I’ll say it again...
I and several members of my family have met Dr. Benjamin, and though we’re on opposite sides of the political spectrum — I respect her, her sacrifices and her work..
I disagree with her position on abortion - but there isn’t a SINGLE Republican politician I agree with 100%.
I believe this woman to be HONEST, INCORRUPTIBLE, DEDICATED to SERVICE with ACCOMPLISHMENTS that are undeniable. What you see is what you get.
She’s a DOER....she walks the walk.
Folks can function and get past being over ideal weight, but once stupid, they’re stuck. We’ve got far too many of those stupid bastards in office already.
I doubt whether anyone would be making an issue of it if the Surgeon General’s job in a Nanny State didn’t include adding new regulations against anything judged to make Americans fat.
Also, being pro-abortion is a serious problem, because she is in a position to pretend that killing babies is a basic aspect of “health care.” It wouldn’t matter so much in some posts, but it matters in this one.
Finally, I’m not even sure if it’s a good thing that she is someone who gets things done, if what she gets done is Obama-style health care. As Rush says, it might be better to wish that she fails.
