Liberal Civil War Continues: Howard Dean Calls Obamacare Architects Elitist
Townhall.com ^ | 11/12/2014 | Katie Pavlich

Within 24 hours of the 2014 midterm election results pouring in, handing the Senate over to Republicans, outgoing Majority Leader Harry Reid unleashed his chief-of-staff to the Washington Post where he slammed the Obama White House for the Democrat bloodbath.

Now, after comments from Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber surfaced showing the administration lied to "stupid" Americans in order to get the legislation passed, former Democrat Presidential candidate and DNC Chairman Howard Dean is calling the architects of the law "elitist" who don't "fundamentally understand Americans."

"The problem is not that he said it. The problem is that he thinks it. The core problem under the damn law is it was put together by a bunch of elitists two don’t fundamentally understand the American people. That’s what the problem is," Dean said in response to Gruber's comments on MSNBC's Morning Joe.

It should be noted that when Dean talks about Gruber not "fundamentally understanding Americans," he's referring to those in his far-left base who want single-payer healthcare. Regardless, the civil war and the sniping within the Democrat party continues.

Conservatives have civil wars, because they fight over principles. Liberals have purges, because they fight over who can best advance the agenda. In 2008 it was Obama, today it isn’t, and they have to go through the purge to decide who it is.

Not like Howard Dean, who does understand the American people.

Especially the ones locked up in psych wards across our wonderful country.

That's pretty funny.

During the 2012 primary, my wife was surfing the news and I heard her say "Oh no... Al Sharpton is running in the Democratic primary."

I thought for a moment, then said "Good. I hope he does well. In fact, I hope he wins the nomination."

She thought for a moment and then smiled. "Yeah!" she said.

They are paternalistic just as much as they are elitist.They think that they know what is best for Americans, just like all libtards, even if Americans don't want it.

Liberals have purges when someone exposes their agenda for the electorate to see.

For democrats, knowing your voters are morons is one thing, your voters knowing you think they’re morons is a whole different ball game.

Exceedingly few of them are “locked up” these days.

Remember In Breaking Bad the scene where Walter says "This is not Meth"? Where he blows up a wall? They used the Dean Scream.
