Watch an HCMC Doctor beat down Scarbourough on MSNBC (RE Schaivo)
Edited on Tue Mar-29-05 06:30 PM by Worst Username Ever
Scarborough and this female reporter don't know what they are talking about, this is great. Right click, "Save Target As."

Scarborough tries to recover afterwords by saying that the interview was "disappointing," without mentioning anything the doc said about his facts being completely wrong.

I gotta write that doctor a letter.

My cousin's husband suffered a brain injury when he fell on his head from his garage rafters, and was treated at HCMC. I wonder if Dr. Cranford ever got involved?

On edit: I just got to the end of the clip - Scarborough is such a fucking sleaze. He couldn't address any of Dr. Cranford's facts, and so AFTER he cuts off the Dr's mic, he goes off insinuating that he must have been "paid off" by some lawyers.

5. Scarborough says "I've been attorneys for..." says he's been "attys"
two or three times - I guess he was a multi-tasker or a split personality

7. my son is a paramedic
used to ride for HCMC. He said to me once, "If anything drastic happens to you, demand to be taken to HCMC. Best docs in the world. Better than Mayo."

Guess he was right.

8. My "cousin-in-law" was pretty messed up.
Couple of blood clots in his brain, skull fractured, he was out cold for a few weeks but was able to recover. He's not 100%, never will be, but is 95%+. Considering most people probably thought he was a goner, HCMC staff are miracle workers.

9. glad to hear it
95% is better than the alternative.

That doctor on the interview *really* impressed me. So much for Minnesota Nice. Minnesota Smarts takes first place.

6. You used the wrong link for the video!
http://www.crooksandliars.com/2005/03/29.html#a2209 is the correct one. The other link goes directly into the server. It happens a lot by mistake. Can you please change it Worst name ever. :-)

10. Scarborough is laughable
He asks the TOP neurologists and neuroscientists in the country, some of which are also the top in the world, "who are YOU to say what is wrong with Terri Schiavo?'

These people have devoted their lives to researching and treating horrible disorders of the brain. There isn't any other medical discipline qualified to diagnose Schiavo.

Unbelievable that MSNC gave him his own show. He epitimizes everything that's wrong with this country.

11. FYI - Today's Strib has a great article on Dr. Cranford.
Edited on Wed Mar-30-05 08:45 AM by trotsky
I strongly urge everyone to send him a note of support, even though it sounds like he's got plenty of personal fortitude.

On edit: Forgot the link!

12. I watched that the other night
It was a beautiful thing.

Scarborough has gone off the deep end on this one. Al Franken also ripped him a new one. Minnesotans don't fall for his BS
