The following was my horosope for today:
Just when you thought you were finished righteously instructing the world about exactly how it should be run, you've discovered that it's not over yet. They're not quite convinced. Sure, you're up for a couple of days of well-earned rest, but you'll rally if it means getting just one more person to wear your colors. You can rest tomorrow. Maybe. For now, do what you do best: Win them over to your side -- with pure, unbiased logic.
Moving on along, the plot thickens.
My Alma Mater, N.C. Baptist Hospital (which includes Brenner Children's Hospital), is in heapum big trouble with Medicare and Medicaid . . . after this incident on I previously blogged . . . in which a toddler admitted to the hospital for observation after a head injury - was repeatedly assaulted (by the man who allegedly put her in the hospital in the first place) while she was on hospital monitors and her Mother was reportedly sleeping in the same room.
There is video that places the assailant near the child at the time of the attack. As an alumna of the residency program, familiar with child abuse investigations, I think I know exactly what happened.
I could comment/elaborate on this further, but I won't. That might really stir the turds.
The profoundly stupid, scum-sucking-piece-of excrement who tried to kill the two-year-old has been charged with ELEVEN (count 'em) counts of attempted murder.
The child survived her ordeal and went home. If she went home with her Mother, I'm flabber-gasted.
According to the notice, the hospital doesn't meet guidelines in three areas: governing body, patients' rights and nursing services.
And all of the loyalties of youth aside, in my humble opinion, this development is GOOD.
I mean really. It's good. Something went horribly wrong that night. The hospital reported it (pretty much because they couldn't get away with not reporting it), and is owning up, cleaning-up-the-act and making amends. News agencies are investigating and reporting. And the Feds are all over it.
But NCBH is a big "customer" and I have little doubt that this will be resolved without a single payment being missed.
It's all for politically-correct show.
Which brings me right back to why I am in this blogopshere (I'm not inserting links today, it's all in the sidebar):
WHERE IN THE DEEP-BLUE-CLINTONIAN-HELL HAVE THE FEDS (I.E. MEDICAID AND MEDICARE) BEEN WHEN IT COMES TO THE CASE OF DR. MARY JOHNSON . . . A NATIONAL HEALTH-SERVICE PROVIDER WHO CAME HOME TO ASHEBORO TO SERVE THE COMMUNITY WHERE SHE GREW UP . . . A DOCTOR WHO WAS FIRED AFTER DEFYING THE THREATS OF RANDOLPH HOSPITAL EXECUTIVES IN ORDER TO SAVE A BABY'S LIFE (A BABY WHO ALSO NEARLY DIED DUE TO SOMEONE'S ABJECT STUPIDITY, BUT WHO ULTIMATELY SURVIVED TO GO HOME) . . . A BY-ALL-ACCOUNTS DEDICATED, EXCELLENT PEDIATRICIAN WHO SAW EVERY AGREEMENT SHE EVER ENTERED INTO BREACHED AND EVERY DREAM SHE EVER HAD DASHED FOR DOING HER JOB THE WAY IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE DONE . . . A WHISTLE-BLOWING PHYSICIAN WHO WAS SLANDERED, PROFESSIONALLY BLACK-BALLED, LEGALLY BULLIED AND ULTIMATELY SLAPP-SUED FOR REPORTING WHAT HAPPENED TO STATE AND FEDERAL AGENCIES . . . A HOME-GROWN DOCTOR WHO WAS FORCED TO FIGHT/FINANCE HER BATTLE PRETTY MUCH ALL BY HER LONESOME . . . A PUBLIC SERVANT WHO, BECAUSE OF SUB-STANDARD LEGAL REPRESENTATION AND ZERO LEGAL ASSISTANCE FROM THE FEDS WAS ULTIMATELY SWINDLED BY BOLD-FACED PERJURY, CONTEMPT AND FRAUD ON THE PART OF SENIOR RANDOLPH HOSPITAL EXECUTIVES (OVERPAID, OVER-RATED CRETINS WHO REPEATEDLY LIED ABOUT WHAT THEY DID AND WHY - TO THE DOCTOR'S COLLEAGUES AND TO HER PARENTS/PATIENTS, TO THE HOSPITAL BOARD, TO THE COMMUNITY, AND TO THE COURT)?
WHERE HAVE THE "WATCHFUL EYES" OF THE LOCAL NEWS MEDIA ("SERVING" THE WOEFULLY KEPT-IN-THE-DARK CITIZENS OF ASHEBORO AND GREENSBORO) BEEN, BUT ETERNALLY CROSSED . . . JUST ABOVE THE NOSES OF THEIR EDITORS/PUBLISHERS BURIED DEEPLY IN THE BUTT-POCKETS OF MOSES CONE AND RANDOLPH HOSPITALS?
A CHILD NEARLY DIED IN BOTH SITUATIONS . . . ONE AT THE HANDS OF AN ASSAILANT HER MOTHER TRUSTED . . . AND ONE (PERHAPS EVEN MORE OMINOUSLY) AT THE HANDS OF A DOCTOR-WHO-FANCIED-HIMSELF-A-NEONATOLOGIST - SOMEONE HER PARENTS WERE LITERALLY TRICKED INTO TRUSTING BY FALSE ADVERTISING.
WHAT MAKES ONE SITUATION WORTHY OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT'S IMMEDIATE CONDEMNATION/ACTION . . . AND THE OTHER (WHICH INCLUDES CRIMES THAT DO NOT HAVE A STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS) CONSIGNED TO THEIR REGULATORY/PROSECUTORIAL TRASH-HEAP?
WHY IS BAPTIST HOSPITAL DANCING THE PERP DANCE NOW . . . BUT RANDOLPH HOSPITAL HAS BEEN ALLOWED TO SKATE FOR THIRTEEN YEARS?
Please tell me (Edward, JR, Roch, Sue, Ray, J.D., Chip, Annette, ANYBODY). I'd REALLY like to know.
Give me some of your pure, unbiased LOGIC.

It be heapum much harder to hide things in the Twin City, you just were in the wrong place with the Right people Dr. Johnson.....
Indeed, Sir Buzz, it's a whole lot easier to hide things when you own everything, everyone, the newspaper AND Courthouse too.
It also helps when, under the pretense of "charity" you can monopolize the legal system against citizens as a weapon of intimidation and terror . . . while future-felons-in-public office turn their deaf ears.
But NONE of that is logic is it? It's not justice either.
And it's something I hope to soon take up with the Federal government and Obama's Justice Department - in the wake of "reform" that put the IRS in charge of healthcare . . .
. . . the SAME IRS that told this doctor her ordeal at the hands of a "non-profit" meant NOTHING to them.
