No bias to be seen here. . . Move along.

NBC’s Chief Medical Editor Forced Her Kids to Sign Up for Obamacare as Their ‘Patriotic Duty’

Surprise, surprise, another misguided media personality pimping for the cause.

I've read what many, many physicians have said, and some do agree with her. Thankfully many haven't been blinded by the fairy dust and are willing to say flatly that the best way to bring down the cost of medical care would be to get the government out of it.

I'm old enough to remember affordable health care. Administrative staff in my doctor's office was one part-time clerk/bookkeeper. Of course that was before Medicare.

Dr. Snyderman probably has no idea where the money actually goes today, but paying for layer after layer of federal bureaucracy as well as huge on-site staff who have nothing to do with health care is sheer stupidity.

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." - Teddy Roosevelt

I'm sure this tool makes far more $$ from her nbc biz than from any medical biz activities she may pursue.

Making her a tool, not a physician.

We'll not discuss her motherly propensities.

For shit sake! After all the events (read mis-steps) by this administration in the last year, this idiot still sees Obama as the messiah. She must have attended the Ostrich School of Higher Learning. What a pathetic, left-wing POS! Sadly, there are legions of them.

Snyderman has been a Marxist shill for a long time.

Ah, Obamacare. Soon your medical care will be as efficient as the DMV.

Has anyone else realized yet that Obamacare, or whatever socialized medicine ends up being called in the US, is going to serve the secondary purpose of creating hundreds of thousands of GS-13 and higher grade jobs, which will be filled by Shirley Sherrod types? Everything else the US government touches ends up administered by angry Affirmative Action beneficiaries who, like Sherrod, no longer feel it's necessary to conceal their hatred of Whitey. Everything else the US government touches ends up with racial quotas. Who wants to make any bets on whether there are going to be racial quotas for life expectancy, outcomes after diagnosis with cancer, and so on? And who wants to double down on whether the environmentalist wackos are going to get to write some of the policy? ("We're sorry, Mr. Smith, but as an evil white male taxpayer, your lifetime estimated carbon footprint is already excessively large, so we're putting you on the Aktion T-4 list--I mean, the Liverpool Care Pathway. Happy Kwanzaa! We president now!")

This is the future. No wonder they want to disarm us.
