Republican heroes. Soldiers that won't serve their country and doctors that won't serve the public.
If this were Liberals who had done this under Bush, their tune would be slightly different though.

You're mixing me up with someone else.I'm talking about doctors. I don't think you should be allowed to BE a doctor if you are going to refuse service. It is unethical.
Heck, you can turn down the adult book store.
One, he did not say that he would turn anyone away. He suggested they seek care elsewhere.
Two, in the case of emergency care, he would be required by law to provide emergency care and then send the patient to his/her own doctor.
Three, If the doctor can't turn away patients, what right do I as an accountant have to turn away clients. Weren't you involved in the thread about whether or not a photographer could turn down a lesbian wedding ceremony? Didn't you claim the photographer was required to perform her services to that lesbian couple. If the photographer is required to do so, why would I as an accountant be afforded the right to turn down an adult book store?
Note: if you did not say that in the other thread then fine this question does not apply to you, but I thought we had this discussion then.

it is to doctors.
No, too much Bureaucracy hampers a doctor's ability to do work.
However, with technology over time and when it comes more inexpensive, it will be easier.

The report, published online on Wednesday in The New England Journal of Medicine, found that doctors who use electronic health records say overwhelmingly that such records have helped improve the quality and timeliness of care. Yet fewer than one in five of the nation’s doctors has started using such records.
I'm sure you'll hate this though.
The government took a step in that direction last week, announcing a $150 million Medicare project that will offer doctors incentives to move from paper to electronic patient records. The program is intended to help up to 1,200 small practices in 12 cities and states make the conversion.
Individual doctors will be offered up to $58,000 over the five-year span of the project, which is intended to test the impact of incentives on the spread of electronic health records. Further programs across the country are planned
that's another bone of contention in the upcoming court battles,, electronic assess of patients records by the government.. good luck with bribing the doctors though.
Funny thing...I've never seen anyone defend Ayers.Republican heroes. Soldiers that won't serve their country and doctors that won't serve the public.
Democrat heroes. War protestors who bomb public offices and become professors and anyone who will grant an entitlement.

MOUNT DORA 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."
The sign reads: "If you voted for Obama seek urologic care elsewhere. Changes to your healthcare begin right now, not in four years."
I love stories like this

No problem. I'm guilty of the same thing. For the record, I think that in many cases people can turn down who they do business with. But not in all cases.You're mixing me up with someone else.

Why do you love stories like this? It's a doctor who clearly puts politics above his patients.
How sad. Politics don't belong in the relationship between a patient and his doctor.
