With a government shutdown over the issue of Obamacare and its abortion funding occupying most of the political debate, Democratic Senate leader Harry Reid put his foot in his mouth in a big way today.
The House is set to vote today on H.J. Res. 73, the Research for Lifesaving Cures Act, which ensures funding for the National Institutes of Health during the government shutdown over the Obamacare debate, but Reid said Senate Democrats aren’t interested in the House Republican bill.
IN a CNN interview, Reid responded:
CNN: “If you can help one child who has cancer, why wouldn’t you do it?”
Sen. Reid: “Why would we want to do that?”
