King Obama is really nuts. He is like a 10 year boy with a new toy. Power hungry and probably the most dangerous a@@ this Country has ever seen in its history. He is destroying America.

How long did this yahoo practice anyway? I know in the Tenn Medical community Dr. Frist had an excellent reputation but I have never heard anyone mention Deans practice.

Somehow that doesn’t surprise me. I have seen a lot of residents come and go. Education doesn’t mean anything if you don’t have common sense. I have seen a lot of smart docs fall on their face. He just seems like he would be one to fit in that category.

King Obama is really nuts. Obama has brought back so many of the "Clinton People"
Why hasn't he brought back Jaquelin Elders as Surgeon General?
