I’ve been getting a lot of google traffic lately from this particular phrase:

“hillary clinton nurse overpaid”

On first thought you would think I would welcome this traffic, because it might suggest that people are interested in a nurse blogger’s view of politics.

Unfortunately, this isn’t the case, at all.

The most likely scenario is that someone out there heard that Hillary Clinton had uttered the phrase, “nurses are overpaid and undereducated.” and they are trying to somehow to validate this with a reference. Well, I’m here to tell you that you are not going to find it on this blog, and I don’t think you are going to find an accurate reference anywhere on the Internet, including snopes. If you really are desperate to find a source for this, you’re going to have to do a Lexis Nexis search, because the rumor is that it was said sometime around 1992, before the Internet has bloomed into the enormous melting pot of facts, rants, rumors, and opinions that it is today.

Here’s an idea: Instead of investing your time trying to find a source for this unlikely phrase, why not participate in a discussion about what each candidate has in the works for health care reform?

Hillary Clinton says this.

Barack Obama says he’s going to do this.

and John McCain is planning on doing this.

Which plan do you think could actually work?
