One is that health problems are caused by global warming... ahem, excuse me, climate change.

Anything well said - or said with enough ambiguity, is entirely believable.

Leave it to Fox to make up another ridiculous story. I have been in Health Care for 20+ years
and I don't know any doctors who believe that line of bull. Anyone who subscribes to Fox News's cut and paste style is just plain stupid!!!

What about going blind and hair on palms as well as going to hell for master baiting?

Oh and for Mr. Frist -who doesn't have enough sense to be a politicain either- you can't get AIDS from saliva nor is it air born.
I've met physicians who could find their own ass with 2 hands, who have absouletly no 'people skills' and frankly just did it because they could (money/grades/ alumni favor)
It's not only an art but also a passion- much like public service. These are areas that effect PEOPLES LIVES!!!!
Otherwise find a new career. Neither should be in the profession for money or prestige.

Hm....In my experience the shaving 'myth' IS true...

As far as I'm concerned, the last myth is no myth. Cell phones in hospitals are as bad for patients as they are to passengers on planes. I can't see how it can be a good thing to wake up from an operation listening to a person in the next bed having some inane conversation. No to phones in hospitals.

Add arrogance to greed and you have doctors in many cases losing any touch with common sense.

Now throw in fear that doctors currently have about the profession under attack and the loss of common sense is worsened considerably.

I don't see a way out unless doctors themselves demand, in the name of their profession, that all docs go on salary before it is truly too late.

Yet another message bought and paid for by Clinton.

It frustates me that people on huff & stuff keep whining about experience, but overlook the candidates that have the most experience. Obviously it is not experience that people are looking for - is t?


If you (the voters) REALLY CARE about experience, the go with Biden or Dodd

If you want a Washington outsider go with Obama or Richardson.

If you want a secretive, corrupt, sleazy, dirty dealing old time politician with no record to run on, then go with Clinton.

Simple. But you can't pick Clinton because of her dubious experience when she has far less than many of the other Democratic candidates.

Having a medical degree, and even practicing medicine, is no guarantee one has common sense or good observational abilities, and a high level of arrogance predisposes many to be incapable of doing really good science (which is what the practice of medicine ought to be).

As a Knowledge Management practitioner, I'm amazed at just how little everyone in the medical profession shares of what they know, frequently to the detriment of their patients.

Here's another myth: ordering expensive tests and prescribing drugs doesn't make you a good doctor. You need to use your senses more, your equipment less.
