You know, Alan Grayson's district.
In a recent CNN appearance, Rep. Grayson told host Anderson Cooper that he's filed a formal complaint against Dr. Cassell with the Florida Department of Health and the Florida Medical board.This should be...interesting.
"He's a very confused individual. That much is obvious," Grayson said. "But what he's doing clearly is a violation of the ethics rules that you cited earlier, the Hippocratic oath, the rules of the AMA. And it's at the expense of his patients and care. What he's doing is no different from saying, 'I will not treat a black person. I will not treat a Catholic.'
"I thought that we, as a country, has moved beyond that."
I wonder how this will turn out.

Just to clarify, this numbskull is in Mt. Dora, not Orlando. Mt. Dora is about 30 miles from Orlando and is a more rural area. It is in Grayson's district, but his district stretches from Orlando north some 100 miles to Ocala.
As an Orlando native, I wanted to put some distance between us and this screwball. Not that we don't have our share.
Where is the Alan Grayson clone I ordered last year?
Fair enough. I do like to differentiate between Cincy and NKY here across the river, fuddmain. I can relate to that distance thing at times.
And yes, MOAR ALAN GRAYSON please.
Yes more Alan Grayson, we can't have enough blowhards shooting off at the mouth in congress.
"What he is doing is no different from saying I will not treat a black person." Grayson said.
See how quickly this blowhard turns it to race? That's how this seems to work. Just like people hearing racial slurs from the Tea Party. Funny how a $100k challenge was made and yet it wasn't answered. You would think one person would have something if it weren't all a lie.
Anderson Cooper made a very valid point.
"COOPER: But wait, wait, wait a minute. I mean, I'm not taking a side, I'm not taking anybody's side in this, but just for accuracy's sake, he had said nothing about race and race is a protected category, I mean, there are -- it's illegal to discriminate someone based on race, but it's not illegal to say you don't want to treat somebody because you don't like their politics. Politics is not a protected class."
Grayson did make a racist statement though. He stated most of the blacks in Mt. Dora were Democrat. So I guess he's just buying into the stereotypes. Maybe he should also add they were seeing the urologist from drinking to much Grape Drink
