Dr. Drew is the best doctor on the planet

[threadysparrow]

well he goes on tv everytime a celebrity does something because the people have such a HUGE misunderstanding of what the reality is and he is not doing this for himself he is doing this because we, as a society, need to understand. and who better to explain it than a man who we all admire?

@eqsmooth They can if you're able to comprehend the meanings of words in the English language.

[eqsmooth]

@eqsmooth Do you talk to people, or are you living in a wet basement? Sarcasm and hyperbole cannot be interpreted in an e mail, text, you tube comment or tweeting, you little twat. Only an intellectual midget would not properly indicate he was trying to be "funny" with some sort of overused characters such as a god damn wink. ;)

@eqsmooth Buy a dictionary. Look up the words "hyperbole" and "sarcasm."

[eqsmooth]

@iampoopman Your logic is about as sound as Sarah Palin's. He is a physician special in mental, emotional and addictive disorders, not a primary care physician. Gary Busey has all three disorders. He didn't do heart surgery on Busey. Ya dolt!

[iampoopman]

@eqsmooth Besides the fact I was speaking in hyperbole, Dr. Drew does have a degree in medicine and is a practicing physician. And had Gary Busey as a patient, and is thus THE BEST DOCTOR ON THE PLANET :O

[eqsmooth]

@iampoopma That is just so lame. He is a CELEBRITY who also has a degree in Psychiatry. A celebrity first, doctor second. Get it? He is really good at maintaining his image: the hair, the voice, the focus, the glasses, the personal attire and grooming. It is all designed to maintain his image so that you think he is the greatest doctor the planet. How many doctors do you know who go to the Grammy Awards? He is just a celebrity w/an opinion. You've been fooled just like all the Dr. Oz followers.

Dr House is the best doctor on the planet

Republican's Sandford & Engign are still in office as is David Vitter. An editor of the WSJ said this, to Ken Auletta, "if a conservative politician is caught in adultery we will defend him. Life isn't fair but that's the way it is". This was pre-Murdoch and post Clinton. Imagine what it's like now... with the above named still in office we don't have to imagine. Spitzer was caught b/c he forced AIG CEO Greenberg to resign in 2005 for fraud. The only major financial CEO to do so.

It's great to educate the public. But FYI, it's unethical for a psychiatrist to speak publicly about anyone--especially a celebrity--who that psychiatrist hasn't personally evaluated, and never OK to do so without the person's permission. PLUS Dr. Drew is an internist and addictionologist, NOT a psychiatrist. Unfortunately, Dr. Saltz IS a psychiatrist and a member of the American Psychiatric Association. The APA's Code of Ethics specifically prohibits her from making such statements.
