petition where someone claims damages.

Racist X is going to have to do better to try and show Wendy Davis is suffering from mental problems.
 
wow what kind of asshole seeks to punish someone for having had a mental issue in the past as if it make the person "forever too insane to function".


man am I sick of you brain dead cons
 
You do realize that the inability of Christy to lose weight suggests a mental health issue right?

Not one that will make him incapable of serving in any elected position.

Why so for this woman who has obviously shown she dealt with the issue
 
:rofl2:

I'm not making excuses, I'm giving you a lesson in legal terminology. But if you don't understand, pull out one of your many divorce decrees and read the part where your ex claims emotional distress.
 
exactly how much of America will this current incarnation of the republican party choose to hate?


do they think they don't need any voters to win an election?

I don't think she had any mental health issues other than temporary anxiety and depression as a result of being slandered by a newspaper with way deeper pockets than her own.

People aren't entitled to hold public office. They are going to be held to these standard thingies when they run for office, because it's kind of a big deal...

Aren't you the one who wants anyone who's ever had a mental problem, unable to possess a firearm??

The truth is Right Wingers here in Texas are absolutely TERRIFIED of Wendy Davis and that's why they dredged up this nonsense from two decades ago.

It's just another pathetic smear job from cowardly Righties who rely on fear and misinformation to win elections these days.
