Sue Lowden: Chickens for health care? How about cake?
Wednesday, April 14, 2010 at 21:37 It just gets better and better as Nevada’s Republican candidates stretch ever further after the Silly Putty Prize for Political Mis-speak (SPPPMS).
Republican Senatorial wannabe, beauty queen and multi-millionaress had this suggestion for Nevadans who are sucking fumes when it comes to health care and the cash to pay for it:
“…I would say go out, go ahead out and pay cash for whatever your medical needs are, and go ahead and barter with your doctor.” - Sue Lowden 4.6.10, Mesquite, Nevada
I can hear a little bitty French woman’s voice outta the past, whispering “let them eat cake.”
You know Silly Sue has made it when Jay Leno chimes in:
To say that the hugely rich former casino owner, Sue Lowden, is out of touch with her homespun Tea Bag followers is understating it.
Silly - but very rich - Sue Lowden was President of Santa Fe Hotel and Casino - which she helped run into the ground and then unloaded. She is a former Executive Vice President of Sahara Hotel and Casino. Having a Nevada gaming license, she currently serves as a Member of the Board of Directors and Secretary-Treasurer of Archon Corporation, a gaming and investment company.
Ah, a gaming license is better than a big ol’ diamond ring here in Nevada. It can go a long way to keep a girl solvent.
