Doctors demand Obama apology
Pitching government control, President falsely accuses doctors of conspiring to make children sicker
WASHINGTON -- Dr. Richard S. Kerr, M.D., a West Virginia Libertarian Party member and a retired doctor with 36 years experience, asked President Barack Obama Thursday to apologize for comments made in his Wednesday night press conference accusing doctors of conspiring to make children sicker for profits.
President Obama should be ashamed of himself for trying to scare Americans into supporting his government takeover of medicine by falsely accusing doctors of making children sicker. I have never heard a more disgusting or blatantly phony conspiracy theory. We treat our patients with the respect, care and concern you will never find in Obamas government-run rationed care bureaucracy, said Dr. Kerr.
On behalf of my colleagues, I respectfully ask President Obama to apologize for such a slanderous lie and ask him to stop engaging in sickening conspiracy theories to push his government-run scheme. These cheap scare tactics are beneath the dignity of the office of The President and perfectly illustrate why more and more Americans are losing faith in Barack Obama.
In his Wednesday night press conference, Obama claimed, you come in and you've got a bad sore throat, or your child has a bad sore throat or has repeated sore throats, the doctor may look at the reimbursement system and say to himself, you know what, I make a lot more money if I take this kid's tonsils out.
For President Obamas information, pediatricians do not perform tonsillectomies. If he doesnt know that, then he has no business centrally planning your familys health care, said Dr. Kerr.

Good one.
So according to Pres. Urkel a doctor is going to perform a surgical procedure on a kid that will require postoperative visits for 90 days INCLUDED in his anticipated $270-290 fee when that same doctor can be giving this child palliative decongestants and parent demanded antibiotics for a course of 4-5 visits compenstaed at $75-150 per visit AND STILL NEEDING A TONSILLECTOMY in the future.
I don’t know how you run a business Mr President .....oh never mind, I forgot you never ran anything in your life.
IIRC, decades ago physicians found that children with continuous allergy problems were sometimes (maybe often) cured of their allergy problems when their tonsils were removed. It has something to do with the immunoglobulin response triggered by otherwise non-offending allergens irritating the tonsils.
Just before putting us to sleep with his droning, he swallowed a bucket load of those Happy-Pretend Blue Pills.
Who is left Obama that you really give a sh*t about?
Any American...and who's listed in Napolitano's DHS report:Military Vets and those who believe in the 10th Amendment.
Wasn’t Obama the one who said as Clinton did that people who try to make you afraid are lying to you? But that was when he was trying to get elected on a very poor security platform and his stance on terrorism was shake hands play nice hope and change ...
Now it’s scare the hell out of them, it’s the only way we can get what we want?
Let’s see: gun owners, christians, ex-military, business owners, doctors and now cops. Who’s next to be vilified by his off-the-cuff remarks. He better stick to the tele-prompter next time.
Just goes to show what kind of people in the won’s orbit.
Too rich!
How is that hope & change working out, OBAMA?!
Good thing Obama played the race card at the end of the “press conference,” otherwise, this would have been the story everyone was talking about today.
[Setting: Healer's apartment]
TOR: (Pouring tea) Your tea is ready now. This will solve your so-called tonsil problem. It's a special concoction. It contains crampbark.
JERRY: I love crampbark.
TOR: Cleavers.
JERRY: Cleaver, I once had cleaver as a kid. I was able to lift a car.
TOR: And some couchgrass.
JERRY: Couchgrass and crampbark? You know, I think that's what killed Curly.
(Tor hands George the tea. George isn't willing to drink it right away. Jerry looks skeptical, Kramer, on the other hand, is enthusiastic)
RE: “Wow! Barry Hussein ain’t making no brownie points for himself.....Uh oh,is that a racist comment?”
******
Nope; not racist that I can see — ever heard of or tasted BUTTERSCOTCH, i.e., blond brownies!!! ;)
Unlike the media and those who worship the man, I never thought Obama was smart. Just crafty and cunning. But totally inexperienced in playing the political game like a pro. At least the Clintons weathered a few years before they exposed themselves for the manipulaters and liars they are. Obama didn't even make it through the campaign before all the signs were there.
He was just a "front man" for the hate-America/far left-wingers who advocate a communistic society and have groomed him since 2004. They thought they picked a winner. But, Zero's has no tact, cannot think on his feet, and is too much of a whiner to endure contraversy. His inexperience will prove to destroy their plans and his future.
Let him keep this up. The country will have their eyes fully opened soon enough. There's nothing better than watching a narcissist hang himself - and take others down with him.
Did a quick internet search and found this . . .
“He has to test each batch of kool-aid to ensure it has enough denial serum.”
Coming soon—TV ads inviting people who had their tonsils out to sue the doctors responsible. Could be another goldmine for trial lawyers.
>distracts me when I try to force myself to watch him<
Count your blessings!
BUMP!
This is what happens when one is not presidential.
Then he accused doctors of running up bills & perform tonsillectomy's just to rack up higher bills to the patient and/or insurance companies, he spent his first 5-10 minutes complaining that he inherited a financial crisis (blamed on Bush for sure) he engaged in class warfare against the rich, etc etc.
The wheels are coming off on the commie bastard's wagon, and I think the public and even some liberals elements of the media are waking up to the evil actions of this SOB.
