The doctors hate paperwork and insurance companies so he’s just telling them what they want to hear. He’s lying. Why will a doctor dealing with either the government or the government and private insurers have any less to deal with?
In fact, they will have to “squeeze in” the 50 million patients he wants to add to their burden.
NO, I can’t keep my Doctor. My Doctor will be quitting her practice if obamacare passes.

Hey - no makin fun o’ massa ‘bama. He goin’ take care o us real good.
‘If You Like Your Doctor, You Can Keep Your Doctor’
Other Marxists wouldn’t let you keep your own doctor! He’s much nicer!
Most of my doctors are not that young. I bet they’ll retire pronto rather than be part of Obamacare. So where’s my choice when they doctors I want are no longer practicing?
gee....I hope he’s not “guessing wrong” again......
POSOTUS
Today it's leave that has to be paid for by the employer and now includes, not just mothers caring for their newborns, but fathers, children caring for their elderly parents, parents attending school teacher conferences and the last I heard the Democrats were trying for owners with sick pets. And the time has gone to six weeks.
I like my hard earned money....can I keep THAT?
Govt. health plan competing with private physicians will drive the private physicians out of business quickly with lower patient volume and lower reimbursements. Over 40% of MDs are more than 55 yrs old. Replacements from medical schools are inadequate, and the physicians produced are burdoned with educational debt that will not be able to be serviced.
Lol! Hillarious post, but you make your point very well.
Right up until he/she quits practicing, because the government has put him/her out of business. We already have numerous doctors who either refuse to take Medicare/Medicaid patients or have quit practicing because of how little Medicare/Medicaid reimburses them for their work. And we want a system that pays on that scale for ALL patients? Yeah, that's going to thrill the really good doctors, not to mention make hordes of our best and brightest want to go to medical school.
Oh, Dear Leader you are so good to us! We grovel in your great presence! What a wonderful and benevolent Dear Leader you are!

Something I never thought I would hear from a president in the USA is “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor,” as if any American should ever need that permission or assurance. It’s disgusting. 0bama is a disgusting, Communist pig.
Sure, you can keep your doctor, we’ll just pay him nothing so he can’t do the diagnostics or procedures you need.
If they pass ANY plan that interferes with my right to private practice doctors I will sue for violation of Constitutional rights. The US government has no Constitutional authority to run a medical indurance program nor interfere with my rights to a doctor. Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, etc, all have no right to even exist.

Under ObamaCare, students who get in to Medical School will do so because they are good party members. Ah the joys of Soviet Style incompetent medicine. Butcher who can’t be sued because they are aparatchtiks.
Hey, that's mighty white of you Bambi. I'll believe it when I see it.
Obama has SAID a lot of things since his first round of campaigning.
So far....all lies.
