Liberal New Republic editor Jonathan Cohn admits that under Obamacare, the California networks have become exceedingly restrictive regarding doctors and hospitals. He even points out that one of Los Angeles’ finest hospitals, Cedars-Sinai, isn’t in the new Obamacare networks.

But don’t be upset, Cohn coos; Cedars-Sinai isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. And people just wanted to go there for the snob appeal, anyway, in order to hobnob with the rich and famous. […]

Cohn ignores the entire topic of liberty and choice, as though it is of no importance whatsoever. And to Cohn, perhaps it isn’t—at least, for other people. …

A hospital with no Obama voters mooching and having no intention of even looking at a bill... where the waiting room does not look like a Hernadez family reunion... sounds good to me.

Yes, I so much want to be in a hospital room built for two but stuffed with four, with at least two of them illegal aliens.

There are two children’s hospitals in Washington state. One of them (Seattle) is globally recognized for care and excellence.

You'll have the same if not better outcome at the "Clinica Médico" that at the Cedars-Sinai Oncology Department.

Typical liberal thinking. “The Gov’t Knows Better”. Frankly, I have to wonder if this whole thing isn’t going to result in an explosion of out-of-country Medical Tourism.

I suspect the same. It’s not like the government won’t know who’s gotten that cancer diagnosis or been found to have aortic stenosis. They’ll just suspend your passport or refuse to issue one.

Then what.

I suspect nothing will happen. I’m a cynic that way.
