Stupid Gruber Faces House Oversight Ctte (Live Thread 9:30 ET)
C-SPAN 3 ^ | December 9, 2014 | C-SPAN

Posted on 12/09/2014 6:15:01 AM PST by NautiNurse

"Voters are stupid" economist Jonathan Gruber and Marilyn Tavenner face Issa and the House Oversight & Government Reform Committee today on C-SPAN 3.

FOX News reports that Tavenner has asked that she be seated anywhere but next to Gruber. Apparently, Gruber is radioactive. Time will tell whether this affliction is covered under Obamacare.

Gruber is saying he has made all these comments about people being stupid and factoring in politics to feel smarter than everyone else in his own arrogance. He wanted to sound impressive to others. Gowdy is backing him into the wall.

Gowdy establishing Gruber’s political affiliation
Now today you are saying you are not a politician

It has to be more than a mistake
What did you mean when you wish you could be transparent but you wanted the law.

It was written in a tortured way -

Gruber evades both questions

Gowdy - the trend is - stupid quotes
Your defense is that you are not a politician

Gruber makes a comment about trying to be smarter

Gowdy: when did you realize these comments were inappropriate?

Was it just the morning before you went on MSNBC?

Gruber - didn’t remember making them (comments)

Gowdy - you don’t remember

Gowdy - it looks like you thought your comments were funny and then it took a while to apologize

Are you apologizing because you said it or because you meant it?

Gowdy: tends to undercut you were sorry for any of it

Issa - when you made these comments, did anyone say your comments were inappropriate?

Response, but couldn’t hear it

Gowdy tells Gruber he made the comments so many times it is hard to believe he is really sorry. Gruber looks perplexed.
