So I recently came across this article on yahoo news. One section struck me as odd:
Several surgeons uninvolved in Clinton's care said they didn't think his doctors would risk treating him with newer, experimental approaches like robotic surgery or laparoscopy, sometimes called keyhole surgery. "With three-vessel disease in a president, I don't think I'd be doing it," said Dr. W. Randolph Chitwood, chief of cardiovascular surgery at East Carolina University in Greenville, N.C., and a spokesman for the American College of Cardiology. Does this mean that average people are less important than presidents? Or what? Because if these procedures are "dangerous" then why would it be okay to do them on other people and risk their lives more than the lives of presidents? It worries me you know... hm. |

erhm i think it means they jus dont want to risk trying it on the president coz if it fails then well yeh
instead, their saying that average ppl's lives are not worthwhile enough so they can take such a big risk and if it fails not such a big loss uno? well good to kno hes gonna recover tho *EDIT* btw, in the topic title it sez "presidents worth more than us" but in the post u sed "average people are more important than presidents?" so yeh |
