Washington Post Writer Fails to Fact Check Nancy Pelosi's Jonathan Gruber Denial
NewsBusters ^ | November 13, 2014 | P.J. Gladnick

The Obamacare architect that dares not speak its name. At least from the lips of Democrats who nowadays are pretending to have little or no knowledge of Jonathan Gruber. The most prominent of the Gruber denialists is House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi quoted by Washington Post reporter Sean Sullivan whose story headline also featured this denial: "I don't know who he is. He didn't help write our bill."

Gee. If Nancy Pelosi said that then it must be true! If you think me a bit too credulous for accepting Pelosi denial without checking her veracity, well that is exactly what Sullivan did. Absolutely no fact checking. Of course, in this Age of the Web, fact checking is relatively easy. No need to pound the pavement in the hot sun or extreme cold hunting down leads as in the old days. All Sean needed to do was type in some words like "Nancy Pelosi Jonathan Gruber" into Google and sift through the results. Hey, he could have even sipped on some coffee and enjoyed a jelly doughnut while performing this far from arduous task. If he had done so he would have soon found Pelosi's House Speaker website post of December 1, 2009 which was chock full of Gruber.

Natsy Piglosi should be locked up in a mental institution. She is whacked out of her gourd.

I have no doubt that by 2016 the democrats will claim Obamacare was a republican bill passed solely by republicans and the democrats did everything in there power to stop the ACA.

Obamawan: “That’s not the Johnathan Gruber you are seeking”

Princes Pelosi: “You are the only one who can save us Obamawan”

The lack of verification only proves the veracity of Gruber’s observation of the stupidity of democrat voters, so-called reporter Sean Sullivan being an obvious one.

I heard a discussion yesterday on the radio and a media watchdog said that there has not been a single news report from CBS, NBC, ABC or CNN on the Gruber videos as of noon, Wednesday

Wrong Paul and his followers have been trying to deny his early 90s talk show appearances and his Gulf War period newsletters for a couple decades now.

Denying reality is a sacrement for the social left.

Keep checking back because whatever is on her website is going to be “dissapeared”.

Mental institutions are for those who are criminally insane, a danger to themselves and others.

Perfect place for her.

What do liberal mediots and congressits do so well?

They lie 24/7/365 to Americans dumb enough to listen to them or read their lies.

The link below is the fascist Pelosi lying to America about how good ObamaCare is based on her fascist buddy, Herr Gruber’s now admitted lies.

If the super rich elite and old white rats didn’t own and control ABCNNBCBS and the NY and LA Slimes, the Compost and other fish wraps, the Rat party would have died off a long time ago.

Just another reason why the Post is a sinking ship. The only people who want to read lies/defenses like this are Democrats. The Post must be expecting a government bailout under the “too big to fail” policy. After all, they are one of the largest Democratic supporters in America.

There has be a sheeite-storm of executive orders coming. After the executive orders hit the fan, then these guys can cover their asses, by covering grubergate as old news.

so predictable... they should hire any of us as their news anchors, at, least we could give some comic relief while delivering the lines, and try to help boost their dismal ratings...

The MSM doesn’t ‘fact check’ when the truth could hurt their beloved democrats. None of the MSM is covering Gruber because they’re all in on the lies. There’s no other explanation - other than payoffs....
