"Mr. Healthcare, thank you for coming in for your annual checkup. It's been a couple of years since we have seen you and your records indicate a lot has happened to you since Nancy’s gavel brought you into this world. Let me just get the light to have a look and...
"Whoa, what the heck happened to you?! You look like a Mack Truck ran over you, then backed up and hit you again. I know this doesn’t sound very professional but when we put you in Room #2, I didn’t know you would resemble that number. Wow. Sorry.
"Anyways, looking at your financial weight, you have gained quite a bit since your birth. Daddy Obama said you would stay trim and weight neutral but it seems that time and light are not doing you justice. You seemed to have hid your excess pounds well but they sure are showing now.
"You really need to get your act together and we need to find out what your long term prognosis really is. Looking at your x-rays, it seems that you are being pulled 26 different ways as to the validity of your very existence. I see that the Supreme Powers that be will ultimately decide your fat, er, I mean your fate and there is likely no antidote for this. Though I guess what else can you expect when you plan to sit there like a death panel deciding who gets rationed care and it may just serve you well to be subject to such a panel yourself. This is survival of the fittest and not of the fattest.
"My, my, no wonder you’re so unpopular with everyone. Just look at the size of your chart- over 2,000 pages long. A fellow could spend a medical career just trying to sift through this whole wordy montage of double talk. I have a feeling that before this is all over, you may have gone through a legal version of plastic surgery that may leave you unrecognizable. To be honest, at this point that may not be a bad thing.
"I see from your history that you do have some good things to offer in regards to health but a few positive tests do not make for an overall positive outlook on your condition. There seem to be too many negatives about your overall picture and that leaves me troubled. Sure, people like ice cream, nachos and fries, but that would not be a good reason to like or dislike an eatery. The same with you, certain good things about you don’t mean that you're in overall good condition to really be helping people.
"We’ll just have to wait and see if we should schedule another appointment for next year as there is a chance that you will not be around to see it. I would truly suggest a total body makeover so that you look more presentable in public and such a makeover may be coming whether you like it or not. Once we get a good look at you, we may find out just how much “free” really costs. Take care."
As the healthcare debate makes its way through the courts, Obama is urging the Supreme Court to wait to hear the case until it has been adjudicated by the lower legal layers. I have always been against healthcare as Obama has presented it because it is just another way for government to own us. No amount of compromising on his part may be enough to save this train wreck. If the court system is true to the law, healthcare will be struck down and then maybe sanity can be restored. Few believed this to be even a remote possibility but each day the debate lives, the chances for Obama care dying grow in legal strength and public popularity. Rassmussen Polls have 62% of Americans opposing Obamacare. I believe this number will grow as time continues to pass. Wisconsin unions said of the Republicans that voted to do away with collective bargaining that they were thieves working in the night; health care was passed in the late hours on Christmas Eve. Hmmm.
