    No, it's a free country. The doctor can say whatever he wants.

    Saw that one IDIOT said it was the Doctor's right to post the sign but the he (the IDIOT) wouldn't trust the mental capacity of the doctor. Geez, that doctor is smarter than a billion obummassiah supporters all rolled into one.

    As a private business he can refuse to serve anyone, unless it is based on the Big NoNos - race, religion, etc. Voting record? Fair game!

    If I was him, I'd be concerned. First, he needs a license to practice; he needs state approval to do business, so that may be a problem. If he bills medicare or medicaid, he's also going to have a problem. I could see them dropping him from eligibility to participate.

    Sent him $100 today. I'll be darned if I want to see him do anything but profit from this.

    Revised: I had his check all printed out, in a stamped envelope ready to go. Then I found out how big a check I have to write to the IRS next week and decided I didn't feel like giving anyone any money anymore. [:p]

    And here come the first threats that will be leveled at this man for standing up to Big Brother .
    #1 License .
    #2 Banning from participation in certain programs .

    I'm curious how everyone would feel if it were a doctor saying, "if you opposed Obama, you can get your healthcare elsewhere."

    just how many of the US wanted this health care?
    even the benefits will not be seen as soon as what
    they said.
    Of course I would never trust Washington to keep its
    promises anyway.

    Same way I do now; have the intestinal fortitude to stand up and proclaim your convictions, that is what he did, I support him. That is also what Air America did, remember them, they are the BANKRUPT liberal radio whatever that was trounced in the public arena of ideas, morals, direction and truth. Just like Obama is being hammered.

    I am willing to bet, as a urologist, that he opts out of MEDICAID and MEDICARE

    On what grounds could they "drop him" if he did? Now, I could see them trumping up MEDICARE fraud charges and shoving a microscope so far up his * during an investigation that he might not have time to practice. No, they could not just drop him.

    What grounds could the State have to revoke his license? Because he speaks out about something that infuriates him?

    When people are afraid for their lives or livelihood if they speak their mind, this is no longer a Republic.

    I'd be fine with it!

    It is called a "private practice" for a reason!

    A doctor who works in a hospital is not working under private practice rules and there fore must see who ever comes through the door, But a doctor with his own office and private practice does have the choice to see who he wishes just as any other private business does.

    I'd be delighted to actually MEET one of the phony "white coats" that the obummassiah traipses out every time he's ready to turn the screws deeper into the citizenry. Then I could give him/her WHAT FOR in person. I don't really think there ARE very many ANY competent, practicing physicians who are in support of this tyranny. If I had a clue that one of MY chosen doctors was such, I'd speedily go elsewhere after telling him/her why I was leaving.

    This doc is 100%. I'll bet his office patient questionaire doesn't have any firearms questions on it, either.

    The doctor in question is a urologist, he has plenty of professional reasons to be wary of government involvement in medicine:

    Urology practices will often deal with prostate cancer.
    Recently many free-standing urology practices have been purchasing linear accelerators and starting up their own radiation therapy unit...the Feds/Medicare don't like this one bit.
    Why? because more often than not we use IMRT (intensity modulated radiation therapy) for treating prostate cancer with radiation.
    IMRT is much more precise than conventional radiation treatment, but also more manpower intensive, since you have a metric f***ton of safety and quality verifications involved.

    Therefore IMRT is much more expensive...and medicare claims that a lot of times these urologists are using the more expensive alternative to pad their pocket. IMRT, however, has much fewer side effects than conventional RT (less dose to the intestines, bladder, etc) and certainly less complications than the invasive alternatives of radioactive "seed" implants or radical prostectomy!

    in my professional opinion IMRT is worth the additional cost and if any of you are unfortunate enough to get this disease (I hope you will not!) I would recommend IMRT over the alternatives.

    I feel that he is in the right. Political affiliation is not protected under the Civil Rights Act. I'm sure that Al Sharpton or Jesse * will make a todo about this.
