Medicine Man? Obama's Lost Night
Philip Klein at American Spectator says President Obama "had a chance [last night] to reset the debate" on healthcare. "Instead, he rambled on . . ."
"At one point, Obama made the insulting suggestion that when children go to doctors with sore throats, doctors consult payment charts, and unneccesarily remove kids' tonsils just to earn extra money. Aside from being a cynical remark, it isn't smart politically, as polling shows that Americans trust doctors far more than politicians when it comes to health care."
Whatever might be "wrong" with the-best-in-the-world healthcare in America, anyone who thinks Washington politicians can fix it -- or that they have a Constitutional mandate to fix it -- needs a doctor.
And politicians who resist or despise their Constitutional job description may need stronger medicine.
