Doctors can refuse treatment at a whim

ProudParenting.com - Gay Reproduction - Lesbian Reproduction - gay & lesbian family and parenting site (): "(Lansing, Michigan) Doctors or other health care providers could not be disciplined or sued if they refuse to treat gay patients under legislation passed Wednesday by the Michigan House."

Truly an embarrassment to the ideals under which the country was originally founded. Please, oh please, let this springboard itself into doctors refusing to treat patients with certain religious or political beliefs -- only so the irony would become clear.

Doctors need to be open and listen to the needs of their patients; the idea that a doctor would summarily refuse to treat a gay person because of some namby-pamby belief in a santa cult must be insulting to doctors who really do want to heal their patients. I want to find these entitled, self-righteous pricks, grab them by the fucking throat and demand "what the hell is the matter with you, dumbass ?!?"

But that's just me.
