Did Barack Obama Just Demonize Your Doctor … The One Accuses Dr’s of Putting Profit over Patient Care
Who do you trust with your life, doctors or the government?
No he did not just say that …
America, who do you trust more to do the right thing when it comes to your, your parents, your family and your children’s health care … your doctor or the government? Last night President Barack Obama accused doctors of making health care decisions based on fee reimbursement schedules vs. the patents care. UNREAL!!! Obama made a blanket statement that doctors did not necessarily do What’s best for the patients care.
Check out the video at The Gateway Pundit to hear for yourself.
So how does the health care community feel this morning as the Commander & Chief, the President of the United States basically said that doctors are more concerned with over charging patients and gaming the system than they are providing proper health care to their patients. Hello doctors, hello AMA, he just called you greedy and frauds.
Do some doctors commit fraud, certainly they do. However, to make such a generalization and bad mouth the entire health care community is as irresponsible as it gets.
As Sundries Shack states, Obama has a new health care cry … Save the Tonsils!!!
That is not a joke. Here’s the video. The ridiculous tonsil example shows up at about the 2:00 mark.
Obama turns health care focus to families, voters
Six months in office, President Barack Obama sought to rally support for sweeping health care legislation Wednesday night as Congress struggled to find agreement on a historic overhaul. He vowed to reject any measure “primarily funded through taxing middle-class families.”
At a prime-time news conference, Obama defended his decision to set a midsummer deadline for the House and Senate to act, even if it isn’t met. “I’m rushed because I get letters every day from families that are being clobbered by health care costs, and they ask me can you help,” he said.
The stakes are huge not just for everyday Americans, but also for Obama, who is putting much of his credibility on the line to gain congressional passage. His stepped-up public role comes as he faces rising criticism from Republicans, sliding public approval ratings and divisions within his party. Obama acknowledged that many people are uneasy about growing federal budget deficits and the fast-rising government debt.
More from Hot Air with the astounding accusation that Obama made to the doctors of America.
This is what happens when you take health advice from a guy with a lifelong smoking habit. Exit question: Any truth to the rumor that Obama’s going to impose a new surtax on fatties? “But let me be clear: The time has come to put away the fudge.”

The teleprompter is a liar.
I love how he “speaks” on behalf of all doctors. I can tell right now my doctor is not in it for profit but rather patient care. My family, my wife’s family have been going to this guy for generations. He absolutely LOVES his patients, takes the time to talk to you about things outside of what’s bothering you (life in general) and his patients love him too!
It will be sad when he has to close.
A bit off topic, but watching this reminded me of you guys lol:

Solange – typical liberal posting something from a scumbag dirty liberal rag like the huffington post who makes fun of children with down’s syndrome, etc…. TYPICAL and PREDICTABLE just like every other liberal out there. Oh and jon stewart is so damn popular he has a show on LOL Comedy Central. He’s a joke. He’s a comedian and he should keep his loser self out of politics because he sounds like a Hollywood douchebag! Ever wonder why Stewart never reached the likes of Sandler, Rogen, Nealon, Lange, Murphy, Prior, Norm MacDonald, etc etc etc is because he isN’T funny. He’s another typical loser liberal ass wipe!
Oh yeah, I watched Planet of the Apes and it reminded me of you #3
I am happy with my doctor and her practice and I have no desire to find a new doctor. I think it should be up to the patient to decide what doctor to see. When I need to see a doctor, I don’t want to wait months for an appointment. If I or my family need to have surgery, I don’t want to wait months or get approval from the government about my medical treatment. I don’t want the government deciding whether or not I should receive medical care.
We have entirely too many illegals in this country that don’t pay taxes, that don’t pay for medical expenses, that don’t pay for child care, that don’t pay for their education. It’s not free, somebody has to pay for it. That somebody is us taxpayers. When hospitals & doctors have to treat those without insurance then the cost is passed onto the insured. That is why the cost is so high now for medical care & treatment but instead of fixing the problem, the government makes the problem even worse.
So, you’re trying to say that there aren’t any doctors that got into it for the sake of making money? That’s pretty much the biggest aspect of being a doctor, making lots of money. I mean, whenever a woman gets excited about meeting a doctor, it’s not because he can cut her open and perform surgery, it’s because of his paycheck.
Oh and Scott, that “He’s a joke.” line… That’s the point. He’s a comedian! I guess I shouldn’t expect much from a neo-con that would defend the idiots that refuse to believe the fact that Obama was born in Hawaii.
and now obama really gives a damn about the
average citizen ? pure BS. he is only afraid that
he will be made to look like a punk if his
bill doesn’t get passed. too late barry !
obama’s kenyan birth certificate for sale on
e-bay. his own grandmother admits that he was
born in kenya. hospital in hawaii denies that
he was born there.
he has committed treason.
i guess obama gave these obama bloggers a free pa
pair of the payless obama shoes to try to sway
opinions.
O and the rest of the nuts jobs on the Hill will not give up their nice government healthcare policy and jump head long into this pile of ……
Change you can believe in….only for us and not them.
Stop the madness, just say NO, Call your rep. today.
If you’ve ever had an insurance company doctor decide that you weren’t as sick as your own doctor says you are, that you didn’t need the treatment your own doctor recommends, you should know that putting this in the hands of the government is even worse. What about current public health care? Around here, it’s Cook County Hospital and Chicago Board of Health Clinics. Now I hear that if you’ve been shot or stabbed, the absolute BEST place to go is Cook County Hospital–they know how to save you there. Beyond that, the public system sucks. Medicare/caid is a system that provides inadequate coverage and leaks taxpayer money through fraud. Clean up both and put the money into a workable system instead of throwing more money out there and letting someone other than our own doctors and us make decisions.
#3. This kind of reminds me of you an liberals who do not want to discuss the topic at hand because your boy and his BS health care plan is going down like a sweet muffin.
Why no story about the Great One mouthing off about the Cambridge PD ?

SM: Give us time there is one in the hopper. Oh ye of little faith.
D’oh Bummer’s healthcare initiative is DOA. Awesome, that’s a huge win for fiscal sanity, but we need to be vigilant. This Marxist will never stop trying to dismantle this country before our very eyes.
It is a bit reassuring that the public is finally catching on to this sweet talking fraud and his goons trying to spend us into economic oblivion. Hopefully this trend continues into 2010 and beyond, and we start to get our country back, bloodied, but not beaten!
Heaven forbid that a doctor actually wants to make money. Why that capitalist pig! BTW D-, assuming you have a job, do tell us why you work. The sheer desire to share with your fellow man and pay for his health control premiums?
BTW, I wrote an expose’ of what went on one day in the office of my profit motivated practitioner. Absolutely shocking!
Many of us can readily see what Malpractice
looks like in the White House. We can also observe
the bankrupt state of Medicare and Medicaid
along with deplorable conditions associated
with Veteran’s Hospitals around the Country.
In light of consistent failure by Government to
do anything right, shouldn’t we be reasonably
cautious about assigning our future Health Care
Decisions and Complete Control of our Lives over to
the same inept and irresponsible hacks that
have repeatedly looted and ruined these programs?
C’mon, now, should we add perhaps 15 million
Illegal Aliens to the lines we would be standing in
to receive our substandard Government Care?
Let’s understand the convoluted, so-called ‘Health
Care’ proposals that our elite representatives have
not read and comprehended, let alone will not
be participating in themselves. Then, once we
realize what they were trying to do to us, let’s throw
the Bums Out!
In the interest of reducing medical costs,
I believe a certain Dr. Jesse Jackson would willingly
perform a ‘pro bono’ specific type of excision
on Obowma if the opportunity arose. Some consider
Dr. Jackson to be a nut job in the flesh. On the other
hand, this type of surgery might relax the urgency
factor of Barry’s approach to overwhelming our System
with Specious Legislation and Confiscatory Taxation.
Throw another scalpel in the Autoclave, thanks!
[...] is bad enough that Obama attacked doctors credibility during the Health care press conference where Obama had little specifics, but when he did talk about [...]
#17:i didn’t realize actually had nuts.
Beginning to see Obowma trained as a High Pressure
Salesman (ACORN, Alinsky, Ayers) that goes into ‘full
auto’ mode with practically no understanding of the
products he’s pushing. Finding himself off-script, he
simply falls back at ‘dissing’ his envisioned competition
(that be free enterprise medicine/health care). Actually,
he see’s the Constitution and Bill of Rights as the ‘enemy’
as well.
You can take ‘the man’ out of Chicago, but, you can’t
take Chicago Politics out of ‘the man’.
#15 Uh.. that was exactly my point. So basically you just agreed with me, and not SM. Good job.
[...] EXIT QUESTION:So does Obamacare allow for doctors writing fraudulent health care notes for union workers in the name of “economic justice” because unions side with the Obamamessiah? Or does Obama have the guts to call this for what it was … doctor fraud. Maybe Obama would feel different if the fake Dr’s notes were to take out their tonsils! [...]
