Hubby (an MD) just got a phone call from a GA (we live in NC)

[mnhtnbb]

Congressman's office, Tom Price, calling all MD's about health care reform. Boy, did hubby
ever give the woman an earful, including his line that there's nothing in the Hippocratic Oath
that promises a six figure income.

Notice his BS poll on the right hand side of his page.

Poll of the Month
Would you support the creation of a government-run health care plan if you knew it had the potential to force you out of your personal, private coverage?
YES 9%
NO 91%

This must be what happens to you when all you do is watch Faux News. All you can do is generate
a Faux poll.

This guy is disgusting--but hey, he's a former orthopaedic surgeon so not a surprise.

1. Tell your husband thanks.

Price is my Congressman and he's about as backwards as the guys from the 1950s.

3. I will. He's been a supporter of single payer for years and years.

[Ron Green]

2. Orthopedics is one specialty that's particularly prone to bu$ine$$

in the place of medicine, along with radiology and a couple of others. This is just my observation over many years, nothing scientific here.

[Freddie Stubbs]

4. What is wrong with Orthopaedic Surgeons?

:shrug:

6. They're like contractors--and most of them are Repubs--for the body!

Their tools are nails, pins, hammers, saws, drills...

5. BS poll is right. The way it is worded. I wish they would stop

using the term government-run health care. It is really government-run health insurance.

7. That asshole should be forced out of office for that poll.

What a scumbag.

8. I thought it was pretty disgusting.
