HCR is not just about rationing and wealth redistribution. It's about the end of all individual rights as the corrosive effects of the new collectivist basic human right to health care spreads throughout the legal and political system like a virus.

Is President Obama trying to score brownie points with the majority doctors out there?
Ya just never know with the young president. One day you’re his enemy, the next day, your best friend. We’ve seen it all before.
Today the president gathered doctors representing the AMA (and a variety of the medical organizations) to show how MDs support his health care plan. The lab coats are a nice touch, cause otherwise we would have to take his word for it that they are actually doctors. All style no substance.

Is this like “I got black friends”?
I hope for his sake he doesn’t have to be hospitalized for anything in particular. That requires surgery and involves a doctor/surgeon who recently got cut off from his private practice.

Pathetic stage show!....
I heard the white coats were provided by the White House.
BO wanted the people to wear them - make a nice photo.
White coats do not mean you are a physician. Obammy provided the coats.......many of Obammy’s supporters are in those coats!
Health Care Reform (HCR) is a direct assault on individual liberties. I think that is its main purpose.
That means that health care providers have no individual rights. The collective right of the people to receive health care would supersede the provider's individual right to set their fees, their hours or change their occupational status or even decide how to apply their skills and knowledge. A collective right, by practical definition, is a state right because it is a right that is provided by the government to all not protected by the government as something possessed by each person. It is also a state right because it supersedes the individual rights of others when the two come into conflict.
It isn't stated in any of the bills that a patient's rights to care supersedes a provider's right to set fees and hours etc, but it doesn't need to. Rights are always adjudicated in the courts. The legislation simply establishes the foundation for the courts to rule in favor of the patient's collective right to health care.
Weiner’s view is collectivist, fascist and totalitarian. Collectivist because it is superior to an individual right. Fascist because it is overseen by one entity the Federal government. Totalitarian because the Federal government is the true possessor of this collective right and the administrator and enforcer of it as well.
Congressman Weiner's view is the underlying philosophy of the entire Health Care Reform legislation the House and Senate have put forth. Consider the setting up of community watch dogs to monitor various health parameters of citizens in the Senate version of the bill. Look at pages 382 - 393.
TITLE I—QUALITY, AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE FOR ALL AMERICANS
Even the citizens themselves will be subject to state set regulations on their behavior in order to fulfill the human right of universal health care. It isn't the individual's liberty that is being protected by that it is the state's control over its health care system that is being guarded. How much clearer can it be that these bills abrogate the concept of individual rights?

Some of my best friends are doctors, YOU PEOPLE.
If you don't actually have any black friends and you pay some black people to say they are your friends and photo-shop them into your family pictures then, yes, it is exactly like that.

I’d like them to start referring to him as “the boy king”

The pony-tail “doctor” would be the analog of putting one of your family members in blackface for a photo... :)
Yep. Since my sis thinks 0biewan is wonderful I will get to work doctoring her image in the family album. ;^)
