Outspoken former FOX News host Bill O’Reilly gave a harsh assessment of Republicans in Congress who have failed to keep their seven-year long campaign promise to repeal Obamacare.
Interviewed on Glenn Beck‘s radio program on Friday, where he has been being interviewed weekly recently, O’Reilly said that the “pinheads” in Congress are more concerned about their “gym time” than they are about repealing Obamacare.
“Obamacare legislation is an income redistribution scheme, and that’s what it is,” O’Reilly told Beck. “Taking money out of the pockets of working Americans, anybody making more than $75K, and putting it into the pockets of people who don’t have a lot.

I mean, it’s outrageous,” a disgusted O’Reilly explained.

Republicans hold advantages in the House of Representative, the U.S. Senate, and the presidency. They deceptively voted over 50 times during the Obama years to repeal Obamacare, knowing full well that Obama would veto any bill that would touch his signature legislation. Now that America has a president who would sign a repeal, they are showing their true colors.
