An Obamacare e-mail that actually made me


Posted: Oct 29, 2013

toward the end is strictly out of consideration for the board's high standards of behavior. Insert the appropriate vulgarity as desired.

 

The American Medical Association has weighed in on Obama's new health care package.


The Allergists were in favor of scratching it, but the Dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves.

The Gastroenterologists had sort of a gut feeling about it, but the Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve.

Meanwhile, Obstetricians felt certain everyone was laboring under a misconception, while the Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted.

Pathologists yelled, "Over my dead body!" while the Pediatricians said, "Oh, grow up!"

The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while the Radiologists could see right through it.

Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing and the Internists claimed it would indeed be a bitter pill to swallow.

The Plastic Surgeons opined that this proposal would "put a whole new face on the matter."

The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the Urologists were pissed off at the whole idea.

Anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas, and those lofty Cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no.

In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire decision up to the *******s in Washington.

The ENTs would not hear of it, said it didn't pass the smell test, and couldn't swallow it, and the Optometrists couldn't see why not.

ROTFL. Thanks for posting that. Loved it.

That's really cute too. How'd it go missing? - x

It's an old joke that's been around for years - nothing new

It's still cute, but not new

Is There A Problem With Posting Something "not new"? - Just Really Curious

[ In Reply To ..]
Is it okay to post something that is not new? I'm just asking because I see that on this board a lot: "nothing new," as if it somehow makes the post it is under "less than" because the poster who has already seen it has to let everyone know it's something they already saw.

I'm not trying to be rude here at all. I see that phrase posted on here *a lot*, and I'm just really curious.

This is one of the funniest things I've ever read! (sm) - Libby

I hope you don't mind if I "borrow" it to show my doctor. I have an appointment with him next month, and I believe he'd love it and will want to pass it around to patients, staff and medical students.

Plus, he has a sort of sick sense of humor like I do, and I know he'll LOVE this.

Thank you very much.

"Glenn Beck once said Obamacare would mean "the end of prosperity in America forever." But so far, it turns out President Obama's 2010 health law is actually putting money in Americans' wallets."

Hilary And Her E-mail...Aug 27, 2015
For years,  I believed that Hilary would have been a better president than Obama - now I question that.  What I don't understand is that she used only her personal e-mail - she did not have or use any other e-mail account.  She had her own e-mail server.  She says that she never sent or received classified documents by e-mail.  So are we to believe that those thousands and thousands of e-mails that she got had nothing in them but yoga, wedding plans and lunch meetin ...

Obamacare Is Failing From Behind... His Goals For ObamacareJul 20, 2016
1) Have it collapse so that single payer can be implemented amidst the ensuing chaos. 2) Have that happen on somebody else’s watch. Obamacare was designed to fail so the Democrats could “reform” it with complete government provided socialized medicine. That is the entire purpose for it. Obamacare is designed to collapse so they can backfill the vacuum with government run socialized medicine. Eventually, everyone will be on some form of Medicare. I believe that was one of Bernie’ ...

Nixing Saturday Mail Delivery Will Hurt Minorities And Single MothersFeb 09, 2013
After the United States Postal Service announced that it intends to stop delivering mail on Saturdays in an effort to cut costs beginning this August, many praised it as a relatively straightforward way to save roughly $2 billion a year. Some lamented the inconvenience of the change and others were alarmed at what that means for post office employees. Not many, though, tied the matter to race or gender. Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) was apparently one of them. He explained on MSNBC: ...

Door-to-door Mail Delivery Could Be Phased Out Jul 31, 2013
This isn't my first post on this. Did I have it right or what? 1. First came laws requiring the 200-year-old United States Postal Service to start paying entirely for itself, NO taxpayer support. 2. That didn't work. It COULD support itself. So second came a number of laws designed to cripple our USPS, including some by making it illegal to deliver certain types of high-profit deliveries -- benefiting giant private delivery corporations that couldn't compete with the highl ...

So this is what I have learned.   After listening about the new health insurance, this is what I know. There are 3 levels of care/cost. They are trying to get the young people to join to keep the cost down for the older people. Well after listening to a question and answer discussion on line program coming out of Sioux Falls, South Dakota hospital systems, it scared me greatly. If all the young people join this program, it will not help the older people who live on a fixed inc ...

When discussing the ACA or Obamacare, whichever you call it, remember that it is literally like comparing apples and oranges (and grapes, pineapple and maybe even potatoes).  Each state has different prices and different plans from the federal plan.  Some states now have only one company offering a plan through their state exchange.  Each plan has a different monthly cost, a different deductable and it goes on and on and on.  The requirements are different from state to state ...
