Rand Paul not budging on Obamacare overhaul
by Robert King | Sep 25, 2017, 11:24 AM

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., is still opposed to the Republican plan to reform federal healthcare policy, even after it was revamped late Sunday to entice GOP holdouts.

A spokesperson for Paul's office confirmed Monday he is still a "no" after reviewing the latest version of a healthcare bill from Sens. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., and Bill Cassidy, R-La. Paul has been a staunch opponent of the legislation, which senators say is their last chance to repeal Obamacare, because it leaves in far too much of the law's taxes.

The legislation cuts Obamacare funding and gives it to states in the form of block grants. It also cuts Medicaid funding overall through a per capita system that gives states funding based on the number of Medicaid beneficiaries.

Good.  Repeal is what they promised.  Repeal is what they need to deliver.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Here lies in honored glory an American soldier, known but to God

THE ESTABLISHMENT IS THE PROBLEM...NOT THE SOLUTION

Republicans Don't Need A Back Bench...They Need a BACKBONE!

An "Obamacare overhaul" is exactly what this bill represents.  Not repeal.  It can't be said enough.... that there is a huge difference between the two.  The voters were promised what is needed.... repeal first.  Only after repeal, can they address the replace.  Anything else is just attempted patching and fixing what can't be fixed.  It's clear that Graham, being an establishment RINO, wants to retain federal government control as much as possible... which his bill does via "block grants" and other stipulations and regulations on the states re: how they deal with healthcare.
No quarter given to the enemy within...ever.

You can vote your way into socialism, but you have to shoot your way out of it.
