Denzel Washington's "John Q" - who was the cardiac surgeon?

[Coastie for Truth]

I saw Denzel Washington's "John Q" last night (third time, first time since L'Affaire Schiavo).

Question - did the arrogant cardiac surgeon remind you of a Republican Senator from Tennessee (who does neurological diagnoses long distance based on five year old, heavily edited videos and vivisects cats)?

7. Yes, James Woods!

he was also in "Ghosts of Mississippi"...he played racist white supremacist and assassin Byron De la Beckwith, who killed civil rights activist Medgar Evans in the 60s but wasn't convicted until the 90s.

I hope that show made some people think. It was a repeat, right? Couldn't have been shown at a better time.

We all need basic health care. Our taxes should see to it that we get it.

4. When I saw it in the movies, I hoped tons of people saw it.

But I'm afraid with the movie showing Hillary Clinton at the end, it may sway idiot republicans from thinking about healthcase for everyone.

5. The point I was trying to make

as I watched the arrogant doc, Mr Frist (I don't call him DR - his for profit HCA closed the busiest ER in our county, and the only downtown ER).

There is a pun there.
