U.S. Surgeon General and the 2nd Amendment

Here is a statement from the Attorney General's Office summarizing a little about this Presidential nominated civil servant.

"As the Nation’s Doctor, the Surgeon General provides Americans with the best scientific information available on how to improve their health and reduce the risk of illness and injury.  In 2010, the Affordable Care Act designated the Surgeon General as the Chair of the newly formed National Prevention Council, which provides coordination and leadership among 20 executive departments with respect to prevention, wellness, and health promotion activities.
The Surgeon General oversees the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps (USPHS), an elite group of more than 6,700 uniformed officer public health professionals working throughout the Federal government whose mission is to protect, promote, and advance the health of our Nation.  Additionally, the Office of the Surgeon General is the headquarters for the Civilian Volunteer Medical Reserve Corps, a national network of more than 200,000 volunteers committed to improving the public health, emergency response, and resiliency of their communities."

With President Obama's latest nomination to this post, he has selected someone that will no doubt be concerned with those most crucial issues of the medical field such as taking guns away from law abiding citizens by interrogation of children and other patients as to the presence of constitutionally protected weapons in private homes.  As the President and Co-Founder of Doctors for America he has been at the helm as this group promotes restricting the 2nd Amendment, proselytizing for the Affordable Care Act and the number one health issue of our day, contraceptives. 

No kidding, these are the core values of this group that has produced our President's nomination as Surgeon General.

I think when people go to the doctor, they want competence not political activism.  The problem is that as the government becomes even more tied into the medical system and the database keeps growing on what private medical information they have access to, you can clearly see that there will be nothing to stop further incursions into liberty and freedom under the guise of "improving health and reducing risk of illness and injury".  Stand by, looks like another round of bold and fearless change coming to a doctor's office near you.
