I posted this on another thread the other day about Murthy:
Murthy was virulently anti-Second Amendment & considered guns a health care issue. Very glad hes gone. Dr. Murthy was Obamas kind of guy - I remember when he was confirmed, it about made me sick (no pun intended).
Dr. Vivek Hallegere Murthy is the president and founder of Doctors for America, which grew from the campaign organization that was called Doctors for Obama, started in 2008. The organization has advocated for a number of liberal initiatives, including strongly supporting the passage of Obamacare and Medicaid expansion.
The group has also been supportive of the Obama administrations failed push for expanding gun control laws in 2013. It successfully fought a proposed Florida law that would have prevented doctors from including in a persons medical file whether they are a gun owner. Doctors for America has referred to guns as a public health threat, and circulated a petition to pressure Congress to pass stricter gun laws.
Total political hack. I never read about a single thing he contributed or improved during his tenure. I know a member of his extended family who was bragging about his position, big whoop.
