A Lighter Look at Obamacare

My philosophy is, if you can’t understand something, pun(t). Thanks to Christine Murphy for sending me this one.

The American Medical Association has weighed in on Obama’s new health care package.  

The Allergists were in favor of scratching it, but the Dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves.

The Gastroenterologists had sort of a gut feeling about it, but the Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve.

Meanwhile, Obstetricians felt certain everyone was laboring under a misconception, while the Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted.

Pathologists yelled, “Over my dead body!” while the Pediatricians said, “Oh, grow up!”

The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while the Radiologists could see right through it.  Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing and the Internists claimed it would indeed be a bitter pill to swallow. 

The Plastic Surgeons opined that this proposal would “put a whole new face on the matter.”  

The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the Urologists were pissed off at the whole idea. 

Anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas, and those lofty Cardiologists didn’t have the heart to say no.

In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire decision up to the [sphincters]* in Washington.

Obama Care and Me

I just came back from my annual physical and I paid NOTHING.  Apparently, a yearly exam is part of the preventative medicine plan, designed to keep us healthy rather than cure us when we get sick.  We’re encouraged to monitor our health via cost-free exams.  Makes sense to me!

 

 

Obama’s Biggest Crime

What has our President done to us! It’s a crime!  It may seem insignificant to many people, but it’s an affront to this language-loving person’s ears. It began with Candidate Obama and has permeated his Presidency, affecting politicians, commentators, and persons on the street.  It invades our parties and pastors’ sermons, our instructors and our excuse-makers.  That is, beginning sentences with the word “look.”

If you haven’t noticed, now you will.  Wait until Leno does it, or your City Council member, or your dad or friend, or even Obama himself.  Now that you’re aware, it may very well make you want to stick chewing gum in your ears.  When someone asks why Bazooka bubbles are covering your lobes, just say, “Look, I don’t want to hear it anymore!”
