Angle says Reid gave Viagra to child molesters
LAS VEGAS — Republican Sharron Angle claims Democrat Harry Reid gave Viagra to convicted child molesters in the ugliest ad yet in Nevada’s contentious U.S. Senate race.
In the TV spot, Angle alleges that the federal health care bill that Reid voted for allows convicted child molesters and sex offenders to use taxpayer dollars to pay for Viagra.
The ad asks, “What else could you ever need to know about Harry Reid?”
The health care law does not single out child molesters.
Reid and many other Democrats, however, did shoot down a Republican effort to kill the bill by introducing an amendment to block the sale of Viagra to sexual predators.
In other ads, Reid has said Angle supports sending jobs overseas and Angle has called Reid an ally of illegal immigrants.
