Whistleblower Holiday Cheer 2024!



 

‘Twas the night before Christmas

Through the Senate and House,

GOP creatures were squeaking

Like Mike Johnson – the mouse!

 

We survived an election,

With vodka and gin

No litigation needed

When Trump gets a win!

 

The polls once again,

Missed the mark by a mile

GOP won it bigly

In Trumpissistic style!

 

How did he do it?

Such sleight of hand,

Bringing millions of folks

Under his command.

 

This sorcerer king,

Thinks politics is sport

Promised us everything

But will come up short.

 

He’s daring and reckless

He’ll take a chance

Reached into MAGA

Pulled out JD Vance!


Deport the illegals!

Not few but many

Let’s start with the worst,

That traitor Liz Cheney!

 

Half the country is angry

And sullen and sad.

At the end of his term

Will he drive us all mad?

 

How could he win?

How could she lose?

Trump had the mojo

And lit the fuse.

 

She won the debate,

And showed us the joy

But in the end

She was Trump’s little toy.

 

When folks are all struggling,

With less legal tender

Will their votes be swayed,

By pronouns and gender?

 

Trump crushed the election

He made a killing

Folks wouldn’t buy

What Harris was selling. 


King Donald enthroned

Feted by royalists

The White House is packed

With ring-kissing loyalists.

 

Will the DEMS learn a lesson,

Will they think and reflect

Or will they instead,

Dodge and deflect?

 

We’ll all cross the river

We’ll reach the shore,

Democracy will survive

2024!

Stop Medical Malpractice: The White Coat Wall of Silence

Photo Credit Leisure Guy, one of my most faithful commenters, opines that I am omitting an important aspect of the tort reform argument. He has implored me repeatedly to read a particular book that I suspect buttresses his views, but this worthy pursuit is simply not near the top of my priority pyramid. Since he’s retired, he enjoys the luxury of burrowing deeply into the base of his priority pyramid. With 4 tuitions to go, retirement is a distant mirage for me. I’m can be a ‘leisure guy’, but only in my dreams. I have written throughout this blog and elsewhere that there are too many frivolous lawsuits against physicians. I have admitted that caps on non-economic damages are not ideal, because they deny some worthy plaintiffs of complete compensation, but I support them because I believe they serve the greater good. I have ranted that there is no effective filter to screen out physicians who should never be invited to the litigation party in the first place. I believe that the...

When Should Doctors Retire?

I am asked with some regularity whether I am aiming to retire in the near term.  Years ago, I never received such inquiries.  Why now?   Might it be because my coiffure and goatee – although finely-manicured – has long entered the gray area?  Could it be because many other even younger physicians have given up their stethoscopes for lives of leisure? (Hopefully, my inquiring patients are not suspecting me of professional performance lapses!) Interestingly, a nurse in my office recently approached me and asked me sotto voce that she heard I was retiring.    “Interesting,” I remarked.   Since I was unaware of this retirement news, I asked her when would be my last day at work.   I have no idea where this erroneous rumor originated from.   I requested that my nurse-friend contact her flawed intel source and set him or her straight.   Retirement might seem tempting to me as I have so many other interests.   Indeed, reading and ...

Prostate Cancer Screening: Stop The PSA Train!

About 10 years ago, my dad was to see his general internist. I have always refrained from giving medical advice to my family, for all of the reasons why doctors should not treat or advise their relatives. But, on this occasion, I did give Dad some unsolicited advice, particularly as I knew that his physician fired the diagnostic testing trigger readily. “Dad, please make sure that he doesn’t check the PSA (prostate specific antigen) test.” Dad indicated that he would convey my concern to his doctor, who ran the test on him anyway. Apparently, he includes the PSA test as a matter of routine on all men over a certain age. Twenty-five years ago as a curious, but skeptical medical student, I learned about prostate cancer. I learned that every man will develop it if he lives long enough. I learned that most cases of prostate cancer remain silent and never interfere with the individual’s life. I learned that the treatment for these cancers involves either major surgery or radiation, both of ...
