Sen. Mitch “Moscow Mitch” McConnell: Today’s “Big Pharma Ass-Kisser” Award Winner

 

This isn’t the first Award presented to Mitch. In the past, he has been the recipient of twenty (12) Awards in various categories and/or the subject of one (1) opinion piece. Those awards and opinion piece are listed at the end of this article and can be viewed by going to the listed categories.

 

FYI: Mitch is yet another loser lawyer who learned early on how difficult it would be to earn a dishonest living practicing law after graduating from the University of Kentucky School of Law in 1967. This led him to go into the second most honest profession (used car salesman No. 1), politics.

 

It should be noted that Mitch had his significant snout firmly implanted in the public trough for the past fifty (50) years.  Apparently, no self-respecting law firm in the greater Louisville area was about to offer Mitch a good paying job.

 

After applying a heavy dose of Industrial Strength Boudreaux’s Butt Paste provided at no cost by Big Pharma to his derriere for self-protection, Moscow Mitch stated he would not allow a Senate vote on a House bill that would require the federal government to negotiate lower prices for some drugs covered by Medicare.

 

Moscow Mitch also is unwilling to hold a vote on a separate bipartisan bill that was sponsored by fellow Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa that would have limited price increases drug companies typically make every year. (Jessie Hellman)

 

To hold a position that Medicare should be prohibited from negotiating with Big Pharma in purchasing drugs is facially absurd. The Veterans Administration, another federal agency has and continues to negotiate prices when purchasing drugs for America’s veterans.

 

I’m sure that Moscow Mitch would support allowing Medicare to negotiate with the makers of Viagra and Cialis to assure that he and his fellow congressional comrades are able to enjoy future organisms.
