Ear, nose, and throat surgeons to Obama: Sometimes the tonsils have to come out, champ

Ghoulish, unethical, profit-seeking quacks would say that, though, wouldn’t they? Let’s see what they think once they’ve got a community organizer with four years of federal policy experience riding herd on them. There’s a new sheriff in town, bloodsuckers!

[Mom MD]

I didn’t weigh in on this thread, because I’m sounding like a broken record lately. I went out to lunch with 3 other physicians this afternoon, and the talk among the 4 of us at the table drifted to Obamacare. We all agreed that we have worked our last day the day Obamacare becomes a reality. We will not be government employees! We will also not work for less that we are already making, with more regulation. I will not work in a nationwide VA system. (If you have never dealt with the VA system, its a thing of beauty, all right.)

[Scotswife]

I thought there was a thread around here not too long ago about Great Britain and epidurals.

I think the issue might already have come up w/ Obamacare.

Basically - tough it out chickies - it’s all in our heads anyway I’m sure!

[rcrngroup]

“Hey Obama, you stupid moron, the only procedure I know of that is totally unnecessary, has a fifty percent mortality rate AND is guaranteed to be covered in your healthcare plan without rationing is abortion.”

GREAT POINT!!! I'm going to use it on my libtard left-wing idiot congressman Tim Waltz MN-S, Amy Klobuchar - Senator MN-D and...... (I'm ashamed to say this), Al Franken, the new senator BUFFOON ASS-HOLE from MN-D

Still running slow

[Mom MD]

about the sames. Underworked and overpaid (/s)
But at least I can take a break and freep on days off (housework? what housework?) ;-)

80% plus are happy with their healthcare now

Blue-Dogs say Pelosi does not have the votes

This is a life-death issue

Blue-Dogs, RINOS, others in Congress - plus Obama -

Do you want us telling you what doc and care and treatments you can or cannot get?

You are exempting yourself - and illegal aliens

We pay the freight

Do you want to kill our Gramma and make us very angry?

You may think you can control us and live high on the hog

We will go after you on profiteering from healthcare connections and everything else

We will boot your butts out on the street and put you in the Graybar Hotel - or mucho worse

Go ahead

Make my day

Hum the theme from M*A*S*H now.....

[boycott_msm]

Bend Over knows what he’s talking about because he stayed at a Holiday Inn the night before he gave this medical advice. s/

[potlatch]

Are you talking to me?

[CougarGA7]

Quite honestly, I’m thinking of having my tonsils removed again just to be defiant of the anointed one.

[laxcoach]

Ok I’m going to be the heartless [male appendage] in the group.

I know a lot of doctors. Almost every single one of them was FOR Obama and cited health care reform as the reason.

So we now have a growing list of targets from the Dems:
big oil - rapes us on energy
big drugs - rapes us on drugs
big finance - rapes us in the markets
big health insurance - rapes us on medical care
big lobbyists - soil our fine gov’t reps
big C-whatever-Os who make too much - rapes every busines
anyone making more than 250k - takes too much of the income pie

now doctors. the people who save lives and do it with the threat of liability for every minor decision.

I foresee a day soon where they will propose that instead of being paid by the procedure/visit, we just give docs a flat fee. I’m serious. That’ll save us money and these nasty, money grubbing, wink-wink [mostly jewish] doctors won’t be able to take little johnnies tonsils out to make an extra buck.

My question is, will they make more than Congressmen? And will they still need liability insurance?

Note who isn’t on the list. Lawyers.

So, doctors rejoice. Will you remember to say “careful what you wish for” to the next group of targets?

Under obamacare, we’d all be living that Seinfeld episode where George goes to the healer and turns green after drinking some concotion.

FR is connecting slow for me too

Yeah - I stay away from any meds or treatments that are not needed

Gates’ daughter sounds like a New Black Pantheress -

“Show me the money!”

The photos and audios could drop Gates from some sort of dangerous rig

America is fed up with these race-pimps

Obama has doomed his Peeps

[Son-Joshua]

Imagine being treated by a doctor who’se as qualified to practice as Obama practicing being president? What a minute, aren’t certain people permitted into medical school because of their ethnicity versus grades?

[FourPeas]

Ugh, it's amazing people still listen to our president and take anything he says seriously.

When I was a kid in the 1960’s, my pediatrician waited until I could no longer hear before he recommended taking out my tonsils. My kid didn't have to go through the hassle, or me through through nights sitting beside his bed listening to him breath, or rather the gaps in his breathing. Oh, we still had to jump through hoops, but decent tort reform would solve that problem.

[FR is connecting slow for me too]

Better since I ran a scan but I’m going to give up and leave soon. I’m sick of all Obama, all the time.

Sickobama

LOL!

Me too

I believe Rahmbo told Obama to race-hype the Gates stuff to divert from the bad press on healthcare

It backfired bigtime

He drew the Joker

[potlatch]

[Sickobama
LOL!
Me too]

I don’t think so.

[3catsanadog]

I had my tonsils out when I was 11. Back then parents would soothe our fears by telling us that after the surgery we couldn’t eat anything but popsicles and ice cream.

When he goes away I will not miss him

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

I really think Obama is too busy giving professional advice to law enforcement officers to be giving professional advise to surgeons.
