“...he is free to slither off the public stage...”
Does he get to keep the millions he was paid to foist his deceit on the public?
Do those who conspired with him in his duplicity get a free pass?
Do those whose lives were ruined have any recourse against his and his minion’s treachery?
Does his and his minions’ subversion of the Constitution
get an scrutiny?
Just asking.
IMHO
“Hmmmm. Perhaps this is why last year Gruber called this lawsuityou guessed itstupid.”
And... He’s correct. Dragging him in front of Issa’s House Oversight Committee so to rake him over the coals was a form of verbal masterbation. Self gratifying, but nothing else. And, by the way Gruber was right by calling the American people stupid - at least the Democrat portion. After all, they elected Obama twice, elected a majority in both houses, passesd Obama Care without even reading it (Pelosi; “we have to pass it before we can read it.” How stupid can you get?). Gruber did Anericans a favor by putting the light of day on Obama Care. As far as I’m concerned whatever miley he was paid he should be allowed to keep. He earned it. “Stupid is as stupid does” - America.
Government bottom feeders like this guy should have their address and phone number published...
The founders gave us a LIMITED government for a reason.
Yes a grifter. These socialists are all parasites.
I’m not buying Gruber’s statement.
STUPID is when you are INFORMED of the facts, and you still don’t get it.
In this case, the public was not even ALLOWED to see what was in the bill until after it was made ‘law’.
Now that we can SEE it, we understand what is IN it. We are not stupid.
And this way of doing it doesn't even hint that maybe -- just maybe -- there might be ground under which it may incriminate him.
I don’t think the Supreme Court is going to knock out those subsidies. I think they are going to say that it would be too disruptive.
We need to bring our politcals under control. And the way to do that is with “True” campaign finance controls, of course the politicals will never pass such laws without a revolution . . . But here are my ideas anyway,
1. Only Constitutionally legal citizens of a majority age can donate to a political campaign. This means no corporations, no PACs, no unions, no 38,000 dollar a plate dinners, no trusts and no foreigners.
2. Campaign money can only come from the district represented.
3. Yearly citizen donations limited to a base amount from a base year and adjusted for inflation or deflation so that donors will see what the politicals have done to their money. Say JFK’s election year 1960 and limited to $200 from that year, that would be over $1,550 in todays money.
I’m sure a few more things can be added but remember that simple laws are the best laws, like “You shall not murder”.
“Now that we can SEE it, we understand what is IN it. We are not stupid.”

Depends on how you define stupid. Some of it is a matter of how long you have been on the Earth, some of it is the will or the lack of will to see reality rather than falling for a storyline. I never thought for one instant that the so-called Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act could possibly have anything to do with either one. Having passed the age of sixty at that time and having done my best to comprehend reality rather than believe the absurd spewings of leftist politicians, I realized that expecting the government to write a health care bill that would result in anything other than disaster is equivalent to expecting a herd of swine wallowing in a mire to somehow produce fine French pastry. You may as well look behind a horse and expect to find Mrs Smith’s apple pie rather than road apples.
The majority of Americans were NEVER fooled about 0bamcare and its potential impact on health insurance (it was never about healthcare). The only “stupid voters” in this debacle were the dhimmicraps in Congress who passed it in the dark of night, without knowledge of its actual content. They did it because they were assured by their ‘leadership’ that it would lead the way to single-payer, and the total take over of healthcare in the US by the federal gubmint.
The simple fact that these elected fools ignored their constituents is just more evidence that it’s time to clean house. Call for the Article V convention and let’s get to it.
Where were all these videos before? They released them just to rub our faces in it.
Just like PLANNED PARENTHOOD has nothing to do with planning or parenthood.
We're not stupid. We're lazy.
Everyone is so quick to talk about "their rights". Nobody ever mentions their responsibilities.
In order to protect your rights and privileges, we have a responsibility to supervise our public servants. We have a responsibility to keep up with the important issues and communicate with our servants.
We have abdicated our sovereignty by refusing to exercise our responsibilities to hold the government in check. We have let our representatives run wild and they have squandered our national wealth, alienated our allies, and shredded our constitution. We are now being held hostage by our own representatives and trying to blame them for what's happened to us.
The first step in correcting the situation is properly identifying the problem.
Obamacare is doomed to be Grubered into the dustbin of history. Four Justices will approve the subsidies. Five will rule on the plain words of the law and will be greatly offended by the scam and Gruber’s words.
Gruber was only doing what obama wanted him to do. It’s on obama and the RATS that propped it all up.
"I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education." - Thomas Jefferson
Perhaps, without even knowing it, and completely by accident, this so-called "intellectual" from academia has done his part to "inform the discretion" of "the people themselves" as to what Samuel Adams called "the artifices of false and designing men" who are, today, attempting to undermine and subvert "the liberties of our country, [and] the freedom of our civil Constitution."
Let’s have progressivism slither off stage with him.
