This is on DU, but it is a serious post. Someone has written that this doctor, Dr. Jack Cassell, the urologist who put up a sign saying that those who voted for Obama were welcome to go elsewhere for care, has a really low rating on on the 'rate your doctor' internet report sites.
On checking back though, he has had over 1,000 ratings by supposed "patients" plus some that didn't rate but just said what they thought. Oh, and these over 1,000 ratings were all from April 1, April 2 and April 3. Yes 3 days. It's all liberals doing their usual smear campaign against anyone they disagree with. The usual destroy them mentality.
Some conservatives or "real patients" may be rating him up since the liberals are trying to smear and destroy him.

Obama Hating Doctor is helping his patients by turning them away. He was rated poor by Vitals.Com. Updated at 2:42 PM
Edited on Sat Apr-03-10 02:45 PM by TheBigotBasher
After posting a sign on the front door of his office telling any patients who are President Obama supporters to turn around and find a new doctor, Dr. Jack (Ass?) Cassell quickly changed his tune when asked about the sign by reporters. However, he didn’t back off the position, only claimed he wouldn’t turn anyone away.
But, Dr. Cassell might very well be doing his patients a favor by sending them elsewhere. At Vitals.com, a health care rating service, his overall rating by his patients was “Poor”, receiving a 1.0 out of 4 stars, and his wait time was well more than twice the national average of 21 minutes. He had been rated by 450 patients…

Though I suppose they don't figure it's a lie because after all the web site says rating is a 2. It's that moral equivalence and redefining words to fit what they want it to mean.

1. eh
Bunch of doctor rating sites got spammed by people who don't like what he did. Pretending those are real ratings is delusional.

4. The other way round. Updated at 2:42 PM
His ratings were poor already.
The article goes on to say:
At least those were his ratings before this story hit the public. Suddenly Dr. Cassell has enjoyed a bit of an inexplicable bump by an additional 550 “patients” and has had his score increased to 1.5 out of 4 stars. Oddly, his wait time has also been reduced from 51 to 40 minutes, and he has been upgraded from “poor” to “fair”. What could possibly account for this sudden jump in ratings?
