A community hospital in Batesville, Miss., has gone to the unusual lengths of posting a building-size banner on the side of its structure to thank Massachusetts voters for their choice in the recent election to replace the late Sen. Ted Kennedy.
The message is simple: “Thank You Massachusetts!”
It stems from the gratitude local health care providers feel for the votes that sent Republican Scott Brown to the U.S. Senate instead of a Democrat hand-picked by Kennedy supporters who would have continued to support President Obama’s nationalization plan for health care.
The health takeover plan was a campaign issue in the race, and Brown specifically said he wanted to be the vote that would kill the plan, dubbed “Obamacare” by critics.
Tri-Lakes Medical Center
Dr. Mike Haven is the CEO of the Tri-Lakes Medical Center, which was taken over financially by a team of local doctors just last year after a previous management company let it slide into bankruptcy.
“I bought the banner and displayed it after the Massachusetts election,” Haven told WND. “Mainly because it personally just gave me a … restored confidence in America.”
