Typical dem: "Do as I say, not as I do".

[Barbella]

“The OBGYN practice of Marilyn Jerome, the wife of Democratic congressional candidate John Foust, does not accept Medicaid, the Washington Free Beacon has learned. Foust has repeatedly attacked his Republican opponent Barbara Comstock for opposing the Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act in his campaign to represent Virginia’s 10th district.”]

Too funny.... in a pathetic, sad way....

Stunning hypocrisy.

If you're going to attack someone for OPPOSING something, shouldn't YOU, then, ACCEPT that very same thing?

Or should you revile someone for not wanting to accept something while not accepting it yourself? Because accepting Medicaid patients would cut into Jerome's profit, which is BAD, but it's good enough for everyone else?

Hmmmm???

If you support the expansion of Medicaid, yet refuse to accept it as payment, doesn't that seem, well, a tad hypocritical?

we're talking two distingct things. do i think it a touch hypocritical...something some may exploit...sure.. it's politics.

but it does not stand as an example of opposing MC provision... just affirms that she thinks what is provided in the way of payment is not worth the effort to her.

maybe that's where the argument should be.. that it's great to expand it, but that it isnt worth shit in the way of payment to the spouse of a politician who advocates for it...

which is what many said in that regard.. it shafts the practitioner.. and she's an example...

So what she's saying: YOU "people" do it. For ME, it isn't good enough.
