Mika Admits: If Gruber Were Republican, MSM 'Would Be Exploding'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 11/12/2014 6:01:37 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Kudos to Mika Brzezinski for admitting the truth: if Jonathan Gruber were a Republican, the MSM "would be exploding." Instead, noted Mika on today's Morning Joe, the MSM has been silent on the Gruber story, with only conservative sites [ed.: notably including Newsbusters] covering it.

Mika contrasted the current quietness on the MSM-Gruber front with the media "firestorm" that erupted when David Stockman made his infamous statements about the Reagan admin's alleged lack of understanding of budget numbers.

Careful, Mika. Opening your eyes can be addictive.

Classic example of the blind squirrel/broken clock phenomenon. However, kudos to Mike for being honest on this one.

Of course the LSM is not covering it. The stupid voters are the Rats’ base.

In the spring of 2013, I’d sit down and spend fifteen minutes watching the Mika/Joe show. I have to admit...a third of what she says....is correct and good analysis. But the show is so slanted that you grow tired of the thing after a while. In this case, she’s right.

Gruber’s hit maximum turbo and returning the ground rather fast.

"But this time, the LIAR is a Democrat who supported our scheme."

"At the foundation of our civil liberties lies
the principle that denies to government officials
an exceptional position before the law and which
subjects them to the same rules of conduct
that are commands to the citizen."

Justice Louis D. Brandeis

Last night on The Kelly File, South Carolina Congressman Trey Gowdy made an appearance to address comments made by Obamacare architect and MIT professor Jonathan Gruber in 2013 about the deliberate “tortuous” language used to mislead “stupid” Americans about the healthcare overhaul in order to get it through Congress.

“I can’t get past the irony to get to the arrogance. The most transparent administration since the continent shifted had to rely on artifice and deception to pass its signature piece of legislation, you can’t make that up. He had to lie to people and then he justified it so I can’t even get past the irony of that to get to the arrogance of him calling our fellow Americans stupid,” Gowdy said. “I would say to the professor... you want to see how stupid the American citizens are take a look at last Tuesday night because they rejected you, this bill and this administration.”

“He just proved that he is willing to lie. He’s willing to lie because he has the arrogance of thinking that he knows what is best for this country and the citizens and voters do not, so keep that in mind the next time anybody tries to sell you on a big piece of legislation by calling this comprehensive,” Gowdy continued, adding that he’d like to see someone from the administration apologize for what Gruber said. “They lied, they got away with it and they got the bill that they wanted.”

Exactly what I was thinking. One honest look at reality can lead to another, and another. Ask Kristin Powers. She’s trying to remain a Democrat because her job depends on it.
