What Doctors Know

I ate breakfast in the hospital cafeteria today only because I was starving.

I had grits loaded with butter, hash browns loaded with salt, greasy bacon, and a cheesy pig in a blanket with a diet Coke.

A nice internist came in and sat at the table next to me. He had fresh blueberries with yogurt on top, oatmeal, and half a grapefruit. He had orange juice to drink.

He's probably healthier than I am.

They know they will have crappy care under Obamacare and better take care of themselves. They know they will all be working for the government, if they decide to stay in the business. They know they and their patients won't be in control of their health care decisions. They know "If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor" is a big fat lie!!!!!

Yeah, but the Internist probably doesn't have a Mother in the hospital.

That Internist is probably not toasted, fried, or heading rapidly toward surfacing as a single grit due to it.

"Hash browns loaded with salt"...

Dang, I'm hongry now!

Just sayin'...

Do you know what's going to happen to the internist who had fresh blueberries with yogurt on top? He's going to die on day just same as someone who had grits loaded with butter, hash browns loaded with salt, greasy bacon, and a cheesy pig in a blanket with a diet Coke.

And when he finds out the results are going to be the same, he'll wish he ate real food!
