The Idiocy of Tom Coburn (OK)

Moments With Tom "Moonbat" Coburn
Submitted by Oliver Willis on Mon, 02/07/2005 - 10:49am.
Starting out our new feature, chronicling the crazy Republican senator from Oklahoma:

Sen. Tom Coburn (R-OK), a new member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, was at last week's meeting on a bill restricting class-action suits. "You know," he said, "I immediately thought about slicone breast implants and the legal wrangling and the class-action suits off that. And I thought I would just share with you what science says today about slicone breast implants. If you have them, you're healthier than if you don't. That is what the ultimate science shows...In fact, there's no science that shows that silicone breast implants are detrimental and, in fact, they make you healthier."

More sage medical advice from Republican doctor-senators.

Isn't Coburn the fella that performed the involuntary sterilization?

Edit: Yep. Medicaid fraud involved, too.

Medicine man
The future of GOP control of the Senate depends on Oklahoma Republican candidate Tom Coburn, a former doctor who has covered up a scandal from his past until now.
