Jonathan Gruber, the man at the center of Obamacare’s troubled public image, apologized to Congress for “glib” and “thoughtless” comments about the stupidity of the American voters and how the health overhaul passed, arguing he is no political expert and shouldn’t have posed as one in speeches around the country.
“It’s never appropriate to try to make oneself seem more important or smarter by demeaning others. I knew better. I know better. I’m embarrassed, and I’m sorry,” Mr. Gruber, an economics professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, told the House oversight committee chaired by Rep. Darrell Issa, California Republican.

A few years later Gruber decides to make a few truthful statements about the dishonesty of the politicians and the Obamacare mess. He is attacked. The people who blindly repeated what he said say that they never heard of him.
Democrats get the message. Never, ever tell the truth about anything.
His comments weren’t glib, they were assured and confident AND HE KNEW HIS AUDIENCE WOULD AGREE!. He KNEW.
The things that illegal forced government insurance brings rob Peter to pay Paul.
Crocodile tears that will be lapped up by the adoring media, the ruling Leftists and the collaborators in the GOP.
Gruber is a shining example in the sky of how shallow the intellectual abilities of our lib “leaders” are.
In the world of physics and math, we call Grubers “English majors”. (No insult intended to the many English majors who could teach us all a thing or three.)
What saddens me is that this semi-cretin was one of the libtard’s best shots.
And the repulsicans still cannot mount a decent counter argument.
Better!! ;-)
“It’s never appropriate to try to make oneself seem more important or smarter by demeaning others.”
There wouldn’t be a leftist left in America if they actually believed that.
I know. Not good enough, if the GOP lets it stop there. People have had their entire lives upheaved for the sake of this mountain of lies.
He is only sorry that his statement came back to bite him. To socialists/liberals the ends justify the means.
I am going to be pizzed if not one R on the panel quotes that. I’m probably going to be pizzed.
End Sarc thingie.
Of course they lied. The ends justified the means.
And their supporters agree with that.
They won’t full on admit that lying is OK to pass “good” laws,
but they aren’t going to withdraw their support, either.
"I said they were stupid before I said I wish I hadn't said they were stupid."
“Oh that’s okay. Just go out and be a good boy from here on out...”
This jackass belongs in prison.
During a Fox commercial break from the coverage I flipped to CNN, and MSNBC; both were talking about athletes wearing "I can't breathe" tee shirts.
