Nick Rahall Wants Answers – But He Can’t Handle the Truth
Endangered Democrat Nick Rahall is feeling the heat on Obamacare. After all, Rahall mimicked Barack Obama when he promised West Virginians that if they liked their plan they could keep it.
So now Nick Rahall “wants answers.” Which reminds us a bit of the above scene from A Few Good Men. And like Tom Cruise’s Lt. Kaffee, Rahall might not be able to handle the truth.
Because the truth is, that Rahall didn’t just vote for Obamacare, but he also voted to give the government even MORE control over health care choices when he voted for, you guessed it, the PROGRESSIVE BUDGET. That budget would require a public option, which could lead us to a single payer health care system where EVERYONE would be forced off the plan they liked and onto the government plan.
NRCC Comment: “Nick Rahall continues to lie to West Virginia voters about what he is doing in Washington. Facts are stubborn things and the fact is that when Rahall voted for the Progressive Budget, he didn’t just vote for a carbon tax, but he also voted for health care reform that would put us on a path where no one would be able to keep the plan that they liked.” – NRCC Spokesman Ian Prior
