We should have spent more on cancer research and a whole lot less on the queer disease over the last 3 decades.

I thought aids was the number one most important disease ever. And I thought cancer only matters if it threatens the boobie

Just curious. What has happened to all of the trillions of dollars spent so far?
The survival rate has increased but the treatments haven’t changed much over the decades and trillions of dollars — chemo and radiation.

That's a blast from the past.
I wonder if she'll be back for Hillary's cabinet?

Obama is laying claim to the cure of cancer as his legacy since everything else he did has turned into monkey poop.
So now when/if someone discovers a cure for cancer 30 or 50 years from now the Libtards will give Obama credit.

Mr. Obama pledged in the speech to initiate a government wide push to cure the disease along the lines of the effort in the 1960s to send a man to the moon. The president made no specific promises but urged Americans to believe that a cure could be found. What exactly does he think cancer researchers have been doing for decades now?

What exactly does he think cancer researchers have been doing for decades now? Playing pinochle.
And what will happen if I don't believe "a cure can be found"? Who will it hurt?

If I were cynical, I’d say that this is complete BS that Obama and everyone else knows will never happen. But Obama and his stooges in the press, like the NYT, are so desperate to build up his legacy that they will play up this “Cancer Moonshot” (I wonder how much time they spent thinking this one up) as if its a real, substantial, Kennedy-like project of national importance. As if this Socialist dope is going to set in motion a cure for cancer by throwing 20 or 30 more billion into his last budget.
