Anesthesiologist In AIDS Controversy

MINNEAPOLIS, MN - An anethesiologist recently graduated from the University of Minnesota was censured by the state medical board Friday after making controversial remarks regarding the potential utility of cauterization as a treatment for AIDS.

Dr Amir "Fantastique" Asad was captured on tape lecturing to a layman audience about politics and AIDS. "This political back-and-forth goes nowhere," said Dr Fantastique. "Everywhere I look, it's dicks. There's only one solution. Apply fire. Fire is necessary to remove these outbreaks of of AIDS that have sprung up everywhere and are paralyzing our political discourse." Dr Fantastique then elaborated on the merits of cauterization, insisting that "I love all my bros" and "don't have a problem with others' sexual preferences", but that he remained convinced that "this AIDS has to die, it has to be killed with fire."

"Dr Fantastique's comments were totally unprofessional," said Dr Prielipp, head of the anesthesiology department at UMN. "There is no medical basis for use of cauterization as an AIDS treatment. It throws not only our world-class medical program, but the educational system itself, into question, that a recent graduate could make such irresponsible remarks."

There have been supportive voices from some quarters, however. "It's good to see there are some voices in the medical community not intimidated by the liberal bias on our campuses," said presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee. "Dr Fantastique may be one of those dark-skinned Musselmen types, and he may not even be in this country legally, but he hears the voice of the good Lord, telling us that we should burn all AIDS carriers with fire - and compassion."

Dr Fantastique was unavailable for comment. Calls placed to his residence and cellphone were answered by several dissimilar young female voices, offering conflicting and often purient claims as to his current location.

I don't think that Buffett's a genius, but he is extremely good at what he does, which is no small thing. Even with the advantages he had being the son of a US Congressman, what he's done is incredibly impressive.

I'm not sure what's so impressive about giving everything away when you no longer have any use for it. I'm sure any children he has are already set for life.

My point, for the dense (or willfully ignorant), was that Azelma praises those who are successful under the free market and considers them credible, yet disdains Buffet and his views despite him sitting at the top of the heap, apparently without having done anything evil to get there.

Amongst things Azelma dislikes (Adam Smith, OWS, Warren Buffet, Sigmund Freud), the recurring theme seems to be, things that question the status quo or compel one to think.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa.

When did I ever say I dislike Warren Buffet? I fucking love Warren Buffet. That's why I didn't understand your post....because it was completely WRONG.

And ADAM SMITH? What? Don't you remember when I told you I LIKED Adam Smith?


Fail.

Yes, I remember, and then I remember the part where it was revealed you had never actually read the book and virulently disagreed with what it actually says (as opposed to what you believed it says based on the media's representation of its content).

Same with Buffet, you praise him for suceeding at business investment, presumably because he understands it, then disdain his withering criticism of the entire system and its ideological premise, amongst them the myth of the self-made man.

Funny enough my father is the same way for pretty much the same reason. He's enthralled with books and such that he willfully misses the point of, because doing so allows him to avoid confronting the contradictions in his life.

Explain to me exactly, with quotes, where anything I have said contradicts Warren Buffet, or makes me come off as saying "I disagree with Warren Buffet and don't like him"

Thanks.

Thoroughly enjoyed, I must say.

How, exactly, do Buffett's billion-dollar contributions to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (which has since its inception helped in greatly curbing population growth and disease figures among third-world nations) "mean nothing" to you? Are you that self-centered, that deluded, that set against social justice that you view only your own (likely nonexistent) charitable efforts as true (Scotsman) "philanthropy"?

You oppose so-called entitlement programs, no? You oppose government agency in regard to the public's socioeconomic well-being, no? You oppose the taxation of the rich on the grounds that they provide more worth to the economy when left untouched by regulation --- of this, I'm sure.

And so I must ask: why the fuck are you calling the charitable efforts of one of the richest men in the world --- a product of capitalism and a shining example of the Carnegiesque riche --- "nothing"? You don't want this man's business to be regulated. You don't want him to be taxed. You don't want the government to spend on its own citizens, never mind those of other countries. So how is his charity worth naught when that is, to you, the only acceptable form of social welfare?

Oh, right. Totally forgot. You're just another right-leaning, doublethinking drone, the responsibilities of whom include opposing the left, opposing the left and, perhaps most importantly, opposing the left.

Not at all. Good for him for giving everything he has away after it no longer means anything to him.

But I'm not going to hump his leg over it.

You're willfully ignoring the substance of what Dagery said. He isn't just giving away his money after he dies, and he is doing the most that can be done according to your vision. Simply put, if this does not make him worthy of praise according to you, then nothing can.

You're just looking for an excuse to be churlish towards someone on the left...which was my point. People resent Warren Buffet because he questions the status quo and challenges this lazy, selfish libertarian BS.

The entire appeal of these ideologies like libertarianism and shrinkology is they facilitate mental laziness. No need to think about unknowns, social choices, alternatives to the status quo, limits to selfish indulgence or the pitfalls of airy optimism.

Smile, do what you want, drink the koolaid, and all will be well.
