My favorite Jean Schmidt lie

By Nate Noy

OK, by now everyone KNOWS that Jean Schmidt is a sloppy compulsive liar who could never be trusted, from her OEC reprimand for a “reckless disregard for truth” and making “false and misleading statements” about her fake college degree to the lies on TV in the cover up that followed.

Of course there are the lies she told to Ohio farmers regarding her support of lifting the embargo in Cuba (until anti-Castro groups with a larger checkbook changed her mind.) There is her plagiarism scandal, her lies in a deposition regarding her fake college degree, the money she took from USEC (the company bringing the nuclear waste dump to my hometown in Piketon, Ohio) and her support of that effort.

There also is the lie that she is a “conservative” that believes in the 2nd Amendment (she voted to ban guns in Clermont County when she was a trustee there) and the fact that she voted to devastate our economy by voting to raise the rates of inflation and unemployment.

But MY personal favorite Jean Schmidt lie is one that has gone completely under the radar since October 2004.

The website marathon guide.com publishes results of marathons. As everyone knows Schmidt has made her marathon experience an integral part of her persona, in fact one of her paid shill bloggers often uses “94-lb marathon runner from Loveland” when spewing her paid shilling for Schmidt. When I was researching Schmidt for the OEC complaints I filed against her in 2006 I came across the following results:

Chicago Marathon 10/10/04: Jean Schmidt (F52) 4:02:37 11147th place.
Columbus Marathon 10/17/04: Jean Schmidt (F52) 4:13:37 2401st place.

For those of you that have never actually completed a marathon this may seem plausible, however those of us that have run a marathon with a competitive time KNOW that only a small handful of super athletes could ever accomplish this feat. In fact Road Runner Sports has a guide to marathon recovery, in which it states the following about day seven following a marathon:

7. Elevate your legs whenever possible. When you're watching TV, lie on the floor with a pillow supporting your lower back and your legs against a wall. Let your co-workers know that they're apt to find you with your legs on your desk occasionally during the day-you're a marathoner-they'll understand!


People that run marathons can barely walk a week later, and if Jean Schmidt really did run two marathons under 4:14 in one week then she should have been on the cover of Sports Illustrated or something. Of course Jean Schmidt does have a twin sister, so my question for the day is: did Jean’s sister run the race for her in Chicago or Columbus?

You may ask, why would someone bother to have their twin run a race for them? Well, the answer to this is in Schmidt’s character and the medical condition I personally believe she has:

Diagnostic criteria (DSM-IV-TR)
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, a widely used manual for diagnosing mental and behavioral disorders, defines antisocial personality disorder as a pervasive pattern of disregard for and violation of the rights of others occurring since age 15, as indicated by three (or more) of the following:

failure to conform to social norms with respect to lawful behaviors as indicated by repeatedly performing acts that are grounds for arrest
deceitfulness, as indicated by repeated lying, use of aliases, or conning others for personal profit or pleasure
impulsivity or failure to plan ahead
irritability and aggressiveness, as indicated by repeated physical fights or assaults
reckless disregard for safety of self or others
consistent irresponsibility, as indicated by repeated failure to sustain steady work or honor financial obligations
lack of remorse, as indicated by being indifferent to or rationalizing having hurt, mistreated, or stolen from another

Sound like Jean Schmidt to you? Sure does to me!

Mnemonic
A mnemonic that can be used to remember the criteria for antisocial personality disorder is CORRUPT[1][2]:

C - cannot follow law
O - obligations ignored
R - remorselessness
R - recklessness
U - underhandedness
P - planning deficit
T - temper
Yep, still SOUNDS LIKE JEAN SCHMIDT!!!!!!

As I’ve said before Jean Schmidt is a psychopath that likely would have been in jail many years ago had she not had a multi-millionaire daddy to bail her out at every turn.

Additionally we all now know that she will soon be facing an IRS investigation for her blatant and intentional disregard of campaign finance law. We also know that she stands no chance in the general election in November. The fact that anyone may actually vote for her next week still boggles the mind of those of us that know the truth about her.

Jean Schmidt’s $1.3 million IRS problem

By Nate Noy

Today I filed a Form 3949 A with the IRS reporting Jean Schmidt, the Committee to Elect Schmidt and the Schmidt for Congress Committee for blatant violations of 26 U.S.C. Section 6113(a). Additionally, I provided evidence that this violation falls within the parameters of 26 U.S.C. section 6710(c) constituting an intentional disregard of 6113(a) and therefore subjecting Schmidt and her campaign committees to a $1,000 per day fine for the aforementioned violation.

For those of you that are not experts in campaign finance law, IRS code 26 U.S.C. section 6113(a) states:

(a) General rule. Each fundraising solicitation by (or on behalf of) an organization to which this section applies shall contain an express statement (in a conspicuous and easily recognizable format) that contributions or gifts to such organization are not deductible as charitable contributions for Federal income tax purposes.

26 U.S.C. section 6710 (a) and (c) provide:

(a) Imposition of penalty. If there is a failure to meet the requirement of section 6113 with respect to a fundraising solicitation by (or on behalf of) an organization to which section 6113 applies, such organization shall pay a penalty of $1,000 for each day on which such a failure occurred. The maximum penalty imposed under this subsection on failures by any organization during any calendar year shall not exceed $10,000.


(c) $10,000 limitation not to apply where intentional disregard. If any failure to which subsection (a) applies is due to intentional disregard of the requirement of section 6113—
(1) the penalty under subsection (a) for the day on which such failure occurred shall be the greater of—
(A) $1,000, or
(B) 50 percent of the aggregate cost of the solicitations which occurred on such day and with respect to which there was such a failure


Thanks again to archive.org, a complete historical review of www.jeanschmidt.com is available.

Excerpts from my correspondence with the IRS are provided below:

The website www.jeanschmidt.com was established as a campaign website by the Committee to Elect Schmidt on 4/22/01. The Committee’s initial solicitation for funds was published on 2/17/03 and remained unchanged until 7/19/05 a total of 884 calendar days.

On 4/1/2005 the Schmidt for Congress Committee was formed. The contribution solicitation section of campaign website was not altered until 7/20/2005 and remained unchanged until 12/01/2006 a total of 500 calendar days. I have included a printout of the contribution solicitation section of the website. A complete review of the website’s history is available at: http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.jeanschmidt.com.

A review of the public solicitation for campaign funds posted on the above website clearly shows a blatant and intentional disregard for 26 U.S.C. section 6113(a). The website clearly failed to disclose that contributions are nondeductible. In fact, that the website intentionally disregarded this requirement by misleading potential contributors. The website contained a link to make contributions titled: “Contributions and Tax credits.” While technically correct that Ohio law allows a $50.00 tax credit for the purposes of state income tax, the site failed to notify potential contributors that this tax credit did not apply to federal income tax and was not tax deducible for federal income tax.

Based on this intentional disregard for 26 U.S.C. section 6113(a) the IRS should apply 26 U.S.C. section 6710(c) constituting an intentional disregard of 6113(a) and therefore subjecting Schmidt and her campaign committees to a $1,000 per day fine for the aforementioned violation. Her campaign was in violation for a total of 1,384 days spanning four calendar years.


The evidence:

2/17/2003 – 7/19/05 (884 days)

I HAVE EXCITING NEWS FOR YOU!!
A change in the Ohio income tax laws now allow a once per year, dollar-for dollar CREDIT for donations to candidates for the Ohio State Legislature. The credit consists of $50.00 for a single person or $100 for a married couple filing jointly.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR YOU?
If you make your check payable to "Committee to Elect Schmidt, 771 Wards Corner Rd., Loveland, OH 45140" for $100.00, the State of Ohio will reduce your tax by the full $100.00 when you file your Year 2003 Ohio Form IT-1040 and report your contribution on line 52 of your joint return ($50.00 credit if you file an individual return).
What a great way to support my candidacy by sending your check to my campaign committee instead of sending it to the State of Ohio in the form of $50.00 or $100.00 in state taxes!

What this means for Team Schmidt:

If the IRS agrees with my assertion that this constitutes an “intentional disregard” for the law, then Schmidt will be subject to a $1000 per day fine totaling $1,384,000.00. The BEST CASE scenario for Schmidt is that the IRS does not consider this an intentional disregard and ONLY fines her $10,000 for calendar years 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006. If she is lucky, this blatant disregard for the law will only cost her $40,000.

Once again Jean Schmidt shows that she is either incompetent (and surrounded by completely incompetent advisers) OR she again shows she really doesn’t think the law applies to her. I’m sure the IRS and US Department of Justice will disagree with Schmidt’s “untouchable” persona.
