http://pamshouseblend.com/diary/12406/rationally-discussion-about-sex-change-operations-would-look-likeRecently, I thought I addressed pretty directly how Peter LaBarbera of Americans For Truth About Homosexuality was being used as a tool of the insurance industry when he engaged in wrote about how "sex change operations" were allegedly going to be a big portion of the "Obama ->-bleeped-<--Care" plan for healthcare reform. Mr. LaBarbera continued his attacks on the "Obama ->-bleeped-<--Care" plan on Thursday -- still based on the drummed up worry that the healthcare reform will include some form of allowance for "sex change operations." This time, instead of going after me directly, or explaining the Peter LaBarbera plan for insuring 47-million uninsured Americans, he goes after the larger target of Rachel Maddow in his piece Maddow Stumbles on Obama-Care and Transsexual 'Sex-Change' Surgeries: Barber (this time we saved Mr. LaBarbera's red, white, and blue formatting):
Maddow Misinformation: MSNBC's resident lesbian activist Rachel Maddow (left) lied about Matt Barber's press statement regarding the potential of Obama-Care to become "->-bleeped-<--Care" by mandating coverage for body-disfiguring transsexual "sex change" operations.
