Must be the Democrats in Congress, who are the ones Herr Gruber is/was calling the “Stupid Voters”. No/Zero Republicans in Congress voted for Obamacare! Now, we all knew the democrats in Congress were the Stupid Voters!

A lot of Americans and many freepers have amnesia, when it comes to this documented ObamaCare voter history in Congress!

The documented history on the ObamaCare votes in Congress. Every single democrat senator and every single democrat congressit voted to make this Obamacare the law without reading nor understanding what they voted for.

Every single Republican in Congress voted against this Obamacare.

So, the stupid rats in congress own ObamaCare as per their own expert, Herr Gruber‘s You Tube comments.

Critics: Health proposals downplay cost of care
Cape Cod Times (Hyannis, MA) - Friday, November 11, 2005

Author: ROBIN LORD

EXCERPT

But Massachusetts Institute of Technology economics professor Jonathan Gruber , who has been an outspoken proponent of the House version of the plan, said his models do not project a huge shift by employers away from their private insurance coverage. And, even if that does happen, it is not necessarily a bad thing, he said.

‘’Insurance is supposed to mean you’re not bankrupted,’’ he said. ‘’Health insurance should not cover all your spending.’’

Gruber agreed that health care costs need to be addressed, but he claimed arguing against the current reform packages on that basis is a case of ‘’perfect being the enemy of good.’’

‘’I agree these plans don’t deal with health care costs in a meaningful way, because we have no clue how to lower health care costs,’’ he said.

‘’Let’s deal with a problem we can solve.’’

Higher out-of-pocket costs could force consumers to pay more attention to the health care they are getting, and thereby lower costs overall, Gruber argued.

Consumers will avoid the health care they do not need, he said.

The fact Gruber keeps using the term “stupid” IMO is more revealing than most people think.

Gruber is educated and you can tell from the way he speaks he believes he’s smarter than everyone else.

He wouldn’t use the word “stupid” if he actually meant “ignorant” or he would make himself look ignorant for not knowing the difference.

He specifically used the word “stupid” not “ignorant” to describe the people the lies were aimed at.

IMO he is not referring to people that were too ignorant to know they were being lied to but people that knew they were being lied to but just too stupid to care.

If it’s as I believe and the lies were targeted to people that knew they were being lied to and just too stupid to care then the lies were also targeted to people that knew they were being lied to and they did care.

The lies were intended to divide the American people and create some kind of confrontation, preferably violent, between the two sides.

We’re seeing the exact same technique with the Saintly Gentle Giant right now.

Sounds like “community organizing” 101.
