WASHINGTON -- President Obama yesterday rolled out the red carpet -- and handed out doctors' white coats as well, just so nobody missed his hard-sell health-care message.
In a heavy-handed attempt at reviving support for health-care reform, the White House orchestrated a massive photo op to buttress its claim that front-line physicians support Obama.
A sea of 150 white-coated doctors, all enthusiastically supportive of the president and representing all 50 states, looked as if they were at a costume party as they posed in the Rose Garden before hearing Obama's pitch for the Democratic overhaul bills moving through Congress.
OOPS! A crowd of 150 doctors gathers in the Rose Garden to support the health-care overhaul -- as White House staffers scramble to hand out camera-ready white coats to those who forgot their own.
The physicians, all invited guests, were told to bring their white lab coats to make sure that TV cameras captured the image.
But some docs apparently forgot, failing to meet the White House dress code by showing up in business suits or dresses.
So the White House rustled up white coats for them and handed them to the suited physicians who had taken seats in the sun-splashed lawn area...

I prefer wise Latina doctors.
"Mr. President, these people are here to help you. Please slip into the nice white coat they've brought for you, and come along quietly now."
They are so used to the UNIONS giving out the T-SHIRTS at Rallies, this is the logical next step......YUK....such children and amateurs and POSERS.
You Jammed Up the White House Phone Lines Monday
Also note: 1000 turned up for the "Million Med March last Thursday.
Bet they didn’t RUSTLE up white Coats...bet they bought them ahead of time.
I also bet that the pony tailed guy is Patch Adams. He's an avowed commie...
Maybe Saturday Night Live will use their newly-found courage to mock Obama by making a parody of this white-coated-doctor sham (although it's a pretty good parody all by itself)...
Wow, I am impressed, "A sea of 150 white-coated doctors" resurrected Goebbels, who died in 1945.
Did Obama say...
“If you like your doctor, you
Can keep your Doctor?”
I’m not sure on this...
Has he addressed this before?
I can’t remember.
And Five Hundred Mill
From Medicare Fraud and Waste
Sounds pretty darn good...
You know what they say...
“Two Hudredth Time is a Charm!”...
I am now convinced!
They were all doctors, huh?
PhD’s in education, PhD’s in Social Sciences, PhD’s in Political Science and PhD’s in Home Economics.
I doubt there was a bonafide practicing Medical Doctor among them.
My wife is a general surgeon in private practice. She does not wear a white “lab coat” while making rounds or seeing patients in the office. It is light blue, to distinguish the family practice docs in the group who wear dark blue. This is s joke!!!! Except too many dumb, misinformed Obama supporters (are there any other types?) will not see the charade.
Card carrying SEIU members, perhaps?
"Uhh, Mr. President? Your photo-op with the doctors is at three o'clock. This is your two o'clock..."
Yer right! There are doctorates in just about any subject you can think of. My Pastor has a doctorate but I wouldn't go see him about the corn on my little toe.
"So let me get this straight: you put the lime in the coconut, mix 'em both together, put the lime in the coconut, then you feel better?"
This, ladies and gentlemen, is how our president “operates”. PATHETIC!
