    I can't write what I really think of this doctor without needing to be censored.

    Um, I think that the Hippocratic oath was voted on long before Obama was.

    Well, then Jack Cassel (wasn't he a pitcher for the A's?) should be divested and decertified, pronto.

    "I will remember that I remain a member of society, with special obligations to all my fellow human beings"

    Maybe his oath didn't include that line.

    Here's a doctor that took the Hypocritical Oath.

    Like most Republicans he took the hypocrital oath.

    That joke was funnier the first time, in the post right before yours.

    We can discuss the doctor's action and his violation of the oath. That's fair game. My dad was a doctor - I'm sure he's spinning in his grave over this.

    A crack like the one I quoted makes it politics and gets it shut down. Don't go there. No need.

    He said he really wouldn't refuse to treat anyone, but if people see the sign and decide to go elsewhere, so be it.
    Still a dick move on his part.
