The Medical Profession Speaks out on the Financial Bail-Out Package


The allergists voted to scratch it, and 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, and the
obstetricians felt they were all laboring under a misconception.

The ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted; the
pathologists yelled, "Over my dead body!" while the pediatricians
said, 'Oh, Grow up!'

The psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, the radiologists
could see right through it, and the surgeons decided to wash their
hands of the whole thing.

The internists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow, and the
plastic surgeons said, "This puts a whole new face on the matter."

The podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the urologists felt
the scheme wouldn't hold water.

The anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas; and the
cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no.

In the end, the proctologists left the decision up to the assholes in
Washington .
