6 Reasons Jonathan Gruber Definitely Wrote Obamacare
Daily Caller ^ | 12/11/14 | Patrick Howley

Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber claimed on Capitol Hill this week that he did not write whole parts of Obamacare. Nonsense.

Wyoming Rep. Cynthia Lummis grilled Gruber at Tuesday’s House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing. Lummis brought up past statements Gruber made identifying himself as a co-writer of Obamacare and saying that he wrote entire sections of it. Gruber denied his prime writing role and stonewalled on key questions about his participation in designing the law. (RELATED: Gruber Lawyers Up)

The Jonathan Gruber of the Oversight hearing was contrite, bumbling, and glibly apologetic — just a doddering little academic that got himself caught up in big, bad Washington politics.

But Jonathan Gruber was, indeed, the “brains” behind the key parts of Obamacare. He was the Aaron Sorkin to this legislative “Newsroom,” the Mario Puzo to this “Godfather Part III,” the Ringo Starr to this Ringo Starr solo album. Here’s how we know:

This morning on the Bennett program I heard a recording of him in one of his classes boasting of his heavy involvement and that he "helped write the legislation."

Plain English-- going to be hard to spin.

Hope Gruber has a very lonely cellmate that is longing for love when he gets to prison. #wishfulthinking

Maybe it’s time to ask Mr. Romney what he thinks about Der Gruber. Mitt’s been awfully quiet about that topic. If he’s going to run again, he needs to have a plan on how to address this matter so it doesn’t stick to him.

Was anyone paid more than he was for creating Obamacare?

Masta Romney only ruined one State’s healthcare system at the behest of his overwhelmingly liberal Massachusetts voters. Gruber is perfect for liberals and what he said about them is true - stoopid.

Let’s never forget, the whole scheme was burped out of the HERITAGE FOUNDATION! Smart, smart people like Gruber, Obammy and Mittens live there.
