Majority of doctors support public option

[swampy]

My post and link to Kanesa was to show there are other polls with different data, Ted. Not ALL doctors favor the current reform proposals. Not ALL doctors are members of the AMA. Not ALL data gets published in the Med journal.

BTW... my family physician has said he will close his practice if any of the currently proposed legislation is passed. That may mean nothing to you, but it hits pretty close to home for me and others who rely on him.

So your family physician is a tool who doesn't care about his patients. Big surprise.

Why would you post something like that, $tevie? You don't know my family doctor yet you feel free to pass judgment on him. You just have to lash out don't you? And you think I'm an angry person?

[$tevie]

I don't appreciate physicians trying to blackmail the American public into making do with the status quo. Yeah, it makes me angry. I think he should quit right now if he has no motivation or interest in doctoring people.

There you go again, $tevie. You don't know Jack sh*t about my doctor. He's not blackmailing anybody. He still makes house calls for God's sake! Who the hell are you to judge him?

Maybe the only doctors you know are ones with no motivation or interest in treating people. Who is your doctor blackmailing?

[$tevie]

My doctor isn't having hissy fits because of health care reform, and she sure as hell ain't telling her patients that she is going to abandon them because of it. My doctor is going to be my doctor long after yours has retired like a sulking baby.

Swampy, you are the one who said he'd quit healing and helping people if this act passes. It wasn't $tevie it was you who said your doctor cared more about something other than caring for his patients.

Nice.
