Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R) was criticized by Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R) and South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley (R) for “hiding behind Jesus to expand Medicaid” according to a report in The Atlantic.
The two Republican governors confronted Kasich at a donor forum hosted by the Koch brothers in Palm Springs.
A source at the event told The Atlantic, “It got heated.”
Kasich was the fifth Republican governor to accept Medicaid expansion through Obamacare. Kasich has previously cited his “personal faith” as a motivator for choosing to expand Medicaid in Ohio, putting him at odds with most Republicans who strongly oppose Obamacare and Medicaid expansion through the law.
Citing God is something Kasich has done numerous times. Recently, the Ohio governor said he’s waiting for a sign from God on whether he should run for president.
“My family is a consideration,” the Ohio governor told NBC. “Number two, the most important thing is, what does the Lord want me to do with my life?”
What are the chances God tells Kasich his role in life is changing tires down at the local Firestone store?
And the Lord said to me: “Thou shalt form a Super PAC…”
I knew this circus wasn’t going to dissapoint,popcorn down here in row 1,
Well, Satan was attending as a special guest of the Koch’s.
Why do Jindal and Haley hate Jesus so much? Is Jindal a hidden Hindu? Is Haley a secret Sikh? I’m not saying they are. I’m just saying someone might ask those questions.
