Mark Levin: There is something horribly immoral about RINOcare
Conservative Review ^ | March 09, 2017 | By: Chris Pandolfo

Posted on 03/09/2017 10:35:57 PM PST by TBP

Thursday on the radio, Conservative Review Editor-in-Chief Mark Levin gave the rundown on the press conference of Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wisc. (F, 51%), in which Ryan tried to give the hard sell to Americans on the Republican American Health Care Act "reform" plan.

Levin called Ryan’s proposal “repeal in name only." Or, if you will, “RINOcare,” because the GOP plan keeps the core of Obamacare in place.

Levin had a “number of questions” for the speaker, questions that so far remain unanswered.

“Now, here’s my question Mr. Ryan,” Levin said. “How much will the average American’s deduction go up, or down?”

Further, Levin asked, how much will the federal government be spending on subsidies for certain individuals? Will individuals be able to see the doctors they want? The specialists they need? Will individuals be able to go to the hospital of their choice? Will they be able to get the medicines they need to get?

At the end of the day, the problem with RINOcare, Levin explained, is it embraces the Left’s assumption that government involvement is needed to make health insurance affordable. It embraces progressivism; it embraces centralization.

“Republicans have blown it,” Levin said. "There is something horribly immoral about RINOcare."

I don’t know who he supported, or if he supported anyone at all; it makes no difference for this particular subject at this particular time.

What anyone thinks of Mark or Rush or Sean or Glen or whomever doesn’t amount to a hill of beans, as they say.

Why don’t you address the issue at hand?

I will, but not under the idiot levin. He's proved that his loyalty lies somewhere other than ours.

We really need to do something about McCain. I just don’t know what. He’s not up for reelection anytime soon.

How do we get a Senator removed from office?

Good to know. Thanks. If everybody were like him, it'd be "President Clinton."

Thanks for nothing, levin.

He endorsed Cruz in the primaries, then Trump in the general election.

So, by definition, not a NeverTrumper.

If you're going to shill for Levin, at least do it with a modicum of honesty. You seem to post an awful lot from Conservative Review, trying to get them clicks? You also seem partial to headlines with the name Levin in them. Since you're obviously a levin fan, maybe you can answer a question: Levin did not feel it necessary to inform his beloved audience about the firing of Mark Steyn?

Here's some info, correcting you re Levin never being never trump ...

Talk radio host Mark Levin, who has endorsed Republican presidential candidate Texas Senator Ted Cruz, declared, “I am not voting for Donald Trump. Period” and “count me as never Trump” on Friday.

Are you from Arizona?

"It may be noted that in Arizona, the state law allows a candidate for United States Senator or Representative in Congress to sign a “pledge” to resign from office if he or she loses a recall election under state recall procedures. If the candidate signs the pledge or files an alternative statement that he or she will not be bound by a recall, such statement is given by the secretary of state “to the public press when made.” Notwithstanding such pledge, a legal action to enforce a promise to voluntarily resign elective federal office may prove problematic, although a refusal to honor such promise could obviously have significant political impact for an elected official.

Levin was so wedded to his strict interpretation that he refused to see the bigger picture until it was almost too late. That time is gone but your disdain is clouding today’s bigger picture by at least not listening and judging the content of what he is saying today, and I am not saying agreeing, on this matter as well as the spygate thingy. I don’t propose putting him on any sort of pillar but just to consider and judge his comments for the issue at hand.

There is something in it and we do agree that the Ryan crap is just that so if there is someone screaming out loud in the wilderness to counter it, at least let it be heard, no matter the messenger.

My take on the Ryan bamboozle is this healthcare bill is nothing more than a distraction which Bitch Mitch exposed yesterday in saying the tax cuts won’t happen this year. By Ryan and the establishment knowing that HC has to come first before and TC bill because of the taxing implication in it, they are using HC just to keep from addressing TC.

Knowing this piece of crap HC bill would never fly, they have assured both HC and TC won’t happen and they can issue a major defeat to Trump and in essence keep the plug firmly seated and locked in the drain hole of the swamp.

The issue very simply is republicans negotiating a deal. They can come up with something or they can’t. Trump will sign it if they can reach a deal.

No, not from Arizona. But, I certainly would be happy to support any recall effort.

Doesn’t matter if Levin is 100% right, he's still a dickweed. pure dickweed.

Yes, a total dickweed. . .but you are also making a very important point: there is constructive criticism of Trump motivated by a desire to see Trump "winning" and America win. . .and then there is critics, like Levin, that are looking for any excuse to roll Trump into the dustbin and roll out Cruz in 2020.

Trump has shown a total willingness to be influenced by genuine critics of this healthcare boondoggle. . because in the end, Trump is about winning for America. . .Levin is about whining.

I have one question, too.

Is it mandatory?

Because if it’s mandatory, it’s garbage that people must be forced to have.

Trump CANNOT backpedal on repealing that monstrosity.... it HAS to happen.

You can’t tell me there isn’t a better plan.... for sure they’ve had more than enough time to work it out ... and the ACA is so ill-conceived and badly written that it actually begs for repeal
