Liar Liar Liar.
If you think back, please do, to the weeks prior to Obama launching his ill-fated healthcare fiasco. A health panel for women / cancer, and I forget the specifics although more than likely included in this blog file, recommended women cut back on the frequency of the screenings they receive. The problem with this, as the dolts on the commission didn't seem to understand, is that if women cut back, the in-between time will be when the cancer will grow and by the time of their visit, it will already be at a stage requiring major medical costs and an increased risk to the woman's life.
The commission stated that since the incidence of cancer in women was so low, it was not worth the cost to do the testing so often. Duh. The reason it was so low you dolts is because THEY GET TESTED SO OFTEN.
This was in anticipation of the Obama plan which would call for reasonable testing ... which is an odd way of suggesting cut back on the frequency, which is what Obama's health care plan would do, because the cost to the government of women getting tested so often would be tens of millions of dollars each time.
And given these facts, we hear Harry Reid say ...
Reid says Republicans want shutdown to close clinics
11:23am EDT
WASHINGTON, April 8 (Reuters) - Ratcheting up the rhetoric, U.S. Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid on Friday said Republicans want to shut down the government because they want to deny funding to women's health clinics.
"Republicans want to shut down the government because they think there's nothing more important than keeping women from getting cancer screenings. This is indefensible and everyone should be outraged," Reid said on the Senate floor.
