Dems Condemn Coburn for Delivering Babies

Dems have the goods on gutsy anti-pork Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK). He's committed the ultimate crime (according to moonbats) — bringing babies into the world:

Coburn has come under new pressure from the Ethics panel for delivering babies at the Muskogee Regional Medical Center, which changed from a public to a private institution in April last year after it was acquired by Capella Healthcare. […] In May, Coburn received a strongly worded "final determination" memo threatening him with a Senate censure if he did not stop delivering babies for free.

According to Democrat leaders' deranged alternative to logic, Coburn shouldn't be allowed to deliver babies for free at Muskogee because it is no longer a public institution.

Too bad Coburn isn't a Democrat. Instead of delivering babies for free, he could abort them, and the Congressional leadership would start naming hospitals after him.

Pelosi pulls off the impossible, and has an Amazon AVERAGE review of 1 star for her new book. Some of the reviews are truly hilarious.

Tom Coburn is hated by Democrats and Republicans alike because he demands accountability and opposes the culture of massive spending and earmarks for political cronies. The long knives are out.

I know this is antithetical to leftists, but what Senator Coburn does on his own time as a volunteer is really his business alone, as long as he is not doing something illegal. In essence, the Dems are saying that public employees can do NOTHING in the private sector while they are public employees (if this is really their concern, that the hospital is no longer gov't funded). And we wonder why the government is so bloated.

On that note, how could they possibly object to delivering babies for free? Doesn't that help the poor, the people the Dems claim to represent? Isn't that the "caring" and "compassion" the lefties are always on about?

Filthy statists. Lying, back-stabbing leeches.

Regardless of what the Congress tries to do to him I believe we Oklahomans will send him right back at them.

Muskogee Regional Medical Center, presumably in NE Oklahoma.

Hmmm, how many of the mothers Senator Coburn has assisted with their births are "Native Americans" (to be politically correct)?

Don't Libs fret over the lower standard of living for "Native Americans"? So here is a doctor giving his services away for free and some of his patients are no doubt "Native Americans".

And they want to censure him for helping "Native Americans"? I thought Libs liked volunteerism?

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?

Liberalism IS a mental disorder.

Like so many other "groups", "Native Americans" are only useful to the Democrat Party as publicity props.

Apparently, a Republican can do no "right". Sorry for that. So Sen. Feinstein directed hundreds of millions of dollars of defense contracts to her husbands company and that is ok, no need to investigate that, but delivering babies at no cost to the parents, that's bad?
Must be because there is no money being passed around.

The Amrican indians are not a "favored minority" because they found out that the hippie movement was a crock and for the most part, they are self-reliant and distrustfull of Liberal B.S.

Plus, Liberals are offended when the indians don't live in tee-pees and talk like "Apache Chief" on a bad day (Like in the movies and on TV). Liberals see this as having "sold out to the white man".

"Too bad Coburn isn't a Democrat. Instead of delivering babies for free, he could abort them, and the Congressional leadership would start naming hospitals after him."

You nailed it Van Helsing. THIS is exactly what Coburn should be asking his cohorts point blank: "Were I performing abortions instead of assisting births would I be under the same censure?"

I dare the corrupt %$#@s to answer that one.
