A few moments ago Harry Reid addressed the Senate, objecting to the defunding of Planned Parenthood. In his objection he stated there were many women in his family and he wanted to preserve funding for Planned Parenthood to insure they would have access to things like cancer screening.
But here's the irony - and the dishonesty...it was Harry Reid who helped force through ObamaCare, which is supposed to assure all Americans access to things like cancer screening, anyway. Is Sir Harry now trying to tell us that ObamaCare will NOT insure us, and provide access to medical care as promised? Or is he simply using this as an excuse to block a bill to fund the government, and preserve taxpayer funding of abortion?
Reid has already stated unequivically that ObamaCare will cover us, so the only other explanation for his pathetic ploy is to preserve public funding of abortion.
Harry Reid is a dangerous and real threat to this country, as he allows his own quest for power to get in the way of what is best for the country. That is the highest form of political corruption.
Our leaders should at least be honest. If Harry Reid wants to preserve funding for Planned Parenthood because he believes the taxpayer should fund the killing of the unborn, then he should have the courage of his convictions to stand up and SAY so. But if his convictions are something to be ashamed of, then perhaps he should change his convictions to something he can instead be proud of.
In any case, Sir Harry, just once I would like for you to be honest. Don't hide behind bogus excuses like "cancer screenings" when, in fact, women can get cancer screenings anywhere - and nowhere in the Constitution does anyone have the right to force someone else (the taxpayer) to pay for another persons' medical tests.
If the people of Nevada had an ounce of sense or honor, they never would have elected this pathetic excuse of a man. And if the Democrat Senate had an ounce of integrity, they would vote him out of the leadership position - he is making partisan clowns of them all.
Haven't ANY of them asked WHY the voters so overwhelmingly elected Republican in the last election?
