Dr. Benjamin is perplexing ...

[muawiyah]

What about eating their enemies' raw livers? Does she agree doctors need to be taught that?

Just how primitive and barbaric can these Democrats go ~ can't be much further.

[Cheetahcat]

Another Minority Pick??

[EagleUSA]

Obama continues to pick every misfit he can to pander to his radical, far-left fringe supporters.

[ex-snook]

Maybe if supporters marry gays and the straights have abortions they will self-destruct.

I remember the good old days when surgeons general just worried about whether kids were learning how to masturbate properly.

Remember, it's not real wanking unless it is government approved and regulated wanking.

[subterfuge]

Maybe doctors should be trained in torture techniques too?

[pogo101]

I’d need to know more. I tend to believe even pro-life OB/GYNs should know how to perform the extremely rare “truly life-saving” abortion, i.e., where the continuation of the pregnancy is likely to kill the mother and there is no other option. But again, those are extremely rare.

The natural inference is that the nominee wanted docs to learn abortions for the sake of routine “birth control.”

[rightly_dividing]

I posted a good word for her on another thread earlier. If she is in support of abortion, then I am not in support of her. Not that my support is one that would make a differance anyway.

As they say, "one uh oh erases all your atta boys"

[tbpiper]

Joycelyn II??

[albie]

Any Doctor that performs an abortion except to protect the Mother’s life has gone against his hippocratic oath and should have his license taken away. That being said, I’m sure that this quack from Alabama will urge Dr’s to perform euthanasia on ANYONE with ANY affliction that will not be of future benefit to BO’s Marxist regime.

[Nachum]

The list, ping

[Da Coyote]

The Obamaloon checklist.

Make a list ordered by talent.

Start going down the list...and down....and down.....and down.

Ah! Here’s a leftie.

Pick ‘em and clean up their viva so that they appear to have a brain.

Could she be this big of a statement of contradiction? Some things are not adding up, here.

On one hand:
She's: Catholic; a board member of the Catholic Health Association of the US; received the papal honor Pro Ecclesia et Pontifice from Pope Benedict XVI; received the National Caring Award; says the Church was always a very important part of my life; says she is carrying on the healing ministry of Christ; etc.

And on the other hand:
She is on the board of directors of Physicians for Human Rights, which promotes the performing of abortions in other nations and has called for the US to ratify the CEDAW treaty.

We need more information on her.

[freekitty]

I am really ill now.

So much for "First, do no harm...".

Or how about the Hippocratic Oath (before it was "updated")...

I will not give a lethal drug to anyone if I am asked, nor will I advise such a plan; and similarly I will not give a woman a pessary to cause an abortion.

[justiceseeker93]

If I heard correctly on Rush Limbaugh's show today, Dr. Benjamin has stated that she believes that doctors' practices should not be making profits. Does she think that doctors should all be "professional" slaves? And by implementing such an idea, what quality of doctors would she expect to be produced in this country? She seems to fit Obama's perverse plans perfectly and will be a fitting partner in carrying out his initiative to destroy the best health care system in the world.

[bperiwinkle7]

This just grieves my heart so much, that I can hardly address this, but my son is headed for Medical School.

Can someone really be forced to kill another human being? I just feel like throwing up at the thought of these monsters in charge of our country. MONSTERS. OBAMA MONSTERS.
