The United States government should not provide Viagra to sex offenders. That should be a very easy statement to agree with, even for Democrats who strongly favor the far-left Obama agenda. But thanks to Senator Tom Coburn (R-Oklahoma), Senate Democrats may have to publicly vote against an amendment to health care legislation entitled "No Erectile Dysfunction Drugs To Sex Offenders."
