Everything that took place next is based on hearsay, as written by Jordan, and his story is absurd. (That is what happens when people do not tell the truth.) He claims that an (as yet) unidentified person or persons at Humana then voluntarily forwarded the letter to an (as yet) unidentified person or persons at an (as yet) unidentified location at “CMS”. According to Jordan, he then received a phone call from an (as yet) unidentified person or persons from CMS, advising him that the “answers” were the same. Jordon refused to specify what the answers were, or what questions these “answers” were in response to.
I voiced my concern about this via a phone call with John Gonzalez, Bean’s Chief of Staff, on June 30, 2005. Gonzalez told me that he would look into the matter and get back to me after the Fourth of July holiday, but I did not hear from him again.
It might be unreasonable for Bean to be held accountable for the actions of her caseworker, but she has to be accountable for her chief of staff. Unfortunately, Bean has not been made accountable for much of anything. If Congresswoman Bean is concerned about congressional accountability, she should start by being accountable for herself and her congressional staff.
