“The dirty secret in Massachusetts is the feds pay for our bill,” Gruber said in a Jan. 18, 2012, video. “In Massachusetts, we had a very powerful senator you may know named Ted Kennedy. Ted Kennedy ... and smart people in Massachusetts had basically figured out a way to sort of rip off the feds for about $400 million a year.”

Do it for Teddy!

Gaffes... because all horrendous mistakes made by Lefties are mistakes... unintentional... they are misunderstood. They are all good people, innocent like Bambi, and the only times things like this happen are when evil folks on the Right set them up and smear them and attack them for their gender or skin color or just out of evil hate.

Obamacare architect---the preening disdainful Jonathan Gruber---the MIT brainiac caught on video admitting the law’s “lack of transparency” was meant to dupe a gullible American public — could end up becoming Obamacare’s demolition man, with congressional Republicans threatening to hold hearings and experts saying his bombshell comments could impact the Supreme Court case challenging the Affordable Care Act.

“Congress can subpoena Gruber and call him to testify about the way he used federal money because he got an awful lot of it,” said Dennis Hale, a Boston College political science professor, referring to reports yesterday that Gruber received hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal grants to help states implement Obamacare.

“If he shows up to testify, it’s going to be pretty ugly.”

This self-appointed genius is being paid MILLIONS by individual state exchanges and the federal government….and then he can’t keep from bragging about how brilliant he, Kennedy, Kerry and Obama were in hoodwinking the stupid American taxpayers…while being taped!!! Any two-bit scammer should have known better than that, but ego exceeds IQ.

Grubering is not Gaffing.

Gaffing is slip of the tongue

Grubering is letting the cat out of the bag, aka spillin’ the beans

Jonathan Gruber, the Bay State ‘brainiac’ responsible for BOTH RomneyCare and ObamaCare is ‘gaffless’...not gaffs but intentional comments. All of this should be more than enough to shoot down any chance for another Romney run for the White Hut. Pay attention, Pubbies...we do not want Romney! Nor do we want any other RINO as a candidate. Are you listening GOPe? Time for a Cruz-ifiction!

MESSAGE TO CONGRESS: NO MORE FEDERAL TAX DOLLARS TO MIT UNTIL GRUBER GOES

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology is a $2 billion non-profit corporation. The Institute’s revenue includes tuition and gifts, as well as a significant amount of funding from external research sponsors, including the federal government, industrial sponsors and foundations. .

The research enterprise can be characterized by a “cradle to grave” process. This process begins with a concept or idea that is turned into a proposal, followed by an award, the performance of the project, and several other steps that ultimately lead to the closeout process. Understanding the entire process will help you to become a more effective research administrator.

The Principal Investigator (PI) has overall responsibility for the technical and fiscal management of a sponsored project, including the management of the project within funding limitations, and assuring that the sponsor will be notified when significant conditions related to the project status change. While responsibility for the day to day management of project finances may be delegated to administrative or other staff, accountability for compliance with MIT policy and sponsor requirements ultimately rests with the PI.--snip--

My very first thought. Gaffes are errors - what he said and still keeps saying in these videos are the truth. Much, much different. He should be disappeared.

Congress, as usual, is going to f*** this up by holding hearing about Gruber’s payments (which Congress authorized and he earned) or about his comments about the stupidity of voters (look at the White House, QED).

The ONLY things that should be put on the record, and done so HUNDREDS of times if necessary, are Gruber’s confession that the subsidies were for state exchanges only (the record is clear) AND his intercourse with Pelosi and her flying monkeys indicating CLEAR AND UNAMBIGUOUS legislative intent.

The pleadings before the Supreme Court in March 2015 had better include both of these things, or there’s a chance that Roberts will wriggle out of overturning the subsidies.

“They can subpoena him and call him to testify about the way he used federal money because he got an awful lot of it,”

His testimony could open a can of worms in regard to how the other billions with a "B" dollars were spent for promotion. DHS has no clue where the money went. Maybe Goober does.

Anyone else notice that Mitt Romney is nowhere to be found lately to comment on a previous employees recent statements concerning a the American citizen and a national health care based on the very same one Gruber help him to bankrupt Massachusetts with?

Hmmmmmmm?

A prog/lib/lefty/commy/Dem speaking truth is always a gaffe.

This is sickening to every moral, reasoning, law abiding American citizen.

Time to use Rules for Radicals in spades against these anti-American cretins.
