Why are some people politicizing this thread?

Why are some people politicizing this thread?

Just a guess, but I think because this is FreeRepublic, and there are some here who are unable to see any event except through their political lens.

On a staunchly prolife site, such as this, breast cancer = abortion = culture of death = liberal politics.

Again, just guessing.

[EveningStar]

I know. My question was rhetorical.

This points out the desirability of doing breast cancer screenings at an early age.

Under ObamaCare guidelines, breast cancer screening for women under 50 would have been denied coverage.

Very sad.

It is surprising that she is the first to die out of that sampling of people (Survivor contestants). They must indeed be a hearty bunch.

9 years, 19 seasons, they have at least one geezer over 50 each time, actuary figures would say at least a couple should be gone by now.

Survivor 1's Rudy Boesch is 82, Today! (Thank you Wikipedia!)
