Get both bills to deny viagra to child molestors! Whats the big deal? Don't you think you could get Democrats to vote for it? What pitiful excuses. Why pretend its just too much trouble not to fund viagra for child molestors? Why it would take forever ... Please. Do you think its a good and moral thing to give viagra to child molestors?

A Senate Roll Call Vote for a 30-second Ad Posted by Dan Perrin (Profile) Thursday, April 8th at 7:07AM EDT This 30 second television commercial writes itself: the Congressional Research Service confirms ObamaCare allows rapists and sex offenders to get federally subsidized Viagra. Here is the U.S. Senate Roll Call vote on Amendment Number 3556, an amendment by Senator Coburn (R-OK) to prohibit the federally subsidized Viagra for rapists and sex offenders, which failed by a vote of 57-42. The vote is on the Motion to Table, which means to “set aside.” So a YEA vote, is a vote to set the Coburn Viagra amendment aside — i.e. to kill it. Every Dem Senator voted to kill the amendment, except for retiring Sen. Bayh (D-IN). Without further ado, here is the roll call: YEAs —57 Akaka (D-HI) Baucus (D-MT) Begich (D-AK) Bennet (D-CO) Bingaman (D-NM) Boxer (D-CA) Brown (D-OH) Burris (D-IL) Byrd (D-WV) Cantwell (D-WA) Cardin (D-MD) Carper (D-DE) Casey (D-PA) Conrad (D-ND) Dodd (D-CT) Dorgan (D-ND) Durbin (D-IL) Feingold (D-WI) Feinstein (D-CA) Franken (D-MN) Gillibrand (D-NY) Hagan (D-NC) Harkin (D-IA) Inouye (D-HI) Johnson (D-SD) Kaufman (D-DE) Kerry (D-MA) Klobuchar (D-MN) Kohl (D-WI) Landrieu (D-LA) Lautenberg (D-NJ) Leahy (D-VT) Levin (D-MI) Lieberman (ID-CT) Lincoln (D-AR) McCaskill (D-MO) Menendez (D-NJ) Merkley (D-OR) Mikulski (D-MD) Murray (D-WA) Nelson (D-FL) Pryor (D-AR) Reed (D-RI) Reid (D-NV) Rockefeller (D-WV) Sanders (I-VT) Schumer (D-NY) Shaheen (D-NH) Specter (D-PA) Stabenow (D-MI) Tester (D-MT) Udall (D-CO) Udall (D-NM) Warner (D-VA) Webb (D-VA) Whitehouse (D-RI) Wyden (D-OR) NAYs —42 Alexander (R-TN) Barrasso (R-WY) Bayh (D-IN) Bennett (R-UT) Bond (R-MO) Brown (R-MA) Brownback (R-KS) Bunning (R-KY) Burr (R-NC) Chambliss (R-GA) Coburn (R-OK) Cochran (R-MS) Collins (R-ME) Corker (R-TN) Cornyn (R-TX) Crapo (R-ID) DeMint (R-SC) Ensign (R-NV) Enzi (R-WY) Graham (R-SC) Grassley (R-IA) Gregg (R-NH) Hatch (R-UT) Hutchison (R-TX) Inhofe (R-OK) Johanns (R-NE) Kyl (R-AZ) LeMieux (R-FL) Lugar (R-IN) McCain (R-AZ) McConnell (R-KY) Murkowski (R-AK) Nelson (D-NE) Risch (R-ID) Roberts (R-KS) Sessions (R-AL) Shelby (R-AL) Snowe (R-ME) Thune (R-SD) Vitter (R-LA) Voinovich (R-OH) Wicker (R-MS) Not Voting - 1 Isakson (R-GA) redstate.com Let it be noted that Senator Nelson, still smarting from the Cornhusker Kickback, voted for sanity.
