How is ownership of firearms related to requiring a colonoscopy?

If they do, my response will be "I don't talk about that. I don't want to spoil the surprise."

My doctor’s office already does ask about ownership of firearms.

No one in their right mind will sign up to be a doctor from about last year through the unforseeable future.

Taking care of oneself will be primary. The obese will be under the bus- they’re there already, they just don’t know it.

Doctors should have been way out in front on this and this article is four years late.

But the AMA is a pro abortion group. Always has been. That’s against the Hip. Oath.

They sold their souls to this and the future of medicine as it was in the U.S. was over on Nov 6th.

They have only themselves to blame.

We are on our own.

Prevention, diet, wound treatment, antibiotic treatment, exercise, knowledge of disease symptoms and treatment etc. Get with the program.

This MD is just whining.

Is there a link to Dr. Weiss’ notice, as posted? That would be instructive, I think.

I have a great doc. When I come in to see him, (maybe once a year), he asks me how I’m doing, checks everything up and then sends me on my way. If the law prevents him from being a better doctor, he just does what he should be doing.

Ah, but “health” is whatever your new owners think “health” is about. It doesn’t matter if our kids want to be checked for strep throat; they are our kids and will get the medical tests we say they will get.

Now we have a new mama, and she alone will decide what “health” issues we see a doctor for.

That’s what Obamacare is about.

Every time I read something like this, I am astounded by how awesome my doctor is.

Unfortunately, I believe this plays right into the hand held by the (ObamaZombie) collectivists.

Not enough doctors? Okay, lets mandate a lowering of standards such that more “deserving” students can play doctor.

That also serves the redistribution plan because now these pseudo-doctors can make a “living wage” just like all those successful doctors that graduated at higher standards (and left the profession in disgust!)

Back when Obamacare first was discussed, my husband asked our doctor what he thought about it. Doc said “it will be good for you and good for me”. Wonder if he still feels that way?

I am now mandated by the government to talk to you about your weight, exercise, family life, smoking, sexual abuse(!), and even to ask if you wear seat belts. And I am mandated to record your answers.

Coming soon, obligated to ask if you are a gun owner - some pediatricians already do, though they are not yet mandated to do so.

Obamacare is the dream of the Marxist Worker's Paradise.

Vladimir Lenin said it best: "The key to Marxism is medicine."

I don’t know if it’s a new law or just some new recommended standard, but it is on all the forms at ob/gyn and pediatricians these days.

Seems to be inescapable. I write nunya in the space.

Only as it applies to Were wolves, but not colonoscopies...

I am more convinced every day that there is some yet "uncoded" language in Zer0-care which will totally defeat the whole bill.

This 2700 page "thing" was written by morons, supported by morons, passed by morons and signed by a moron....so what could go wrong here?

...it may take a few months and a lot of anguish, gnashing of teeth and further wasting of money to find the solution, but its there...staring everybody in the face.

When this "trap door" is found, the regime will quickly move to close it, but hey, this ain't 2009-2010...the regime doesn't have us by the short hairs anymore...the "door" will be impossible to close....(unless, of course, our fearless Speaker doesn't throw us under the bus like our fearless CJ did)

...but, sigh....this may be the ramblings and dreams of an old man, just wishing...and hoping that my grandchildren's life will be better than mine, and my life has been good...
