Biden And Obama's Medical Hypocrisy
Both avoid the transparency they speak of. Obama:
The letter was short, the Obama campaign said, because Mr. Obama had not had any serious health problems. The campaign declined to make Dr. Scheiner available for an interview...
Biden:
The medical records released by the campaign contain a summary of Mr. Biden’s operation and hospital stay in 1988 but no notes from a neurologist or neurosurgeon since then. So it is not known whether Mr. Biden has had recent brain imaging scans or has been evaluated by a neurologist or neurosurgeon recently.
Dr. Parker said he did not ask Dr. Eisold when a neurologist or
neurosurgeon last examined Mr. Biden.
Four leading neurosurgeons interviewed separately in this country and
Europe said that as a vice-presidential nominee, Mr. Biden should have
had recent brain imaging studies to detect any new aneurysm, because if
one is found he might face more neurosurgery and be out of work for
weeks or longer.
There's still time.
