Michelle Malkin alerts readers to the fact that while the media is excited over Michelle Obama getting rid of sleeves on her clothes, she also was active in getting rid of inconvenient patients at the University of Chicago Medical Center when she was a high priced executive there - along with President Obama's senior advisor David Axelrod.
According to the an article "U. of C. shunning poor patients?" from Chicago Sun-Times there were questions raised about Michelle Obama and David Axelrod's involvement in dumping poor, black patients - will this be a factor in Obama's health care program?
Michelle Obama -- currently on unpaid leave from her $317,000-a-year job as a vice president of the prestigious hospital -- helped create the program, which aims to find neighborhood doctors for low-income people who were flooding the emergency room for basic treatment. Hospital officials say such patients hinder their ability to focus on more critically ill patients in need of specialized care, such as cancer treatment and organ transplants.
