"This is just a handout to the mammogram industry. Don't be fooled."

Sad statement on your part. Truly sad. Thankfully the candidate you support will full back this in the end.

What I care about is women, who should not be going through the pain and anxiety of mammograms, not to mention disfiguring overtreatment, without knowing the facts.

ETA: Note that the funding would be for "breast cancer awareness", not for research into breast cancer or breast cancer treatment.


Kind of interesting that you almost piece it together.... but stop just short.

It is reassuring that you let me know that you think Klobuchar would be much better than Trump. I didn't know such a point of clarification was needed.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
