1. You won't catch a Republican (female) Congresscritter doing that.

Anything for party unity I guess, even if it kills them.

2. I am sorry but I just have to disagree with Debbie

Why is it that we are oh so concerned about breast cancer and not say prostrate cancer? Prostrate cancer is just as testable and yet more deadlier than breast cancer but some reason we keep pumping billions and billions of dollars into this one cancer. And on birth control, why again is society paying for women's contraception when u have much pressing problems in front of us? I know it can sometimes be pricey but let her(and her partner) figure this out. This is sexism disguised as humanitarianism.

I worked in a nursing home a few years back and I noticed a trend. Men come in on average at a much younger age, beat up and generally in worse shape than women. They end up living a shorter life at a poorer quality of living than the women. As a human being, I see this problems that I think it should be address by our society but nobody does.

We have to help people in need period.
