Hospital CEO glad to see Romney go

Beth Israel Deaconess CEO Paul Levy points to his hospital's origins in explaining why he can't wait to see Mitt Romney and his increasingly virulent anti-gay positions leave Massachusetts:

... Beth Israel Hospital was established in 1916 because of discrimination against Jewish doctors and Jewish patients. Open access was therefore a deeply held belief at that hospital, and it is a belief that persists with the new BIDMC. We welcome all ethnic, racial, religious, and cultural groups, and we do our best to treat everyone the same, i.e, as though they were members of our own family. This includes people of all sexual orientations: heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, and transgender.

This is not only a matter of social justice. It is a matter of life and death. To discriminate on any basis whatsoever is to say that some people are entitled to better care than others. We just do not accept this. ...
