Doctors from all 50 states come to support reform. White House Photo, Lawrence Jackson, 10/5/09

Love the lab coats.

Adds just the right touch of staging, don't it?

I actually first heard about this from a 6 year old I was driving to work, yesterday afternoon, after picking him up from his school along with his sister (I teach gymnastics, and they both take classes). He asked me why the president was with doctors (he must have seen this on tv at school, or something). I had no idea what he was referring to, but said it probably had to do with healthcare reform (as opposed to President Obama being in need of medical attention).

USA TODAY:

President Obama recruited a group of doctors today to help make a final push of health care through Congress.

"The reason these doctors are here is because they have seen firsthand what's broken about our health care system," Obama said, referring to his guests from all 50 states who converged on the White House Rose Garden.

This really is amateur hour at the White House. It’s like high schoolers are coming up with all their ideas. Incredible. I’d love to know who said,, make sure they all wear lab coats. Utterly amateur.

The amount of staging Democrats do is unbelievable. They manipulate everything because the truth is never good enough. It is easier to find a lost tooth in the bottom of the ocean then to find an honest Democrat.

Yeah. sure. All doctors wear their lab coats everywhere.

The image consultants in this Administration are just as horrendously bad as the "czars" and cabinet officers.

Amateur Night. 24/7.

Worse - the White House actaully handed out numerous white lab coats to those not wearing one - who’s to say they were all real doctors?

Reminds me when I read about how Evita Peron had parades with nurses marching, smartly dressed, nails manicured and in matching lipstick. Then the author goes “yet no one knew where they had recieved their training and experience.”

It’s all a parade.

I don’t recognize an Indian in the bunch....
They were probably seeing patients......

Maybe DR’s but apparently NOT MD’s....

Don’t see a stethoscope in the house, a real GP would be more likely to have a stethoscope and a thermometer in his pocket....and a nurse in the area

There was a picture floating around earlier showing the white house staff passing out the lab coats to the doctors. So F’N PHONY, this administration.

Brilliant Doctors, all...NOT!!

Per an IBD (Investors Business Daily) survey; 2/3rds of the country's MDs say ØbozoCare is a disaster AND 45% of the same lot say they would seriously consider 'retiring or quitting' their practice if or when ØbozoCare is a reality.

Hmmmmm!!

Really. If I could do that photoshop thing, I would top each "doctor" with a toque. Instant kitchen staff meeting.

Awesome. I hope they all quit. Reminds me of Paterson the Fore Sighted raising taxes on businesses in NY that only operated part-time and forcing Rush, Golisano, and scores of others to flee the state. PS...Did you hear expected revenues are down 36 percent? Bwa-ha-ha.

He asked me why the president was with doctors (he must have seen this on tv at school, or something).

Exactly how much face time is Obama getting with the students? And how much of this is done behind the back of parents?
