From the Journal of Unnecessary Surgery (via Instapundit)
Whatever happened to ethical medicine?
She should have frozen the belly button.
We used to sometimes remove it with big umbilical hernia but then there was no "button."
I just had an elective 3 hour procedure that went well. The surgeon is an expert in innovative techniques and appears to have done a good job. My recovery is long and complex, but with a good prognosis.
However, my view of the current healthcare system is otherwise quite negative. Maybe it is because I am new to Medicare.
The hospital administration woefully understaffs the post-op floors. The nursing staff is way overworked and inefficient. It took 4 1/2 hours to check me out after my surgeon released me.
The nursing staff, while kind and friendly was ill prepared to manage the situation left in their hands. Multiple senior nurses did not understand the procedure and consistently misidentified it, asking to see belly scars although there were no incisions. They could not provide adequate post-op instructions. My fiancé and I have been figuring it out on our own.
I worry about less capable senior citizens who may have the experience of having a successful operation, but a tragic recovery.
This shit is broken and will only get worse as we march towards (greater) socialized medicine.
Since having her belly button removed...Landeros...regrets her decision, describing it as "reckless and impulsive".
The tattoos, piercings, and spinal trussing however she continues to regard as major self-affirming decisions.
Good Luck FD.
FD, when you get well, let's have lunch and you can regale me with your war story.
What do you think of this Blexit thing. Game changer or no big deal?
If this is a thing... There is a new "Apollo study" using an "Intrepid valve(?)" from Medtronics for a next generation TMVR. So my father, instead of an open heart valve replacement with a 50-50 chance, can maybe (pray he qualifies!) get done with just a stiff stick straight into the bottom of the heart, pop in the cow part, sew it up and done.
How far we've come!
I will say that for everyone with your dreamy sounding $25,000 retirement homes, with the trout fishing and all, there's still some benefit to life in/near the big city.
Robert "The FBI Whitewasher" Mueller is disgracing the USA by charging a Russian food-catering business, Concord Management, with conspiracy to interfere in the USA's 2016 presidential election.
The defense attorneys are treating Mueller with the utter contempt that he deserves. The most recent communication to the court about Mueller's disgraceful indictment begins as follows.
[quote]
To summarize: WRONG ANSWER.
Concord has consistently argued that the Indictment charges no crime at all (interference with an election), but to the extent it purports to charge a crime the essential element of willfulness is fatally absent. The Special Counsel’s retort
has been that he was not required to charge willfulness because he did not charge violations of FECA or FARA.
Now, in mind-bending, intergalactic, whiplash fashion, he says for the first time, I did, I did, I charged violations of FECA and FARA.1 Reminiscent of the old adage, Give a man enough rope and he will hang himself,” the Special Counsel just did so.

Whatever you think about whatever the Russians may have done... Doesn't Mueller suck, against anybody capable of putting up a fight? Don't we deserve less feeble Feebs?
And I should have said: Señor d'Anconia, wishing you a speedy and complete recovery!
More class from the left during a moment of silence for the synagogue victims.

Choice. Pro-Choice. And Drift.
More blogger craziness.
Jersey Fled -- It wouldn't take too many Blexit supporters to either stay home or vote apart from the Democrat party to make the impact significant.
Newest Trump tweet:
"The Fake News is doing everything in their power to blame Republicans, Conservatives and me for the division and hatred that has been going on for so long in our Country. Actually, it is their Fake & Dishonest reporting which is causing problems far greater than they understand!"
I never thought in my lifetime that I would see a President fight back so effectively and relentlessly against the media.

From Medicare, the hospital and nurses only get 60% payments on what they charge as compared to what they get from private patients and so they do only 60% of the job. I hope you get better soon.
FD, when you get well, let's have lunch and you can regale me with your war story.
Sounds good Michael. We can celebrate the victories of Wendy Rogers (my new congressperson) and Lea Marquez Peterson (yours). The Dems are desperate here as evidenced by their transparently dishonest attack ads.
I have two steps to go for recovery, if you know the HoTEP procedure.
The media seem not to know how unhinged they look to us normals. How can that be? The $$? Capitalists!!
The thing I hated most about my recent hospital stay was the self adjusting bed. Drove me nuts, moved all around whenever I turned over, and contravened my desired settings.
And everyone telling me how great they were, because you don't have to turn the patient or something.
Bullshit.
Thanks everyone for your good wishes. It means a lot.
Not one told me that getting older meant having yearly surgical procedures. My self image is that of a healthy, physically active guy.
Oh well. I will be back to hiking Sabino and Ventana Canyons after Thanksgiving. We called that time of year "winter" in Chicago. Here in Arizona, it's early Fall.
@Francisco D, is it too late for me to add my own good wishes?
"20 minutes of terror"
The Pittsburgh shooting is in full entertainment mode.
As with #MeToo the wrong lesson has been assumed as well.
The crimes are crimes and the non-crimes are non-crimes. Nobody gets that straight.
Mueller and his clown show get absolutely destroyed in court.
The lawyers representing Concord Management quoted Tweety Bird mocking Mueller and his joke investigation.
"Concord has consistently argued that the Indictment charges no crime at all (interference with an election), but to the extent if purports to charge a crime the essential element of willfulness is fatally absent. The Special Counsel’s retort has been that he was not required to charge willfulness because he did not charge violations of FECA or FARA. Now, in mind-bending, intergalactic, whiplash fashion, he says for the first time, I did, I charged violations of FECA and FARA.(1) Reminiscent of the old adage, “Give a man enough rope and he will hang himself,” the Special Counsel just did so.
(1) Which sounds a lot like “I did, I did, I taw a puddy tat.” Tweetie (1948)."
They also noted that Muller indicted a company that didn't exist when the "crimes" were committed.
I told you the democrats would be coming up with daily outrages to cover up the massive failure of the Russian Collusion hoax.
Here we are.
Soon the democrats will be saying "why can't we all get along?"

I think that a selection the president's tweets, speeches, and public statements should be collected and printed in a book, and it should be a small book so kids can handle it easily while they read it, probably should have a simple cover, something not ostentatious but memorable, maybe just a single bold color like red because Republican, right? So we collect all the best speeches and phrases of our great president, and there are a lot of them by the way, but these are just gonna be the very best because we don't want a book that's too big, and we make this book, which is basically How To Be A Great Person And A Great American, and we distribute it freely, we don't even charge money for it, and we get them reading it in schools across the country, soon as kids start school it'll be part of the curriculum, so that before long, every citizen in this great country of ours appreciates how great America, and our president, really is.
Now what would be a good title for a book like that?
Glad to see that others are calling Diane Feinstein's 11th hour introduction of the Ford letter into the Kavanaugh hearings a massive "own goal." I have seen NBA players try to tip the ball away only to tip it into their own basket, but an own goal in soccer is an even worse mistake, because you are deliberately kicking the ball in the direction of your goal, and not merely trying to block or tip another person's shot.
But now the Senators in trouble apparently include Stabenow and Nelson, and meanwhile Heller seems to be safer than he's been all election season. Massive own goal on Feinstein's part.

And Menendez...
And Whitehouse...
And Stabenow...
Big Mike
I lived in Mi for a dozen years. I predicted Trump would carry it. But Stabenow is a lock. I'd like to believe she could lose, but she cannot.
Nelson I dunno. The GOP has a tough time winning close elections that are within the margin of fraud.
Blexit is a clever meme. It deserves to flourish. I think it will take at least one more election cycle though.
Sinema seems to be gaining. Maybe Nevadans deserve the scorn she has for them?
News is bad for you!
The Dodgers lose.
Good.
Manny Machado grabbed his balls in front of a crowd that included lots of children, in an arrogant gesture.
While he should be in jail, and he is not
at least the creep did not win the World Series
And thank God, I do not have to listen to the little men Joe Buck and John Smoltz anymore this year.
Am I the only person who expects professional athletes not to grab their balls in public, in front of a paying crowd ?
Screw little Joe Buck and screw little John Smoltz. They are the moat coldhearted boring sports announcers I have ever listened to.
Congrats to the Red Sox.
@Ken B, Sinema is from Arizona.
Boston won again. Please hate us more flyovers.

Obama supported partial birth abortion
he supported the killing of children whose only fault was that they had been conceived 7 months ago instead of 10 months ago
so ....
tell us again about how much you hate Trump
Trump is against partial birth abortion
you are for it
amirite?
look, argue with me all you want, but under Obama rules those children are dead
under Trump rules those children are alive, and will be alive for a long time]]]
the average year in which a child who lived under Trump rules, even though the parent wanted an abortion, is 2107
the average age in which the same child died, under Obama rules, is 2015
Live not by lies, steve uhr,
Obama, in his cold hearted stupidity, supported late term abortion,
Do not go down that evil road with him!
Mr Cooper. Funny how you thought my last post was about abortion. But so long as you raised the issue, I'm against partial birth abortion except when the mothers life is in danger.
While I don't think that Machado belongs in jail for grabbing his balls, maybe for assault on other players, but whatever, still it was very sweet to see the Dodgers go down with him swinging out of his shoes and losing his balance on their final strike.
You could see the strikeout in his eyes when he stepped up to the plate, or at least that's how I felt. He was beaten and he tried too hard.

"America’s economy is booming like never before. Since my election, we’ve added $10 trillion in wealth. The stock market is at an all-time high in history, and jobless claims are at a 50-year low. African American, Hispanic American, and Asian American unemployment have all achieved their lowest levels ever recorded. We’ve added more than 4 million new jobs, including half a million manufacturing jobs."
More for steve:
"That is why America will always choose independence and cooperation over global governance, control, and domination.
I honor the right of every nation in this room to pursue its own customs, beliefs, and traditions. The United States will not tell you how to live or work or worship. We only ask that you honor our sovereignty in return."
"The missiles and rockets are no longer flying in every direction. Nuclear testing has stopped. Some military facilities are already being dismantled. Our hostages have been released. And as promised, the remains of our fallen heroes are being returned home to lay at rest in American soil.
I would like to thank Chairman Kim for his courage and for the steps he has taken, though much work remains to be done. The sanctions will stay in place until denuclearization occurs."
"If there was an armed guard inside the temple, they would have been able to stop him,"
"When people do this, they should get the death penalty," he said. "Anybody that does a thing like this to innocent people that are in temple or in church ... they should be suffering the ultimate price, they should pay the ultimate price."
Trump is saying very intelligent things steve.
Every day.
The problem you have is he is smarter than you and all the people you sent to DC to represent you.
He is making you all look stupid.
Amazing how none of the denizens of our menagerie of trolls voted for Hillary, but they are all hurt when she is insulted, for some reason.
DO NOT READ
Donald Trump's Dangerous Book
The Title
Congrats to the Red Sox. One of the most impressive baseball seasons start to finish of all time.
I was watching Hillary admit she's thinking about running and wishing I'd taken more bets that she will try for 2020. But she's not at all well, not at all. If mind and will could do it all, she'd get the nomination but the body is not on board with this candidate and she needs its endorsement.

Achilles quotes Trump: "...I honor the right of every nation in this room to pursue its own customs, beliefs, and traditions. The United States will not tell you how to live or work or worship. We only ask that you honor our sovereignty in return." That is truly one of the best statements I've heard from a US leader in many years.
steve uhr - abortion is not funny.
Years from now, most of us will be dead.
At that point in time, we will understand, aborion was never a funny topic, it was always about selfish violence.
When a lot of people look at the evildoer Obama they see a cool guy
Obama supported partial birth abortion
You can't be in favor of killing litlle kids and also be someone who people respect
So no Obama was never cool, he was always that loser whom nobody respected (no matter h9w much Althouse liked him, he was always a cold-hearted mediocrity - come on, you know that is true ...)
I recognize that little Barry would have gone nowhere if he had been pro-life
well, he could have been a man his wife respected, and a Christian in a world of evil-doers, but being a man who deserves respect, and being a Christian, was not enough , when he thought about it, for poor little abortion-supporter Barry
look I like the little guy, I think of him as the sort of little guy who could have been my own son
but
the world is what it is
you simply cannot support the killing of little children and still expect to be happy in this world, as if you were the sort of person
who never supported the killing of little children
Now, let us talk man to man.
Trump has done some shitty despicable things in his life.
He fucked women who got paid to be fucked by him, and we all know he felt little concern for the fact that he was rich and they were poor.
He sucked up to the woman-hater Harold Stern .... at a time when he himself had daughters ... look, I get why people want to suck up to Harold Stern, but I do not get why any decent man with a daughter would talk to that scumbag misogynist ... if you don't believe me, look up what little Howard talked about when Barbara Bush had recently died, the scumbag misogynist spent 20 minutes laughing about how Barbara Bush in her last days had been .... well, look it up, I am not going to repeat the poor little ugly man's slanders...
So, think about all that.
All of us have had days where we were in charge of the world, where we could pretty much take what we wanted.
The important thing is to repent for the times we were wrong, and to feel intense gratitude -
-
as in the sky is not beautiful enough to represent our gratitude -
the important thing is to feel the gratitude we should.
For example, tonight you disagreed with me.
Maybe I am the internet equivalent of one of those bums who walk up and down the street with a lying sign about how they are veterans.
In that case, you disagreeing with me should make you happy!
Or maybe I am more like Shakespeare than anybody who has ever posted an obscure comment on the internet - and that would not be nothing, would it be> And maybe you, too, are at that level ...
in which case, you disagreeing with me would make you happy.
Be happy , my friend: Philippinans, first two chapters, Ephesians, first two chapters ....
or something better.
I was probably old, at least in my heart, before you were born .....
and so I know that you have seen things, witnessed the deeds of angels, that I have not seen or witnessed ....
but let me tell you this
you do not want to know as much as I know about how sad it is to live in a world where so many women are deceived by evil doers into thinking that they were not sacrificing everything when they visited that abortion clinic
You know that, I know that
Poor Obama was just a little servant to the zeitgeist
The poor little man, sort of a less brave version of Don Knotts
"We came! We saw! He died" is more steve uhr's cup of tea.
I agree about Joe Buck. His droning monotone gets on my nerves. So happy for Boston! Best MLB team in many years.
I told you, Hillary is definitely running again, and I am not sure I would bet against her winning the nomination if the field is greater than 3, and I think it will be more than 6.

Obama supported partial birth abortion
What has always struck me, is that Obama was exactly the type of kid most likely to be aborted. Single, White teen-aged mother impregnated by a foreign, married Black man.
Thinking back through my own life, I think only the 98 Yankees were superior beginning to end to this edition of the Red Sox- that team won 114 games. The 75 Reds were a better lineup than any team I ever saw play, but their pitching was never stellar. Of course, there was Mariners team in the early oughts that won 116 games, but they never made it to the World Series.
Gahrie - I have been in love with women much less attractive than Obama's mother.
My life has been ridiculously difficult - I knew what evil was before I could talk ---
but there is no way that I would have agreed to an abortion , no matter who the child was ....
I would have been there for any child.
Look, I realize that, a few hundred years from now, me and Obama will be equally forgotten by history..
Whether anyone cares or not, I once said this:
God loves us all. No child of mine ever risked being aborted. May God forgive everyone who cannot say the same.
Blogger Stephen Cooper ...
When you look in the mirror, what do you see?
When you speak, what do you hope to accomplish?
Do you need more faith or more good works?
I take a slightly different take, as someone who was of immigrant background, who was half white i thought Obama could transcend the gordian knot of race in this country, this was before I read more about him.
But his bohemian mother, absent father and this whole circle of alienated persons from the American experience from Frank Davis on, set him on exactly the same path of apartness from that quintessential experience his undergraduate and other formative moments compounded this problem.
Now trump is a different story, even a few years I thought him too arrogant, too proud and a little obnoxious, then I saw how practically institution was being torn down with little left in its place. He may have grown up a good upper west side liberal but he didn't quite fit in that world exactly either. He saw the heartland and the south, exactly the parts of the country disdained by the media as the audience to appeal to. He's done many of the right things to reach out to those audiences he may have alienated in speech and deed in the past.
Another spy was in the Trump campaign...
Amazing.

Who’s wife just happened to be a vp of a security firm that hired the unarmed security for the not official state Dept outpost in Benghazi per judicial watch.

Is that a crazy read on things, so this whole hysteria that began with Weinstein seems to be sputtering in some parts because it touches some people deemed untouchable no one joked about Weinstein at these awards shows like no one jokes about don corleone to his face.
Fascinating and yet unsurprising, he also was under consideration as FBI director, well some people thought so.
We want presidents who are larger than life, which trump is, but he's also who seems approachable hence the rallies, now what may not be a small r Republican sentiment but it is the. Nature of 21st century america.
Blogger Mike Sylwester said...
Robert "The FBI Whitewasher" Mueller is disgracing the USA . . .
Congratulations! You opened your mouth and insert your foot! Robert S, Mueller III is an upstanding citizen and public servant. Mueller served 12 years as director of the FBI; he voluntarily enlisted in the Marines in order to fight in Vietnam; then he graduated from the Army's demanding Ranger training and fought as a rifle platoon leader earning a Bronze Star with V distinction for combat valor. Perhaps a "Thank you for your service, Bobby Three Sticks" might be in order - and his performance in carefully investigating the Russian involvement in our election, has proven beyond doubt that the Russians interfered with help from the Trump campaign.
Now, if you would calmly assess the successful indictments of Trump cronies and the evidence piling up about the President's less-than-honest lifestyle, you may conclude, as many of us have, that Trump's lies and conspiracy theories have never held water.
The first cabinet were the establishment grandees who he was forced to accept Tillerson mcmasters (globalists to coin a phrase) Pompeo and Bolton are by contrast more nationalist more willing to change things
Then came Boston where he was cleaning up the mess the liaison with bulger entailed, bcci where he shut that investigation down. The travesty done to Stephen hastings sabotaging the CIA's interrogation program the witchhunt against AIPAC. Those are just some of the highlights
Hatfill, and Bruce bivins who was the second bite of the apple, not to mention the clients he and his firm, retained in the interim.
Well, half of my wished-for WS match-up did make it to the big show, and won it all. Next year maybe the Brewers can get there. For 86 years there was bupkus for the Sox despite several trips to the big show (1946,1967,1975,1986). Finally the curse was broken in 2004 and over the next 14 years they've won 3 more titles.
“@Ken B, Sinema is from Arizona”
Let us maybe more precise there - she is running for Senator from AZ. This is the woman who famously called AZ the meth lab of democracy. And, yes, part of the problem there is that she supports open borders, including the open trafficking of meth across the border with Mexico.
Not to mention what Mueller did on the anthrax investigation fiasco...
It’s amazing He became fbi director.
And he’s professionally joined to Comey, yet supposedly is doing a non partisan / biased investigation?
Concord managements court appearance is priceless!
At the synagogue why were all the victims old?
Does this just represent the composition / membership demographics?

No big deal - Kanye's still bi-polar, so no one's taking him seriously. As was said, #WalkAway is gaining more ground, though - I can guarantee you - blacks are looking at this last week and wondering where they would #WalkAway to, because the Right / the Republicans / the GOP looks crazy. Most that do leave will go Independent, I'd wager, which still weakens the Democrats.
It's terrible Trump's visit with the young black Republicans couldn't see more light. It was a great event. But just for him.
The Party still has major issues to get over.
I finally saw the baseball score last night: Red Sox 9, Yankees 27.

steve uhr said:" I'm against partial birth abortion except when the mothers life is in danger."
The logic of pro-aborts continues to confound me. Let's break down what you said here:
You are against partial birth abortion. Why? Is it because it's taking a life? Or is there some other reason that escapes me?
OTOH, you say if the mother's life is in danger it's OK. Why? Is her life worth more than an unborn child? Or maybe you think it's not a child. Help me here.

Robert S, Mueller III is an upstanding citizen and public servant. Mueller served 12 years as director of the FBI
@gadfly, I probably have a bit of an advantage on you since I actually was in the audience for a speech by Robert Mueller not long after he took over from Louis Freeh, and I recall thinking at the time that I was listening to a crap weasel. Nothing I have learned about him since then changes that impression. I have known for some time that during the time that the Boston office of the FBI was the personal plaything of notorious mobster Whitey Bulger that the FBI railroaded four innocent men into prison for a murder that they didn’t commit and had nothing to do with. This was supposedly to protect s valuable source but it later came out that it was done at the behest of a Boston-area mobster to help him settle old scores. As the reality trickled out a Boston Assistant District Attorney fought fang and claw to keep the four innocent men incarcerated. That ADA was Robert Mueller III.
Does this just represent the composition / membership demographics?
There was a bris going on that morning, so there must have been a young couple and a baby. In fact I read that it involved a gay couple and twins. Maybe the younger people were able to escape or hide more easily.
"Thinking back through my own life, I think only the 98 Yankees were superior beginning to end to this edition of the Red Sox- that team won 114 games"
Of course they were. That's why I call Yankees fans "historians." Once baseball clipped their money advantage, it hasn't been the same, has it? This team reminds me more of the old Orioles teams. "Great pitching and three run homers will win you a lot of games." Yankees are too in love with solo home runs.
Baseball, a wonderful game in person, is unwatchable on television. At every moment the ball is not actually in play, a camera is shoved in the face of someone. You can count the nose hairs on the pitcher, batter, manager. It is awful. There is never a wide shot of the field so you can see the defensive positions and shifts. There is only the camera up-the-nose. Who thought this would add to the enjoyment of a televised baseball game? Does anyone, at a live baseball game, bring binoculars in order to look up the nostrils of players, managers, coaches?
For all the talk about the Yankees and the money advantage, the core of that late 90s dynasty was home grown. It was not a group of mercenaries like the 80s teams that didn't go anywhere. The wealth advantage allowed them to keep their core through the next decade, but it wasn't quite the same. They spent and spent on new acquisitions and only got one more title to show for it. The current group they have is also mostly home grown, and the wealth will allow them to keep this core intact for years to come if they so choose.
Well, Tim, I am definitely not a Yankee's fan. Facts are facts- the 98 team was probably the best baseball team top to bottom during my 52 years on the planet.
OTOH, you say if the mother's life is in danger it's OK. Why? Is her life worth more than an unborn child? Or maybe you think it's not a child. Help me here.
Humperdink, here is some of what may be fairly called orthodox Jewish doctrine of the subject:
https://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/529077/jewish/What-Is-the-Jewish-View-on-Abortion.htm
Please read.
So you don't remember the great Orioles teams? That figures. But then again, I always considered basing your team on home run hitters the way the Yankess do as kind of a freak show not real baseball, more like a circus attraction like hitting the bell contraption with a hammer.
Orioles 100+ win seasons in 1969 (109), 1970 (108), 1971 (101), 1979 (102), and 1980 (100).
Hard to believe the O's only won in one of those 100 win seasons, though they did win two more titles in 1966 and 1983. Only one player was on all three WS champion teams...
