Rachel Levine, a doctor dedicated to diversity and LGBTQ health who is a transgender woman, has been appointed physician general by Pennsylvania Governor-elect Tom Wolf. If chosen to serve in the governor’s cabinet, Levine, who has worked in the fields of pediatrics, psychiatry, and behavioral health for three decades, would become the highest-ranked transgender woman ever in the Pennsylvania government. Though he couldn’t say for certain, a spokesperson from Wolf’s office told Philadelphia magazine that “he believes Levine is the first transgender woman to hold the title of physician general.”
Levine is the chief of the Division of Adolescent Medicine and Eating Disorders at Pennsylvania State University, where she also works for the Office of Diversity as the liaison for LGBT Affairs. Levine is also on the board of Equality Pennsylvania, an LGBT advocacy organization.
As physician general, Levine will advise Wolf, a Democrat, on medical and public health issues.
Levine told PennLive.com that being transgender has given her a unique perspective for the position, saying she thinks “it has helped me in terms of … understanding what all the issues are [for the LGBT community]. And I think I’ve been able to serve as a mentor and role model to LGBT individuals at the medical center as well as in the community.”
Aside from Levine’s appointment, Wolf announced on Saturday appointments for secretary of human services and secretary of health, both of whom are expected to advocate for Medicaid expansion and aide in the implementation of the Affordable Care Act.
“She” or he, has to be a demodummie, no one is that ugly that isn’t a liberal.
Everyone in PA should be embarrassed.
They had to go out and find this guy, there’s gotta be only one like him!!
Government by the Deviant
Seems to be a trend these days.
If I decided that I was Napoleon Bonaparte in the body of a modern man, dressed the part, and insisted everyone address me as “Your Excellency” or refer me to “His Excellency the Emperor,” I’d soon be declared seriously delusional and committed. But if I decided a woman resided in my body, and mutilated myself to match my delusion, I’d be taken seriously, addressed as “ma’am,” referred to as “she,” and be declared completely sane. Even given a high government post.
Frankly, I don’t see much difference between the two. We’re a sick, delusional nation.
Gawd! My eyes! The ugly hurts!
PA use to be a very socially conservative state, back in the 80s.
sounds like the freak show has moved in
Just another reason to leave PA as soon as possible.
People in PA will be thrilled with this new appointment: elections have consequences, as we often say!
He just keeps shoveling the gay down our throats doesn’t he? Is there any doubt that The One is a flamer and just got married to a beard fo foster the illusion of straightness the same way he pretended to be a Christian so he could be elected POTUS? There’s no doubt in my mind. None whatsoever.
‘Couldn’t say for certain...’
Life can be tricky like that.
Does Wolf need to do an Internet search, or a strip search?
“Just another reason to leave PA as soon as possible.”
I will be gone by the end of summer!
I was bitching to a gun dealer about PA and he told me that the only good thing is that it is still a commonwealth.
A political system in which the supreme power lies in a body of citizens who can elect people to represent them......
So when the people are idiots whats so good about that..........
Let’s not be hasty! We need a Lazometer reading here.

The one on the right could pass, but the left, ugh! I saw Laverne Cox in a bathing suit, & he showed what a man with implants looks like: a chest with 2 round things shoved under the skin.

So is it a physical man with a cutoffdicktomy or a physical woman with a buildupadictomy? Things can get so confusing.
