Title: Should Gosnell and other Abortionists Suffer Financially?
Topic: Republicans Protecting Abortionists
Discussed by Andy Cochran
with The 7th Amendment Advocate (www.7thAmendmentAdvocate.org)
When abortionists harm their
patients, they do not fear having to pay monetary damages. Why?
One Federal Judge has stated: “…a better name for many state [med-mal] caps on
civil damages and any federal cap, would be ‘The Dr. Gosnell Abortion Butchers
Civil Protection Act’”.
Abortionists in Texas and other states do not fear being sued for medical
malpractice if they harm a patient. Why? Our medical-malpractice protection laws
shield them from civil liability. This is just plain wrong. Listen in…

Title: Why Are Women Protecting Gosnell?
Topic: Abortion
Discussed by Andy Cochran
with The 7th Amendment Advocate (www.7thAmendmentAdvocate.org)
It’s no secret that
medical malpractice is a big problem. But does it apply to abortion doctors?
And just what does medical malpractice reform (MMR) protect?
MMR really hasn’t done anything to help patients by removing the “bad apples”
from the tree. What MMR does is protect the doctor and the insurance company.
The topic of today is Dr. Gosnell, his clinic, and how he treated countless
women and babies. Will he be held accountable for his actions?
Log on to www.7thamendmentadvocate.org for more on this and other issues
involving our right to a trial by jury.

Title: Our Constitutional Rights are Being Stripped Away
Topic: Constitutional Rights
Discussed by Andy Cochran

Part 1 of 3
Crony Capitalists never quit trying to entice federal officials into giving
them special access and favors. What they can’t achieve in the market place,
they attempt to buy in DC.
Furthermore, CC’s have been moving to shut out millions of Americans from
exercising their 7th Amendment Right over bad products or services. All based on
one tiny, rarely read paragraph in consumer contracts.
Will the day soon come when there will be a sign on every grocery store saying
that purchasing food there constitutes an agreement to not sue it for spoiled,
poorly stored food that makes us sick?

The CC’s definitely have an

different story!
There are no due process standards, no guarantees that the applicable laws will

To protect
themselves, big businesses are forcing consumers into arbitration thru the use
of tiny print buried inside contracts and purchase agreements.
Our 7th Amendment right to a jury trial is vanishing before our very eyes thanks
in large part to an increased reliance upon alternate dispute resolutions and
mandatory arbitration.

Discussed by Andy Cochran

I think we can all agree that there are some pretty frivolous, and silly,

because of a handful of greedy people? They shouldn’t be!
So, why are states handicapping jurors in the amount of damages they can award?

Topic: Right to a Trial by Jury
Discussed by Andy Cochran
with The 7th Amendment Advocate (www.7thAmendmentAdvocate.org)
The 7th Amendment to the US
constitution gives American citizens the right to a trial by a jury. People can
also choose to leave their fate in the hands of just one judge or a panel of
judges. But sometimes this is a baaaaaaaaad idea.
This right is slowly being stripped from the American public and most people
don’t even realize it’s happening - and some are actually happy! Thanks to a few
greedy, money-hungry lawyers, all lawyers have been given a bad rap.
But what if your spouse, child, or parent were seriously hurt or killed due to
the negligence of a second party? Wouldn’t you want to get a fair amount for
their suffering or death? Some people don’t deserve $5 million. But some people
do.

James Madison,
Founding Father, described the right to a trial by a jury in civil cases “as
essential to secure the liberty of the people as any one of the pre-existent
rights of nature”.
James Mason, another Founding Father, refused to even the sign Constitution
until the 7th Amendment was added.
The Founding Fathers understood the importance of people’s right to a trial by a
jury. Let’s defend that right!

Too many politicians pick and

which is the right to a trial by jury? Too many regulations and caps have been

been disciplined; only 13% with 5 or more payouts have been disciplined. Why are
patients not protected by stiffer sanctions? Why do good doctors have to
subsidize the actions of bad doctors? Is the solution a “national shield of
protection” against malpractice lawsuits? Send us your comments by using our

Title: Has the U.S. Chamber and other big business interests been lying to the American Public?
Topic: Frivolous Lawsuits
Discussed by Andy Cochran
with The 7th Amendment Advocate (www.7thAmendmentAdvocate.org)
Has the U.S. Chamber, and other big business interests, been spending
millions of dollars for years brain-washing Americans that there is a ‘tsunami
of frivolous lawsuits’ plaguing our court system and plaguing economic growth?
Andy Cochran shines light on to the fact that Americans have been lied to for
years in an effort to close the court house doors to average Americans and to
shield big business from corporate responsibility. For more information log

Title: What is more important - gun ownership or free speech? What about the right to a trial by jury?
Topic: The Principal Author of Our US Constitution and Bill of Rights: James Madison
Discussed by Andy Cochran
with The 7th Amendment Advocate (www.7thAmendmentAdvocate.org)
What about the 6th and 7th
Amendments: the right to a trial by Jury? James Madison was our Fourth President
and America recently celebrated his 260th birthday. As the principal author of
the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, how important is the 1st Amendment, the
2nd Amendment and the 10th Amendment which conservatives and tea party activists
cling to so stridently? What about the 3rd through 9th Amendments, are they less
important? More information can be found at www.7thAmendmentAdvocate.org.

Title: Big Business and the Chamber of Commerce demand that Congress stop frivolous lawsuits. But are Judges calling for Congressional Action?
Topic: Frivolous Lawsuits
Discussed by Andy Cochran
with The 7th Amendment Advocate (www.7thAmendmentAdvocate.org)
It’s hypocritical for House Republicans to complain about “an overreaching
judiciary” that thwarts the will of the people and overturns their votes and
their values, and then turns around and overturns standards for judicial
decisions. You can’t have your cake and eat it, too! House Republicans pledged
“to honor the Constitution as constructed by its framers and honor the original
intent of those precepts”. Now, House Republicans are focused on dishonoring the
Founders and the independence of the Judiciary. For more, log onto

Title: Special Thanks to Congressman Tim Murphy
Topic: Say Thank You to an Elected Officials
Discussed by Andy Cochran
with The 7th Amendment Advocate (www.7thAmendmentAdvocate.org)
We often ask our elected officials to vote this way or that way. But how often
do we simply call them to say, “Thank You!” Congressman Tim Murphy, representing
the 18th District in Pennsylvania, has been fighting extra hard for the little
guy, the senior citizen, the average American. Our elected officials often
receive calls asking them to vote one way or another. But how often do they
receive a “Thank You” call for just doing a great job.
Let’s all call
Congressman’s Tim Murphy’s office and just tell him “Thank you for fighting for
the little guy, the senior citizen and the average American.” You can use the
capitol switchboard number at (202) 225.3121 and ask for Congressman Tim Murphy.

Title: Is Tort Reform Really That Important?
Topic: Constitutional Rights
Discussed by Andy Cochran
with The 7th Amendment Advocate (www.7thAmendmentAdvocate.org)
What Ronald Reagan Really Said About Tort Reform. Many people revere Ronald Reagan as the greatest president in modern history; so it may come as a surprise to you that Reagan never - not even once - proposed tort reform in any of his eight State of the Union (SOTU) addresses. Reagan wasn’t interested in limiting civil rights. In fact, Andy Cochran only found one reference to any type of tort reform mentioned by Reagan - in a 1986 speech at the Chamber of Commerce.

Warts and All –
America Is Still the Best. What Makes US Great? Our civil and
