Default Dems block medical liability bill

Dems block medical liability bill
Reuters.com, by Staff
Washington- Senate Democrats on Monday blocked Republicans' latest attempts to limit damages for pain and suffering in medical malpractice lawsuits. Republicans offered two versions of the bill, one applying to all malpractice cases and the other limited to obstetrics and gynecology, an area with high malpractice insurance costs.
Hopefully another in a long line of Democrat travesties, will become an election issue this fall. But Republicans are too polite, or too beholden to lawyers, to mention how much uncapped malpractice awards hurt their constituency.

This is outrageous! I happen to think that I have the greatest ob-gyn under the sun..and we have had many good conversations on his insurance premiums. He is 52 years old and is waiting for his youngest to finish college and he is gone. 3 years and he is retiring.
