Viagra for Sex Offenders
Yesterday, Senate Republicans offered 29 amendments to the health care bill that was passed by the House of Representatives. Many of these were designed to slow down the law or prevent it from being passed on a second vote in the House. At least one of these is just common sense. Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK) offered an amendment that would bar federal purchases of Viagra and other erectile dysfunction drugs for sex offenders. The senator claims that it is not only the right thing to do, but that it could also save millions of dollars.
Guess what the Democrats did with this amendment? They defeated it in a 57-42 vote. That vote shows you how hell bent they are about not letting anything get in the way of their precious takeover of health care in this country. I think it is an embarrassment before the eyes of the world that this amendment was not passed. The lives of children and innocent women are at stake.
