The Dems insult the disabled for the second time this year

remember when President Obama said he bowled like a member of the special olympics

now the dems have put the word RETARDED in their health care bill……

http://www.nypost.com/seven/07262009/news/nationalnews/retarded_house_bill_181448.htm

The proposed health-insurance bill from the House of Representatives refers to mentally disabled people as “retarded” — a term advocates, relatives and physicians find outdated and offensive.
The bill refers to: “A hospital or a nursing facility or intermediate-care facility for the mentally retarded . . .”
The phrase could cause more problems with groups for the developmentally disabled, who were angered when President Obama referred to his poor bowling skills on “The Tonight Show” as “like the Special Olympics.” Obama later apologized.

nice huh

those darn fine compassionate democrats are at your service America
