Less than HOSPITAbLe


The Chicago Sun Times has a damning article about the Presumptive First Lady and her hubby's posse.















U. of C. shunning poor patients?

Sen. Barack Obama's wife and three close advisers have been involved with a program at the University of Chicago Medical Center that steers patients who don't have private insurance -- primarily poor, black people -- to other health care facilities.

Michelle Obama -- currently on unpaid leave from her $317,000-a-year job as a vice president of the prestigious hospital -- helped create the program...

Interestingly the University of Chicago Medical Center is receiving in tax breaks FIVE TIMES what it spends on charity care.

That's sick and the scientific community is united in that fact.

The Urban Health Initiative is the name of the program and it's the first time Michelle Obama has been really proud of her hospital.
