Thursday during CNN’s LGBTQ issues town hall for the 2020 Democratic presidential candidates, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) said she was wrong about a previous statement she made during her 2012 campaign for U.S. Senate calling gender-reassignment surgery for inmates not a “good use of taxpayer dollars.”
In her revised view, Warren called the operation “important and appropriate” when posed the question by CNN host Chris Cuomo.
CUOMO: In the 2012 campaign for Senate, you criticized a judge’s ruling that granted transition-related surgery to a transgender inmate. You said, “I don’t think it’s a good use of taxpayer dollars.”
CUOMO: Do you regret that?
WARREN: Yep. No, it was a bad answer. And I think it was a bad answer. And I believe that everyone is entitled to medical care and medical care that they need, and that includes people who are transgender, who — it is the time for them to have gender-affirming surgery. I just think that’s important and the appropriate medical care.

Perhaps we should consider making it mandatory. Just a thought.
When Obama suggested a woman’s mother could “take a pill” rather than receive a pacemaker to more wisely spend healthcare dollars. But spending vast sums to maim the troubled is a good investment.
When she says, “entitled” does that mean she wants to give it to all of them, whether they ask for it or not? Now, that’s a radical idea!
Lizzie should just keep on talking. I fully support free speech, especially for the maniac element on the other side of the political spectrum.
Inmates forfeit any “entitlements”. Now if Gray Beaver wants to pay for them out of her own pocket,,,,,
Now that just might work as a deterrent...
If all those badass thugs knew they would go to prison as he’s and come out as she’s, maybe they would commit fewer crimes???
I like it.
Classroom project. Go to youtube and get learned up on gender reassignment surgery.
First, do no harm.
It applies more to Politicians than it does Doctors.
Just wondering.
Wow! The more she talks, the loonier she sounds.
I agree with warren. Convicted rapists and pedos should be reassigned to neutered.
This nut job truly intrigues me
How she morphed from fairly normal upbringing except for dads early death and problems from that ...the economic loss
She morphed from that to a rabid socialist with FOUR COLLEGE TENURES.....THATS RIGHT.....FOUR
and a progressive democrat who at times gives off a Stalinist vibe
It’s curious
Is it all just pandering
I don’t think so.
When did society get so messed up that?
Not on my dime. She’s more than welcome to spend her own money on them.
You have got to be kidding me.
We can’t castrate multiple conviction pedophile rapist, but we have to castrate men who want to be castrated. Not to mention that this castration will be very convoluted and expensive castration. With unnecessary hormonal therapy.
How does that make sense?
The whole thing is theft of public funds to finance elective surgery.
If this becomes public practice we will have wannabee transsexuals committing felonies so that they can have trans surgery on the taxpayers dime.
This lady is a clear and present danger to our Christian way of life. Maybe her and the rest of her libturd colleagues ought to move to China. They’d fit right in.
Yeah...they used to call this stuff..a circus
But there is no Hippocratic Oath for politicians.
If, out of regret, the inmates want to reverse the change, are they entitled to that as well? And later, if they want a re-do, entitled again? Suppose they want to surgically change their ethnicity, as warren did but without surgery?
