A Mystery

Here's something that has me completely bolloxed. I learned today that:

Medicare is paying “grossly excessive” amounts for vacuum erection systems, informally known as penis pumps, which are generally used by men who fail to cure their erectile dysfunction problem with drugs such as Viagra.

via Talking Points Memo

This actually has me bolloxed on two fronts. First, I thought that penis pumps were fictional devices that only existed in spam emails. This truly is an age of miracles and wonders.

But my bolloxment on that front, on a scale of 1 to 10, is a mere 1, while it is a full 10 on another front.

Read the quote again. Our tax dollars are going to pay for devices that serve only one purpose. As Mike Huckabee should be saying: “These men are helpless without Uncle Sugar coming in and providing for them a prescription for penis pumps because they cannot control their libido or their reproductive system without the help of government.”

The thing is I'm sure that Huckabee is saying such things, and I'm sure that the entire right is similarly outraged about taxpayer dollars being shelled out in massive amounts just so men can-not to put too fine a point on it-fuck. Not only that, these are men who are directly opposing the will of god, since if he wanted them to “stand to” as the Bard put it, He would have stiffened their resolve, so to speak, quite naturally.

The thing is, I'm sure the right is incensed about these sex crazed men who are trying to frustrate god's will. Why is the liberal media refusing to cover their complaints about this shameful and immoral waste of taxpayer dollars? It's a mystery, for sure.
