New York Buys Viagra for Rapists
Convicted rapists and other high-risk sex offenders in New York are getting Viagra paid by Medicaid, according to state Comptroller Alan Hevesi, who has asked the federal health secretary to stop the practice.
Meanwhile our elderly choose between meds and food…
The Bull has this to say, which he backs up with an anecdotal personal account:
Meanwhile, America’s Veterans - with no other care but the Dept. of Veterans Affairs - can’t get it at all! … So, America’s Veterans are of a lower priority that convicted sex offenders. I wish I could say I am surprised, but I’m not.
The Urban grind is outraged too, but from a different perspective.
Now maybe I’m missing something, but if a person is so poor as to be on Medicaid, shouldn’t something like erectile dysfunction be the least of their worries? But then again, liberals are experts at inventing rights — in this case, the right to whore around.
Lawrence Auster gets on his soapbox with this:
That’s the way liberalism works. It takes us so far into sickness and evil that people can only react to the latest, most extreme stage of the sickness and evil, thus implicitly normalizing all the stages leading up to it. Anything less sick than the sickest thing anyone has ever heard of, is ok.
Dave Lucas observes this, but thinks there is yet a crazier story. Click through to see it.
It gets crazier by the New York Minute!
Rob at Say Anything:
…the massive prescription drug entitlement President Bush pushed through congress and signed into law has tax payers doling out dollars for Viagra as well.
