Barbara Comstock voted against funding for breast cancer research because she didn't want money going to Planned Parenthood because they were accused of selling body parts. The claim had been debunked by the Washington Post weeks earlier, but was still being touted by Marcia Blackburn and Fox News the day of the vote.
Representative Comstock also re-tweeted junk she got from Marcia Blackburn's Twitter feed on health care costs which were given a “Pants on Fire,” ratings by politifact.
As a matter of fact, Ms. Comstock got three of those ratings in her first 90 days in office, which may be a record.
Remember when she said our next Senate should approve the next Supreme Court Justice, a statement that ignores the Constitution?
Do we deserve a Rep who gives Marcia Blackburn, who graduated college with a degree in Home EC, and who doesn't believe in climate change or evolution, credence on scientific matters and national social policy? That being said, a credible defense for Barbara is anyone who pals around with Sean Hannity does naturally become dumber by the minute.
Shame on her.
