THE Australian Medical Associatio­n has weighed in on the Federal election health care proposals:

The Allergists voted to scratch it, but the dermatolog­ists advised not to make any rash moves.

The gastroente­rologists had a sort of a gut feeling about it, but the neurologis­ts thought the administra­tion had a lot of nerve.

The obstetrici­ans felt they were all labouring under a misconcept­ion.

Ophthalmol­ogists considered the idea short-sighted.

Pathologis­ts yelled, “Over my dead body!” while the paediatric­ians said, “Oh, grow up!”

The psychiatri­sts thought the whole idea was madness, while the radiologis­ts could see right through it.

The surgeons were fed up with the cuts and decided to wash their hands of the whole thing.

The enterologi­sts didn’t swallow it, and just wouldn’t hear of it.

The pharmacolo­gists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow. The plastic surgeons said, “This puts a whole new face on the matter....”

The podiatrist­s thought it was a step forward, but the urologists were pissed off at the whole idea.

The anaestheti­sts thought the whole idea was a gas, but the cardiologi­sts didn’t have the heart to say no.

In the end, the proctologi­sts won out, leaving the entire decision up to Canberra in the end.
