Florida doctor tells Obama supporters: Go elsewhere for health care

The guy's wife is running for office in a super-Republican County. It's a bit of a stunt.

Having said that, while he of course is obliged to say he'd treat anyone, regardless of their political views, he maintains that he would prefer not to treat people who voted for Obama. Small comfort I imagine to his patients that would worry that he's less than enthusiastic about them based on who they voted for in an election, which seems to me to be a ridiculous basis to say who you would prefer to treat.

What is really interesting to me is the disconnect: he says its about health care. But note that he says he doesn't want to treat you if you voted for Obama. He doesn't say he bases it on whether you support the healthcare bill. Or whether you voted for any of the Democratic members of the Congress who supported it.

No, he doesn't want to treat you if you voted for Obama. I think that's what it's really all about. As is the political motivation of the GOP here, simply deny and disparage everything from or about Obama.

Sad.

so I guess you were shocked that Obama decided to try and take on healthcare? I thought he had mentioned it during the campaign but guess I was mistaken

Not yet he's not, people aren't fed up enough yet.

Hey LG, I'm very disturbed that I don't have universal legal representation. Would you support a law that dictates what a lawyer can charge for different cases?

The way I see it, legal care is waaaay too expensive these days, if I decide to go out and commit a crime, there is no way that I'll be able to afford an attorney. I think it is my God given right that I have a great attorney, not some inept public defender, but a rock star attorney at bargain basement prices. I'm sure that you'll agree that it is only fair and equitable that I get this representation for pennies on the dollar, right?

from late January 2001 to late January 2009, your side did everything it could to deny and disparage everything from or about Bush.
Now that the shoe is on the other foot, you want to cry and complain about the unfairness of it all. The troubling aspect of all this is that now you have an administration that has an inability to handle criticism and rather than actually respond to the criticism, it plays the race card and makes other attempts to silence dissent.

When guys like you make ridiculous statement such as this one, you certainly have to understand why you lose crediblility by making it, right? I am a democrat and NEVER disparaged W's character, but because other dems and liberals disparaged him means I must follow suit now that we have a dem president? Your side???? Your divisiveness is noted and after reading your posts for a couple of years, not surprising

Legally?? nothing Morally? he took an oath as a physician. It has nothing to do with Obama as some idiot posted. Pure redneck in it for the money

and where did he violate that oath? I haven't found an article where he is refusing anyone care.

Sorry but he's not going to lose his license just because a few people think it's "morally" wrong

If this doctor is serious, he needs his license pulled

I believe he's stated (and it's been posted) that he won't refuse anyone care but if someone sees the sign and decides to go elsewhere then so be it.

Why so reactionary?

Show me the doctors who have unfairly been forced out of practice?

They are coming...

The point is that you already are approaching a shortage of doctors that will need to be here to care for the Baby Boomers. So why add insult to injury by mandating that doctors either play ball with this new Obama madness or hit the bricks (which is what you suggested when you said they need their licenses pulled).
