The Daily Caller ^ | November 11, 2014 | Alex Griswold

Yet another video has emerged of MIT professor and Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber calling Americans “stupid,” and bragging about how the Affordable Care Act’s drafters had to deceive the public in order to pass the law.

(snip)

“But now tonight,” Kelly reported, ” more video has surfaced showing this was not the first time Mr. Gruber called the American people stupid in an ‘off-the-cuff’ remark. In this next clip from also last year, Mr. Gruber explains how Democrats played with the language of the Obamacare law so that it achieved their goals, by again, fooling the stupid public.”

She then played a short 5-second clip of Gruber, saying the following, that a part of the Obamacare passed because “the American people are too stupid to understand the difference.”

Seems that this Gruber has made a pattern of calling American voters too stupid to know what's good for them.

The Daily Caller and Alex Griswold have been on this like a laser. Good journalism.

Americans elected Obama twice. What part of Gruber's statement is inaccurate?

Watch all the cockroaches that agreed with Gruber, perhaps made similar statements, scatter under nearby rocks. Let Gruber take the fall for statists everywhere.

I sincerely hope someone asks Obama to his face how it feels to know that his signature “achievement” was passed only due to deception and lies...I would like to see him answer that in a live press conference..

Well, I agree with this guy.

Everyone who bought the whole 0bamacare shtick was freaking stupid.

His comments are worth permanently noting.

We in the TEA Party have been shouting this for the past five years. Why are people only now catching on?

I think it's fantastic, and I hope they find more video examples (beyond this second one). It speaks directly to Democratic voters and the Left -- no conservative (that I know of) fell for the Obamacare charade, and not a single Republican voted for it.

Can’t think of many achievements of Obamas that did not involve deception.

Isn’t that what Obola is saying when he goes out there and says things like, “by every measure, the people are better off now than they were when I took office.”?

That’s what I was thinking. Well, I don’t know that I’d go along with calling a large percentage of Americans stupid. But I sure would agree that a majority of us seem to be self-absorbed and laughably gullible. That’s why they so readily accept the BS spewed by the liberals. It takes a good hard slap in the face - or wallet - to get their attention. Of course, far too often they then swallow the liberals’ line that “Oh, all those troubles you’re having? They’re the Republican’s fault, conservative’s fault.” They believe that and don’t see our problems as a result of the idiotic policies of the left that get put in place.

“Americans elected Obama twice. What part of Gruber’s statement is inaccurate? “

Exactly. Many don’t have a clue on the very basics of government and its structure and purpose.
But yet we are supposed to encourage their voting.

What say you MIT, are clowns like Gruber worthy representatives of your Institution? Sadly under their breath they are probably saying yes.
