Dr. Oz said the uninsured “don’t have the right to health,” but should be given “a way of crawling back out of the abyss” with “15-minute physicals” provided by the government “in a festival like setting.”

1. Evil on purpose, party.

[Nevilledog]

34. The cruelty is the point.

[RockRaven]

2. Cartoon.

The man is a cartoon villain.

[awesomerwb1]

3. Wait, this is not The Onion???

[Wingus Dingus]

9. 15 minute "festival" of health access. That's the best the US can do for the uninsured,

according to Oz. I imagine if they find a lump or a weird mole or hear a heart murmur, they're going to be even more anxious because they have no way to pay for treatments. This man is a loon.

[rsdsharp]

4. Dr. Oz spouting gibberish, and Terry Braindead lapping it up.

[Wingus Dingus]

5. WTF. Also, I want to know more about his daughters not wanting to have sex with him

because of his smell. One would have to presume he asked and they said no.

[mopinko]

12. that rang my bell as well.

the least that happened is a level of touching that made them uncomfortable.

[Wingus Dingus]

13. I feel not enough is being said about this. It's truly a "WTF".

[mopinko]

15. hopefully that rang some reporter's bell.

like, 1 w a dad that smelled bad.

[EYESORE 9001]

24. I imagine he smells like kombucha

😷

[Docreed2003]

19. Wait...wut??!!

[Wingus Dingus]

21. See, you didn't hear about it!

23. Wow...yeah I missed that

That has to be the creepiest thing I've seen today. Thanks for sharing!

[MadameButterfly]

28. however, the actual interview isn't as bad as the reports of the interview.

Listen to the actual interivew before you comment. i'm not saying he isn't ridiculous, but there's enough to work with here without us getting involved in slander or taking things out of context (the way the Republicans like to do). It will backfire if we do.

[Wingus Dingus]

29. "Hey girls, are you turned on or off by my smell?"

"Totally turned off, dad!"

[Salviati]

6. These people only care about power and status over others...

They would rather be kings of a shithole rather than fellow citizens in a utopia.

[bucolic_frolic]

7. Sounds like Faith Healing to me

[dweller]

10. Sounds like an carnival Oprah show

in Hell to me
😵‍💫

8. after all he is a Trump candidate

[Hortensis]

11. No, that's not what he's pitching with

cheap 15-minute physicals for screening. IMO, he’s bad enough without doing a Tucker Carlson on him, claiming he says people don’t have a right to health.

We know it’s not universal healthcare expansion to our ACA.

[Biophilic]

14. I started to write a reply and then decided that there was nothing I could say that made any sense

in response to what Oz said. But I hate sitting here with my mouth flapping open. Maybe that's what they are hoping for, saying things that have no possible sensible response. Maybe that's what happens to their followers when they say this type of nonsense, their brains either turn off or they tell themselves that that couldn't possibly be what they said so just ignore or forget it. Because nobody with a brain could hear this and not be totally outraged! And still I'm flabbergasted and yes, I need to close my mouth.

16. Guess he really is a quack since he doesn't recall his Hippocratic Oath.

1960's Version:

I swear to fulfill, to the best of my ability and judgment, this covenant:

I will respect the hard-won scientific gains of those physicians in whose steps I walk, and gladly share such knowledge as is mine with those who are to follow.

I will apply, for the benefit of the sick, all measures [that] are required, avoiding those twin traps of overtreatment and therapeutic nihilism.

I will remember that there is art to medicine as well as science, and that warmth, sympathy, and understanding may outweigh the surgeon's knife or the chemist's drug.

I will not be ashamed to say "I know not", nor will I fail to call in my colleagues when the skills of another are needed for a patient's recovery.

I will respect the privacy of my patients, for their problems are not disclosed to me that the world may know. Most especially must I tread with care in matters of life and death. If it is given me to save a life, all thanks. But it may also be within my power to take a life; this awesome responsibility must be faced with great humbleness and awareness of my own frailty. Above all, I must not play at God.

I will remember that I do not treat a fever chart, a cancerous growth, but a sick human being, whose illness may affect the person's family and economic stability. My responsibility includes these related problems, if I am to care adequately for the sick.

I will prevent disease whenever I can, for prevention is preferable to cure.

I will remember that I remain a member of society, with special obligations to all my fellow human beings, those sound of mind and body as well as the infirm.

If I do not violate this oath, may I enjoy life and art, respected while I live and remembered with affection thereafter. May I always act so as to preserve the finest traditions of my calling and may I long experience the joy of healing those who seek my help.

17. Endearing him even further to his followers

"Buh gosh let um die if they can't fords it! I aint paying muh taxes for them to get healthies!"

[chowder66]

18. This asshole should have his license stripped.

[Docreed2003]

20. Come on down to the "health festival"

Get your funnel cakes and gallbladders removed in the same tent....get your tickets early for discounted rates.


If I was Fetterman, I'd have "They don't have the right to health" playing on repeat in attack ads all over PA

[Captain Zero]

26. Film one at a Children's Hospital

And Oprah should be in PA redeeming her sorry ass by campaigning for Fetterman.

[yellowcanine]

32. Bozo the Clown will do prostate exams!

[louis-t]

22. Fucking whack job.

Pure evil.

[Nevilledog]

33. He's not right in the head

[yardwork]

25. OMG.

[Midnight Writer]

27. "In the future, everyone will get 15 minutes of fame and 15 minutes of healthcare."

[Mike_in_LA]

30. Hernia checks and prostate exams in a festival setting

Sounds incredible!

[yellowcanine]

31. PA voters should vote against Oz in a "festival like setting."

[BlueWavePsych]

35. No heart, no courage, no brain ...

[lindysalsagal]

36. And in return, the gqp thins it deserves your vote, dead or alive
