The White Coat Makes the Doctor

|

Via Instapundit comes this New York Post account of a White House photo op featuring doctors in white coats shilling for ObamaCare:

The physicians, all invited guests, were told to bring their white lab coats to make sure that TV cameras captured the image.

But some docs apparently forgot, failing to meet the White House dress code by showing up in business suits or dresses.

So the White House rustled up white coats for them and handed them to the suited physicians who had taken seats in the sun-splashed lawn area.

All this to provide a visual counter to complaints from other doctors that pending legislation is bad news for the medical profession.

Sometimes clothes really do make the man.
