The sign on Dr. Jack Cassell's door reads, "Changes to your health care begin right now. Not in four years," the Sentinel said.

Cassell, a urologist, told the newspaper that he's not turning anyone away.

"That would be unethical," he said. "But if they read the sign and turn the other way, so be it."

A registered Republican, Cassell is providing his patients with photocopies of a health-care timeline produced by Republican leaders that outlines "major provisions" in the health care law -- and he's placed a sign above the stack of copies that reads, "This is what the morons in Washington have done to your health. Take one, read it and vote out anyone who voted for it."

Cassell told the newspaper that a patient's politics wouldn't affect his care for them, but he added he would prefer not to treat people who support Obama.

To put it simply, “sometimes you just gotta do what you just gotta do”, “You gotta stand for something or you’ll fall for anything”.

Have to admire someone who will stand by their convictions.

"I just congratulated him on his guts."

I will do the same. I hope other doctors take a similar attitude.

This guy is well known here in the Orlando area. Good dude.

Four interesting facts:

1: Cool Hand Luke was written by man who had done time in jail in Lake County.

2: The towns written about in “Alas Babylon” were actually Mount Dora and nearby Tangerine

3: Local citizens build a secret, fully equipped 200 person fallout shelter.

4; Highland Street Cafe in Mount Dora serves best breakfast in Florida, and owner has head on Right!

It really is time for all of us to stand up and speak up regardless of what might happen to us as a result. During the Bush years, the left and the media caused too many conservatives to sit down and shut up even though we knew the truth of what was happening. Now it’s too late to worry about hurt feelings. Stand up and speak up before it’s too late for our kids to get to experience living in the greatest country in the world.

When my company had to lay off employees, I deliberately chose Obama supporters.
