Okay, so what is the truth about this bill that the Kenyan Commie signed?
The whole deal is a nasty bit of self-serving cronyism and the usual DC carousel of lawyers moving from an agency to lobbying. Marino is merely the latest example & it will just keep turning.
The only thing we need from a drug czar is somebody who will criminally prosecute any doctor that prescribes opioids for chronic pain in excess of 30 days...unless the patient is determined to be terminally ill and due to die within 12 months.
No greater service could be done for the nation in this post.
Why do we still have czars?
Move Sessions to Drug Czar and get a more aggressive AG.
A man is known by his enemies ... Rep. Marino must be the right man for the job.
Who needs czars, anyway.
We knew the swamp was bad. But c’mon. Maybe “Nuke the Sewer” would be more appropriate for DC. “Health reform” has been a farce all along. Everybody’s been trying to do it without ending obscene profits and practices which benefit insurance, pharmaceutical, and medical service paymasters.
The opioid problem is real enough but the government’s power to control is also a problem but there is worse.
I always saw Congressman Marino as a Ryan supporting RINO.
The fact that 95 percent plus of the rank and file Republican members of the House consistently supported corrupt Boehner Ryan leadership proves their hearts.
I don’t care if Marino endorsed Trump, because his earlier endorsements of corrupt leadership speak louder.
Corrupt Democrat and Republican “moderates” always put business interests first which is what the media is saying about Marino and his pharma industry friendly legislation.
Of course the media is in the business of helping D’s but I’m not going to shed any tears over the turn of events.
The swamp is really, really corrupt and Trump needs outsiders like Roy Moore at his back, not the folks who supported Paul Ryan or Mitch McConnell as their leaders in Congress.
“60 Minutes and the Washington Post have killed the Marino nomination to be Drug Czar.”
Some of my friends say I sometimes that I reflexively back Trump no matter what he does. In this case, I think he did the completely wrong thing. I fear he wimped out by pulling this nomination in the face of a media barrage. If so, it will just whet his opponents appetite to use a tactic that seems to work on him. He’s showing weakness, a mistake for someone as hated as he is. He has a thin skin, always has, and it makes him manipulatable. He talks a lot about loyalty, but showed none to the Congressman he just threw under the bus. At least he has his House seat to go back to.
After watching that Hit Piece the other night, I don’t think there’s any other way for President Trump to go. :(
I almost fell off the couch when they actually uttered the names, ‘Barrack Hussein 0bama’ and, ‘Eric Holder,’ though!
As someone that has lost a Nephew to heroin, and a husband and Stepson to this opioid nightmare, all I can say is:
Is there really ANY reason to trust Mother Government?
Not really seeing it in my life.
