Video: Senate Finance Committee Markup Descends Into 'Your Mom' Joke

As the Senate Finance Committee debated an amendment to its health care bill proposed by Sen. John Kyl (R-Ariz.) Friday afternoon, Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.) decided to keep it real. Kyl was trying to strike language defining what benefits insurers must offer. Stabenow argued that basic maternity care should be covered.

"I don't need maternity care," Kyl said, after Stabenow had given him back the floor.

But Stabenow immediately interrupted: "I think your mom probably did."
