“Apparently Gruber decided it wasn’t enough to legislate millions of citizens out of their life-saving insurance – he felt like he should insult them as well.”

Isulting the opposition is a very typical Liberal stunt.

I guess if you don’t do drugs, drink to excess, routinely bear children out of wedlock, respect you family, respect authority, live and work in a mature and stable way, etc. that means you are ‘genetically fortunate’?? Really?

Whose that guy with the glasses that Gruber’s resting his claws on?

Is Gruber the guy the libs always quote when they claim that Obamacare is a replica of Romneycare?

Mr. Gruber certainly doesn’t look very masculine. He looks effete!

A man walks into the doctor's office
with a parrot on his shoulder.
The doctor says "What can I help you with?"
The parrot says "Can you take this ugly growth off my ass?"

No person can be as greedy as any politician when it comes to stealing citizens money via laws.

Yet another overpaid know-nothing telling the rest of us we’re greedy and stupid.

Well, Jonathan, why don’t you say what really needs to happen - these people need a gun put their heads by a representative of the government

and FORCE them to subsidize the “less fortunate”.

There are tens of millions who will believe that all kinds of honest and hard working folks are to blame for the failure of OCare.

Here’s a cute surprise in the Obamacare bill - another ‘private army’ for the President with delusions he’s a KING:

I saw yesterday where someone was blaming Fox News and Republicans for the failure of the Roll out.

It seems the very act of disagreeing with a program can cause it to fail (I wish).

Greedy bankers, greedy insurers, greedy Wall Street, it works every time even if your 9 to 5 job depends on one or more of them, but “greedy consumers”, that is you and me and my family, ain’t gonna fly in this country!

Of course I am “greedy”. I shop for the best value, whether it be a car or health insurance. At the age of sixty-five I have no need for pregnancy insurance, why would I buy it? Why would a twenty-something pay an extra 1000-2000 dollars a year to pay the medical expenses of a complete stranger. The answer to that is that he will not. If the fine is 500 dollars only the morons will sign up.
Gruber or Grubworm or whatever his name is should enroll in an introductory economics class. I am sure that M.I.T. offers it and he probably qualifies for the employee discount on the tuition.

I have seen two other "architects" of this bill interviewed on tv this week, all three of these guys are professor's at MIT, Harvard and some other college that Dr. Emmanuel teaches at. It just makes me laugh when they talk about "their product" is good, remember when BO kept saying that? "The product is good, just go onto the website and pick out a plan, we have nice plans for you to choose from..."

These pointy head holier than thou professors have not worked a day in their life in a real job and finally have created a business, the health care business and they are so excited about it, except nobody wants their product unless its free and now they are demonizing all their potential "customers" that aren't buying!

Stupid profs. They get used to saying what they jolly well please to their captive audience and don’t seem to realize the real world doesn’t work like that.

"Yes, I said if you like your plan, you keep your plan. But what I meant was":

"You dumb Americans made responsible choices to get insurance plans that fit YOUR needs....plans I consider subpar. Now, all us tolerant and compassionate Democrats are gonna screw you bigtime---you lose your coverage and your doctors because only “fairness” counts with socialist/liberals---not your miserable, greedy needs."
