Fox News liberal commentator Juan Williams thinks conservatives are making “much ado about nothing” over MIT professor Jonathan Gruber‘s controversial remarks that the Affordable Care Act passed only because of a “lack of transparency” and “the stupidity of the American voter.”
Although he understood how the comments could be “insulting,” Williams insisted that all laws require some sort of clever packaging much like how corporations market products.
When Fox News Sunday host asked Williams if he thought the Gruber comments presented “nothing new” for the Obamacare debate, the former NPR reporter replied in the affirmative: “I would say it’s much ado about nothing with Gruber, except that the critics of Obamacare are having a field day.”
Contrary to Republican talking points, he continued, “the act is working,” and the GOP should be “celebrating” how the “uninsured rate in the country has dropped by 25 percent.”
Remember when this slimeball was fired by his liberal friends and was comforted and employed by his conservative friends? Hypocritical SOB!!!!!!
Uhh.....
Again I’ll say that FOX should have left this 0bama flunky on the curb where NPR kicked him.
No, little thug, that’s the truth.
Ditto
In a way I tend to agree. His official comments which were used to craft the bill and which the CBO used to score the bill are much more significant ... and very untruthful.
He was paid to manufacture consent and that is the bigger picture here.
I heard him and some other lib idiot on the radio today spouting the same talking points.
Roger Ailes is an idiot for paying this ignoramus over a million dollars for being Black, his only apparent attribute.
Aisles needed a black male lefty!
Once you hire a black male, no way to fire him!
Worse yet, Jaun ALWAYS shouts.
He doesn’t have a normal speaking voice.
I find him loud, rude and obnoxious, in addition to ignorant.
Don't disappoint us...
You’re right!
Williams is Barry’s sockcucker.
I think you missed the double entendre.
yawn and fat bob beckel, two super lefties that invent "facts" when ever they want to "prove" their point.
Facts mean nothing to the left, 25% yahoooooo.
I bet Juan’s son begs to differ...Fox should hire him.
"Shakespeare and the Characterization of a Pompous Ass “Who knows himself a braggart, Let him fear this, for it will come to pass that every braggart shall be found an ass.” (All’s Well Than Ends Well, act 4, sc. 3)"
Juan use to have some credibility. Now he’s just the House Obamabot. Never wavers in his support for the teleprompter challenged one.
Gruber: (10/17/13) “Politically, you just literally cannot do … transparent financing, transparent spending. I mean, this bill was written in a tortured way to make sure CBO did not score the mandate as taxes. If the CBO scored the mandate as taxes, the bill dies. So it was written to do that.”
Obama: (11/16/14) “And I think it’s fair to say there was not a provision in the healthcare law that was not extensively debated and was fully transparent.”
The act is working? Exactly which of the following promises have been kept?
You can keep your insurance plan?
You can keep your doctor?
Your premiums will go down?
