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.

So hes pissed off conservatives, independents, doctors, cops...who is next?
Leftists??
The elderly.
Is Obambi in some kind of foot race with Biden for how many verbal faux pas can be racked up in a week?
O’s polish is starting to wear off...
That is funny, for me what creeps me out is his shiny pink tinted eye lids. I mean, a pink that is natural on a 60’s car not on a human body.
I was wondering today who is his makeup artist, because they are really blowing it.
Incredible statement by even the faux President. In the world of Obama ANY private enterprise is corrupt and dirty...but GOVERNMENT enterprises are noble and clean.
That's for sure. It might well be the most bizarre and paranoid accusation I've ever heard from a President on camera. The man's contempt for others is staggering.
It almost sounds like something that would come from the kook Jeremiah Wright's pulpit.
