Don't Be Shocked When Your Doctor Asks About Guns
The Rush Limbaugh Show ^ | November 19, 2013 | Rush Limbaugh

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Jesse, somewhere in Texas. I have one minute, but I wanted to get to you. Hi.

CALLER: Hi, Rush. Mega Air Force brat dittos.

RUSH: Thank you.

CALLER: I wanted to call and let you know that I'm working in health care. I'm actually a comptroller for a hospital, but I'd heard rumors this was happening. My wife last week had a family doctor appointment with an OBGYN, and one or two of the mandatory questions she was asked is, "Do you own a gun in your house, and do you keep it loaded in your house?" They would not register her as a patient until she answered that question.

RUSH: Now, you had heard that was coming, but you didn't know it was real until yesterday?

CALLER: Well, 'til last week when my wife had that appointment.

RUSH: Last week.

CALLER: She came home and I was shocked.

RUSH: You were shocked, even though you had heard about it before?

CALLER: I heard rumors, but I was like, "There's no way a health care provider is going to ask that kind of question."

RUSH: Unless they are mandated to by the federal government.

CALLER: Well, and I figure it's part of Obamacare, but just the sheer fact that they asked the question and they wouldn't even let her register as a patient until she answered the question blew my mind.

RUSH: Right. Well, that's the tip of the iceberg of the things that they're gonna know about everybody who signs up.

I’ve been asked at the ER, Do you feel safe at home.

Yes, I do. That's because I keep a loaded semiautomatic beside my bed.

Just lie and say NO.

Ever buy a hunting license? Those idiots will find out and probably charge you for Felony Lying on a Federal Obama care form, throw you in jail for a year, break down your door, take you guns, and shoot you dog.

I don’t hunt. I won’t be signing-up for 0care. I’m unemployed, retired, zero income, going on SSI, a smoker, and all my pets are gone. I’m good to Go Galt to Montana.

When we moved to Tennessee and filled out initial paperwork at our doctor’s office, the gun question was on the form. Tennessee... go figure.

ROTFLMAO!

Do no mirrors exist in your current environment?
As you make a concerted attempt to take this thread off topic again...and try to shut me up.

But it's nice to have you on record as an individual who lies easily, whenever you deem it suits your personal interests.
Am I being snarky again in stating truth? LOL!

I tried to look up your “digsuting” term and couldn't find it in any dictionary.

Is it arrogant of me to point out my newly found disdain of you, after all your efforts to personally attack me?

(Notice I refrained from characterizing the attacks as the “F” word.)

YOU took the thread off topic. YOU jumped in and added your nasty comments in support of one FR’s rejection of another’s presence! YOU have made the thread about YOU!Now if anyone is offended by your derogatory, supercilious attitude and calls you on it, WE have diverted the thread?
You either don’t realize, or don’t care, that you are making the thread about YOU and degrading people who agree with you on the topic! AND you LAUGH about it. You’re coming across as seriously unbalanced.

Please start a blog and make it all about you, then invite only those you deem to be your equals. You’ll have to use that mirror.
NO ONE wants to ‘shut you up’ about the TOPIC-but your derision of fellow Freepers is uncalled for and angers people. That IS your intention,isn’t it? Classic bully behavior-pick,pick,pick-then when someone swings back, scream ‘victim’.You truly expect to be able to run through threads insulting others and never be called on it! People like you have driven long-time Freepers from this site-and it shows in the slow fundraising.
MY end of this discourse is over.
Rant on-you have my pity.

None of your doctor’s business. Do not answer.
