Typical Democrat – The truth is not important

A Democrat said this weekend that Jack Kemp died because Republicans didn’t fund cancer research (link)…a notion that may be widely held, but is completely wrong.

During Republican control of Congress, federal spending on health research and regulation increased 46% after inflation, from $49 billion a year to $72 billion a year, or about 7% increase each year.  That’s almost the same rate of increase as Defense spending got in the same period (48%), when we actually had a real war on our hands, and not a political contrivance for excusing federal spending.

This outrageous statement was made by the newest Democrat, Arlen Specter. Good. Now the Democrats have to explain this self-serving loon.
