Obama's Anger "Management" on Health Care Reform

If you listen to President Obama, you would think that going to the doctor was like taking a car to a "chop shop".

Does your little girl have a sore throat? Then the doctor will yank her tonsils out because he'll make more money! (Click to See the Video) You've got diabetes? The doctor will amputate your foot because in doing so he can take that to the bank! (Click to See that Video) Apparently, our quack Doctor Obama seems to think that all doctors have nothing but profit on their minds the minute you walk through their office door.

Now, there "is" a little truth in what Obama is saying. But, "very little". On the whole, doctors are trying to fix the human machine to the best of their ability and by using all the tools that their very expensive and very intensive education has given them. I think most want to do what is best for their patients. Otherwise, you can count on the fact that they would be in court, countless times, over malpractice lawsuits. Something that our not-so-good Doctor Obama always seems to ignore in both his analogies and in the thrust of his reform of health care!

Throughout this process of trying to get health care reform, Obama has spent most of his"jaw flapping time" demonizing the health care industry: the doctors, the insurance companies, and the drug companies. His full intent in doing so is to try to portray them as such evil bogeymen that Americans will want health care reform out of sheer, get-even anger. This is what community organizers do; and, Obama has that ACORN-philosophy streaming throughout his veins. Obama's form of anger management is to get "you angry" and try to "make you forget" about what he's really trying to do. After all, with anger there's no logic.

Don't forget what the teacher Buddha said: "Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else"...(and ultimately)..."you are the one who gets burned!"

By The Way: The tactic that Obama is using is formally called the "ad hominem abusive" or "agumentum ad personam". The thrust of this type of tactic -- often used in debating -- is to personally attack someone as a means of discrediting their argument. It is figuratively killing the messenger in an attempt to sidestep the message. Does anyone remember what Obama and his allies did to Joe the Plumber?

Fascinating analysis...and right on target. I just can't figure out how there are people in this country falling for this m.o. At this rate we are all going to need the doctor due to a chronic state of shock and dismay. Anti-depressants anyone?? (just kidding)
