A Great Press Conference

I can't believe I ever thought i would have a difficult time coming up with material to write on this blog. I contemplated several topics this week but I felt I had to write about the most successful press conference I have ever seen. By that I mean, what is the purpose of a press conference? To inform the press and public as to what is going on in the administration and what the president is thinking and planning. Well BO certainly informed the public on two issues that are very enlightening. Unfortunately for him, these two topics were not in his planned comments but he brought them up anyway in an unscripted manner. It certainly demonstrated his true feelings as to where the problem lies both in the escalation of health care costs as well as in race relations. A disaster for BO but a truly informative and eye opening conference.

I also felt obligated to write about this press conference since I learned during this conference that I am personally responsible for the dramatic escalation of health care costs in the United States. Not only that, but I am unethical, I decide treatment based on reimbursement, and I border on criminal activity by performing unnecessary surgery on children. Yes, I admit it, I perform tonsillectomies. Just put the handcuffs on me already and ship me off to Alcatraz. BO is really smarter than I thought. He is fully knowledgeable in the field of Otolaryngology and understands all the criteria that go into the decision as to when a tonsillectomy is appropriate. He knows exactly what goes through my mind when I decide to operate and he has determined that I am performing unnecessary surgery on children just for the money.

This knucklehead with a law degree doesn't consider the amount of training I went through to be qualified to perform tonsillectomies and to understand when it is indicated and when it is not. He doesn't consider the thousands of children that benefit from the surgery as many studies have concluded and he has no clue as to the indications to perform such surgery. He has concluded that the parents of the children undergoing tonsillectomies are complicit with the surgeon and are not smart enough to ask the doctor whether the surgery would help their child so they allow their children to undergo unnecessary surgery (don't you worry the government will come to your rescue). He hasn't considered that the risk of doing unnecessary surgery carries with it the risk a lawsuit which is always in the back of any surgeon's mind. He also hasn't considered that in cases where the indication for tonsillectomy is recurrent tonsillitis that in fact health care costs are reduced by the surgery as the patient's need for doctor visits and antibiotics are greatly reduced.

It is sobering to know that BO considers the doctors as the source for the nation's healthcare problem. He clearly said as much at the news conference and he will likely bring this opinion to the restructuring of our healthcare system. Doctor beware, you are the problem. The only doctor that is safe in the restructuring is the abortionist. The only surgery that BO approves of and promotes is an abortion. I, who try to improve the lives of children through medical and surgical treatment, am the problem but the doctor who destroys life is revered. Truly a bizzaro world.

Briefly, the other revelation during the press conference was his determination that it was the fault of the police officer in the Gates arrest. BO is a genius. He admits he doesn't know the details but is smart enough to know that it was the police officer who acted stupidly, according to BO, who was at fault. In fact, this clearly demonstrates his view that police officer, you are the problem. The facts do not matter, your training doesn't matter, your years on the job do not matter, and your previous behavior regarding race relations do not matter. The knucklehead with a law degree (BO) has predetermined that you are a racist just like he has determined that I am a unethical, money hungry, deceiving physician.

So lets add two more sets of people to the list of groups who should definitely regret their votes for BO (See entry 5/25/09). Doctors and the law enforcement community. The fact is any doctor that voted for BO should have his head examined. There were plenty of indications during the campaign he was going to reform health care on the backs of doctors since it is them who are problem. Now we know the full extent of his feelings towards doctors. And anybody who makes their living in law enforcement you should know you will never get the benefit of the doubt. You are predetermined to be racist and will be judged as such.

I would like to thank BO for expressing his heart felt opinions on these matters and really detailing his true beliefs. We need to have more press conferences with BO so we can learn more about his honest opinions in all matters. Biden has got nothing on BO when it comes to public missteps.
