Fort Hood and How

I can save the Federal government a lot of money.

Everyone keeps asking...how can this guy have dissed the U.S. and did all this stuff without ever being turned into the commander or FBI or whatever?

First of all, if he had been a regular combat soldier or anybody but an officer...this wouldn't have happened. The NCOs would have never put up with it.

Second, he was a doctor. Anybody who works in the medical fields knows exactly what I mean when I say that. Doctors do NOT diss other doctors. Period. It's a code of ethics. You don't diss another doctor (unless of course a lawyer is paying you to and that's another blog), you don't question another doctor, and you certainly do not get one in trouble.

It is the culture of the medical field. If you diss on another doctor, much less if you have the chance of being perceived as racist, you can kiss your medical career goodbye because nobody is going to want to be associated with you.

So this is not just a simple political correctness situation. This has to do with officers and the medical field in general. I dictate reports by Muslim doctors all day long. I can tell you without any doubt whatsoever in my mind that if any one of these doctors at any hospital was spouting off anti-American crap (and I've heard some myself) it would go completely under the radar. Even if they became so obnoxious something had to be done...hospital head honchos would just politely suggest they transfer to another hospital. They certainly wouldn't call the FBI.

Doctors have their own brand of mafia. They have their methods of "taking care of" doctors they don't like but for the most part they protect their own. It's a "If I diss you you can diss me back" kind of thing. It's like working in an episode of Dynasty. These people are millionaires. They live in a very exclusive club, one which is increasingly becoming ethnic, and they don't play by the usual rules. We are "mere patients" to these guys. YES...I've known many down-to-earth wonderful doctors...I love my own doctor whose office looks like a 1960s nursery school. But I've also known doctors who have ruined the careers or other doctors and who have even tried to commit MURDER!!!! I'm telling you....surgeons are PSYCHO.

But anyway.....

Just my two cents...if anyone cares.
