In October of 2006 Oklahoma's esteemed junior Senator, Tom Coburn, placed a hold on a bill that would have provided funding to breast cancer research. The only physician (a bajingo doctor) in the Senate, it was odd that Coburn would hold a bill that would have passed overwhelmingly and would have benefited medical research (in a field in which he practiced) from going to a vote during "Breast Cancer Awareness" month. It was a wildly unpopular move with more than the electorate.
Today, on NewsOK.com, it was reported that Senator Coburn had surgery to have a cancerous tumor removed. It seems karma has put Dr. Coburn on notice.
