A reporter for the St. Augustine Record was able to sit in with a group of local doctors as they listened to the Obama sales pitch about health care.
[Read the entire story here.]
There were three very interesting reactions.
1. They all laughed at the fact that he wants to reform Health Care without Tort reform. [That would mean he would have to give back all that money he got from the trial lawyers]
2. One of the doctors is from Canada. He is horrified by the Obama plan because he, from personal experience, sees the same things in the Obama plan that he dealt with in Canada. He says, “I’ve had individuals in my family who have lived in Canada, who are dead, who could have been treated for a few dollars- could have been treated in the worst hospital in the United States by a third-year medical student and be alive today.”
3. One doctor speaks of Obama’s uninformed statements about unnecessary tonsillectomies overblown estimates of surgery costs, he doesn’t trust the President to lead health care reform. He asked “”When you have somebody so misinformed about tonsillectomies and amputation {reimbursements}, how can you trust what he says is true?,”
I think this is a good example of Obama and his health care.
