Spot On

From the comments:

Not at all surprising that El Presidente Maximo "el Uno" doesn't know what he's talking about.

His remark about tonsillectomies and amputations has shown him to be a man out of sync with the times.The last time that tonsillectomies are performed similar to what he claimed was back in the 60's. Back then, if the tonsils are thought to harbor organisms that cause frequent sore throats, they will be taken out. Nowadays, there are those who will carry strep in their tonsils as carriers without symptoms. They are about 15% of the pediatric population, as per the Atlanta ENT's web page on strep/tonsillectomy.

If el Presidente's advisers can't find this information, which took me all of 6 minutes (bathroom break, including hand washing), how can we trust him and his advisers to get "healthcare reform" right?

It says it all.

Thanks, DI.
