i'm waiting for the day some doc what does transmogrification surgery to get sued by the thing they created saying "How could you do this to me??? Couldn't you see i was insane?????"This is the government taking control. Glad the doctors are speaking up. They are the front line in this.
Healine in near future. Obama Has Doctors Lives Ruined.
140 something days until Obama Care is gone
Good! I’m getting real sick of the heavy handed Federal Marxists.
This country is a GD Orwellian nightmare. Force a doctor to perform mutilating surgery? Josef Mengele is rolling in his grave wondering why he is hated.
Why can’t they just say “I’m not qualified to perform this particular surgery”?
What? Wait, What? Government mandated sex changes on children? What the hell is going on?
I assume this is the more updated communist way of getting rid of doctors. A sexier version of sending them out of the cities, taking away their eyeglasses, and forcing them to farm.
Seriously, what kind of sick f#@k would allow their child to undergo a gender transition procedure? What is wrong with people?
Isn’t communism great?
Compulsion to contract is illegal, it always has been, and for good reason: it’s slavery. Slaves do what they’re told. PPACA makes us all slaves of the government.
REVOLT. Don’t pretend that PPACA is law, it’s been mutilated by attorney John “It’s a tax” Roberts and is not anything passed by Congress but a toxic stew with all manner of garbage added in. It’s been a lie from day one, a lie spawned by scheming Chicago communists.
It’s hard to even believe we are having this discussion. That and bakers getting fined for not baking a cake, kids getting told they can use whatever restroom they want, arrest threatened for folks who say climate change is a scam, etc. I can’t even recognize the USA anymore.
i'm waiting for the day some doc what does transmogrification surgery to get sued by the thing they created saying "How could you do this to me??? Couldn't you see i was insane?????"Obama dragged the Little Sisters of the Poor through the courts for five years, and eventually lost.
This is how Obama works. Never admit defeat.
Those perversions, plus illegal immigrants and refugees, will soon be the only ones assured medical coverage.
Aw, horsepuckey. How can anyone force you to perform an operation?
Just tell ‘em, “I ain’t doing it. Ball’s in your court, now.”
Y’all need to read the article.
This Obama diktat is aimed at gynocologists and urologists.
It would require doctors to perform procedures, and even surgeries, **on demand** from transgenders, in violation of both the doctors’ religious beliefs AND their medical judgement.
According to the article, Obama’s order says doctors may no longer refuse to perform, for example, “medically necessary” hysterectomies for “trans men” ie biological women.
IOW, according to normal (sane) medical practice, a doctor might recommend a hysterectomy when a woman’s uterus is diseased; OTOH he might refuse to perform the procedure on demand, as a means of sterilization, cautioning the woman that it is permanent; she might change her mind and want children later.
He relies on his best judgement and ethics. Some doctors would choose to do it for the money. But most would refuse.
Now, under Obamalaw, a mentally ill woman who believes herself a man and demands a hysterectomy—or worse, a parent demands it for a child—and the doctor cannot refuse.
Obama has decreed that if the tranny FEELS it’s “medically necessary” then it is.
This is similar to requiring doctors to perform abortions under “women’s health care.”
That’s what the doctors and states are suing to stop.
The doctor is the one who should determine what is “medically necessary” not the dictator.
The article also notes that the Obama’s directive at present only applies to doctors in private practice; the Medicare / Medicaid committee has decreed that the efficacy of tranny surgery as treatment for gender dysphoria is “inconclusive.”
Reading between the lines, though, the committee probably fears a taxpayer revolt.
Gotta force the doctors on board, first.
Those of you who are saying this isn’t a problem “yet” and “it won’t affect many people” need to wake up.
The LGBTers said that about gay marriage, too. They said if you’re not gay just don’t marry a gay and it won’t affect you.
Now they’re teaching felching to school kids.
