Confirmed: Rapists and Pedophiles Will Get Subsidized Viagra Under ObamaCare

Republicans tried to block Obamacare from providing sex offenders and pedophiles from getting Viagra and other erectile dysfunction drugs. Democrats voted their amendment down. Senator Max Baucus called their amendment a

"crass political stunt aimed at making 30-second commercials, not public policy."

Now, the Congressional Research Service has confirmed Sen. Tom Coburn's assertions that sex offenders not in prison could get Viagra and other drugs treating erectile dysfunction under Obamacare.

FOX News reported:

Sen. Tom Coburn drew ridicule last month for trying in vain to prohibit sex offenders from getting Viagra prescriptions under the new health care law.

But Coburn is now having the last laugh after the Congressional Research Service confirmed his assertions that sex offenders not in prison could get Viagra and other drugs treating erectile dysfunction under health plans subsidized by taxpayer dollars.

Democrats Vote to Give Viagra to Pedophiles

I reported yesterday Republicans were introducing an health care reform reconciliation bill amendment to prevent pedophiles and sex offenders from getting Viagra and other erectile dysfunction drugs. No one is in favor of this. Right? Oops! Democrats voted down this amendment because they didn't want House Democrats to have to repeat their tough votes to takeover health care. A ruling by the Senate Parliamentarian has torpedoed that plan.

Politico reported:

Democrats killed an amendment by Republican Sen. Tom Coburn to prevent the newly created insurance exchanges from using federal money to cover Viagra and other erectile dysfunction drugs for rapists, pedophiles and other sex offenders. The amendment failed 57-42

"The vast majority of Americans don't want their taxpayer dollars paying for this kind of drug for those kind of people," Coburn said.

Democratic Sen. Max Baucus urged his colleagues to defeat the amendment.

Democrats vote to protect pedophiles, but not veterans

Democrats voted down an amendment to the Hate Crimes bill that would have stripped protection from pedophiles. Then, they voted down an amendment that would have given protection to veterans. Democrats in Congress have lost touch with mainstream America. RedState has reported:

This is really kind of mind numbing and demonstrates what is wrong with Congress.

During a House Judiciary Committee meeting, Congressman Steve King (R-IA) offered up an amendment to the hate crimes bill to exclude pedophiles from being a protected category under the hate crimes legislation.

Every single Democrat voted it down.

In the same meeting, Congressman Tom Rooney (R-FL) offered an amendment to include veterans as a class protected under the hate crimes bill. Not only did the Democrats vote it down, but Cogresswoman Debbie Waasserman Schultz attacked the Republicans for even thinking veterans might need protection under hate crimes legislation. After all, who but Democrats in Congress hate veterans?
