Earlier, I posted about a urologist who encourages Obama supporters to take a hike:

But wait! There's more! Take a look-see at what his patients think of him (click on image to enlarge):


Dr. No gets 3 thumbs down... not unlike his political party.

Gee, could it have anything to do with his attitude?

Doctor tells Obama supporters: Go elsewhere for health care

Good lord! Talk about all wee-wee'd up!

A doctor who considers the national health-care overhaul to be bad medicine for the country posted a sign on his office door telling patients who voted for President Barack Obama to seek care "elsewhere."

"I'm not turning anybody away — that would be unethical," Dr. Jack Cassell, 56, a Mount Dora urologist and a registered Republican opposed to the health plan, told the Orlando Sentinel on Thursday. "But if they read the sign and turn the other way, so be it."

Gee, that's not at all passive aggressive.

"I posted a sign telling Obama supporters to screw off, and if they're gonna go and take it all literally and stuff, well, hey, so be it."

Cassell may be walking a thin line between his right to free speech and his professional obligation, said William Allen, professor of bioethics, law and medical professionalism at the University of Florida's College of Medicine.

Allen said doctors cannot refuse patients on the basis of race, gender, religion, sexual orientation or disability, but political preference is not one of the legally protected categories specified in civil-rights law. By insisting he does not quiz his patients about their politics and has not turned away patients based on their vote, the doctor is "trying to hold onto the nub of his ethical obligation," Allen said.

Party of No, meet Doctor No.

So is this one of those Conscience Clause things? I only treat those who I agree with? Nice.

The Hypocritic Oath is alive and well in Florida.

Two words, Dr. Jack: Piss off.

First, today's Twit-O'-the-Day:

If you look closely at the image above, you'll see it says "driving hard to unseat Barbara Boxer in 2010" on the left. Good luck with that.
