Angle: Reid helped child molesters get Viagra
By CRISTINA SILVA (AP) – 16 hours ago

LAS VEGAS — In the ugliest ad so far in Nevada's contentious Senate race, Republican Sharron Angle accuses Democrat Harry Reid of helping to put Viagra in the hands of child molesters. The TV spot is the latest in a string of scare-tactic ads flooding the Nevada airwaves in the final weeks of the dead-heat contest.

"Want to know just how out of touch Harry Reid is?" the female announcer says at the beginning of the latest ad. "Spending $787 billion on a stimulus that failed is a start. Or Reid voting to give illegal aliens special tax breaks and Social Security benefits is another big clue. But here's the kicker: Reid actually voted to use taxpayer dollars to pay for Viagra for convicted child molesters and sex offenders."

The vote refers to the federal health care law.

Before it passed, Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., proposed an amendment barring federal expenditures for supplying Viagra and other erectile dysfunction drugs to sex offenders. Democrats called it a political stunt aimed at killing the legislation. The amendment died.

The health care law does not single out convicted sex offenders.

Angle's campaign defended the ad. "Harry Reid was so intent on passing ObamaCare that he was even willing to give Viagra to child molesters to do it," campaign spokesman Jerry Stacy said.

3. Politics as entertainment.

a reality freak show.

4. Have you noticed when they can't find anything radical to

drum beat against the Democrats they try SEX. I suppose all republicans have sex on their mind constantly and they think other people do also. There's a big wide world out there and you don't always need sex to occupy your mind all the time.

5. She suffers from irritable verbal flatulence

Not a pretty sight.

6. Yet she gives child molesters a pass on rape because it's God's will

Because she's a Christian and believes it's God's will that the pregnant rapee carry her rapist's child to term.

7. Why, is he fronting a prescription for Rush Limbaugh or something?
