Demoting Dr. Phil to Mr. Phil

Dr. Phil appearing on Laura Ingraham said, we don’t shut the country down for automobile deaths, cigarette related deaths, and swimming pool deaths.

He claims that we have 360,000 swimming pool deaths per year. The actual number of swimming pool or spa related deaths according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is 390 deaths a year on average.

There are only two things you need to know about Mr. Dr. Phil

1. He's not a Medical Doctor. He received his PhD in clinical psychology from the University of North Texas. 2. He does not have a licensed to practice in ANY STATE!

A simple google search provided me with this info.


Leading Causes of Death

Data for the U.S.

Number of deaths for leading causes of death
  • Heart disease: 647,457
  • Cancer: 599,108
  • Accidents (unintentional injuries): 169,936
  • Chronic lower respiratory diseases: 160,201
  • Stroke (cerebrovascular diseases): 146,383
  • Alzheimer’s disease: 121,404
  • Diabetes: 83,564
  • Influenza and pneumonia: 55,672
  • Nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and nephrosis: 50,633
  • Intentional self-harm (suicide): 47,173

It would appear that Mr Phil needs a few refresher courses, because he apparently is not aware that automobile deaths, cigarette related deaths, and swimming pool deaths are not contagious.

Seriously though, how can anyone really takes this guy serious about anything?

Stay safe and find something better to watch than this guy or Laura Ingraham.
