Includes Bullying Colleagues, Being Fired And Suing His Former Employer  Throughout the past year, Richard Carmona has constantly misled voters about his so-called impeccable resume, but today the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) released the third volume of the “Carmona Files,” which reveals that throughout his career Carmona has consistently bullied his colleagues, has been fired from his job and has tried to sue his former employer.      While it’s been well documented that Carmona does not work well with others and that he makes insensitive jokes towards women, it’s been forgotten that Carmona has consistently been removed from various jobs.    Carmona has been dismissed from the Tucson Medical Center, forced to resign from the Pima County Health System and was never re-nominated to be Surgeon General.  And when he leaves, he has sued these healthcare facilities, which diverts millions of dollars that could otherwise be used on patient care.       Click Here…

While U.S. Congressman Jeff Flake has unveiled his six point plan for economic growth and prosperity, earlier this week Democrat Richard Carmona revealed that his economic plan was to double-down on President Obama’s failed economic policies of higher taxes and more government spending. Carmona told The Hill that he will oppose a full extension of the 2001 and 2003 Congressional tax cuts.  According to reports, this will cost small business owners in Arizona with $3.5 billion in lost economic output and could kill 13,000 jobs in the Grand Canyon State. As The Hill reports: “I would be willing to enter into discussion to say, people making over $250 or $300 or $500 [thousand] could pay, and you know, I’m a high wage-earner, and if I had to do that to help out for the next year, OK, I’ll do that.”  (Alex Jaffe, Senate Candidate Carmona Has Dems Seeing Blue In Red-State Arizona, The Hill, 9/24/12) Notably, Carmona is…

The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) is asking President Obama’s handpicked candidate Richard Carmona today to tell Arizonans whether or not he shares President Obama’s view that the serious problems we have seen on the economy and the recent turmoil in the Middle East are just “bumps in the road.” Speaking on CBS’ 60 Minutes last night about the current problems in the Middle East, President Obama said: “I was pretty certain and continue to be pretty certain that there are going to be bumps in the road…” (CBS’s “60 Minutes,” 9/23/12) These are the same words he used about our economic problems in a speech last year: “There are always going to be bumps on the road to recovery.” (President Barack Obama, Remarks, Toledo, OH, 6/3/11) “It’s typical of President Obama and the Democrat leadership to dismiss serious problems as being ‘bumps in the road’.  While they might just be inconvenient to…

Across The United States ObamaCare Took $716 Billion From Seniors On Medicare WASHINGTON — It was a little more than two years ago, when Richard Carmona’s  $1.76 trillion healthcare bill cut over $700 billion from Medicare and today a new report details the exact impact this will have on Arizona. According to the University of Minnesota’s Carlson School of Business, these cuts will take approximately $11.8 billion from seniors in Arizona who depend on Medicare. Over The Next 10 Years, ObamaCare Will Cut $11.8 Billion From Medicare Plans That Arizona Seniors Rely On For Their Health Care Needs. (Robert A. Book and Michael Ramlet, “What Is The Regional Impact Of The Medicare Fee-For-Service And Medicare Advantage Payment Reductions,” University Of Minnesota’s Carlson School Of Management, 9/12) Notably, Democrat Richard Carmona called President Obama “brave” for pushing his Medicare-raiding healthcare bill through Congress. “It’s simply remarkable that Democrat Richard Carmona supported a healthcare bill that cut…

Less Than 100,000 Jobs Created For The Month Of August, Labor Force Participation Rate Falls To Lowest Point In 31 Years  Nearly four years ago, President Barack Obama – who personally recruited Richard Carmona to run as a Democrat – rammed an $825 billion stimulus into law that was supposed to “create or save” 3.5 million jobs, yet today’s jobs report reiterates that their failed economic policies are not working. As the Wall Street Journal reports: JOB GROWTH SLOWS SHARPLY IN AUGUST: Job growth slowed sharply in August, the Labor Department said Friday. Total nonfarm payrolls increased by 96,000, lower than the 125,000 gain expected by Wall Street economists.  Adding to the sense of weakness, job growth in the past two months were revised down by 41,000.  The unemployment rate declined to 8.1% in August from 8.3% in the previous month but the drop was due to a smaller labor force.  Economists forecast…

It’s Been Widely Reported That President Obama Recruited Richard Carmona After being the only Democrat in the entire country to be personally recruited by President Barack Obama, this past weekend Democrat Richard Carmona went out of his way to try to rewrite history and told 3TV in Phoenix that the campaigner-in-chief did not recruit him. The reality is that it’s widely known that President Obama personally called Carmona and successfully persuaded him to run for office.  Additionally, Mr. Obama said that Carmona – who supports ObamaCare, which cut $700 billion from Medicare – would shake up the race in the Grand Canyon State.  Carmona even admitted these facts as recently as two months ago. As 3TV Phoenix reports: CLICK HERE TO WATCH THE VIDEO Notably, this isn’t the first time Carmona has tried to mislead Arizonans, as last month he bizarrely denied that President Obama even called him during the recruiting process. “It is strange that Richard Carmona denies being called…
