Boxer Plays The Penis Pill Card To Support Abortion Funding (video)

Senator Barbara Boxer equated taking Viagra with having an abortion in a bizarre twist of logic yesterday. Boxer was speaking against Sen. Ben Nelson’s (D-NE) amendment to prohibit federal funds from being used for abortion.



From the video:
BOXER: There’s nothing in this amendment that says if a man some days wants to buy Viagra, for example, that his pharmaceutical coverage cannot cover it, that he has to buy a rider. I wouldn’t support that. And they shouldn’t support going after a woman using her own private funds for her reproductive health care. Is it fair to say to a man you’re going to have to buy a rider to buy Viagra and this will be public information that could be accessed? No, I don’t support that. I support a man’s privacy, just as I support a woman’s privacy.


This comment really got the liberals stirred up over at Think Progress.
"Conservatives don’t need Viagra. We have beautiful, sexy women."
