Abstract
HORSTMAN: Mr. President, why did you block the reimportation of safer and inexpensive drugs from Canada which would have cut 40 to 60 percent off of the cost?BUSH: I haven't yet. Just want to make sure they’re safe. When a drug comes in from Canada, I want to make sure it cures you and doesn't kill you.KERRY: John, you heard the president just say that he thought he might try to be for it. Four years ago, right here in this forum, he was asked the same question: Can't people be able to import drugs from Canada? You know what he said? “I think that makes sense. I think that's a good idea” -- four years ago. Now, the president said, “I’m not blocking that.” Ladies and gentlemen, the president just didn't level with you right now again. He did block it, because we passed it in the United States Senate. We sent it over to the House, that you could import drugs.
