On Generic Drugs and Health Care Savings

This Coburn nonsense is exactly why I have become a very very luke warm conservative Republican. Blunder after blunder over the past nine plus years have caused me untoward days of embarrassment over the stupid actions and public statements from the party I once cherished. What in the hell is the point of Coburn’s action? What could possibly be his motivation? What can be gained from it? It casts the Republican Party as anti-education, anti-open inquiry and anti-intellectual. How can such a strategy win friends and public support. But I suppose that a party that would nominate George W. Bush as President has already clearly signaled that they do not value education and would prefer to limit learning and shut off avenues of intellectual inquiry. — Comment at [i]The Chronical of Higner Education[/i] Regarding Sen.
