There are about 20-30 braindead members here who don't care that they've been screwed. They lap it up like the good little bots they are.

They might as well be saying, "If you think you are too stupid to know what you want or need, vote for us."
Gruber admits to deceiving the Congressional Budget Office to the point of knowing they would show Obamacare to be unsustainable if they were honest about it.

I wonder what the SCOTUS and CJ Roberts will think about this when they decide it's fate. Remember he cast the deciding vote for it based on it being a tax.
In reality this subsidy nonsense is just another word for people who have to pay extra taxes into Obamacare to cover all the ones that don't pay anything. Of course this does not even tough upon the agreement he made with insurance companies to cover their losses with even more taxpayer money if it does not make them money.
It seems to me a lot is riding on the peoples faith in government if this abortion of a law is not struck down.

They predicted 13 million would signup for Ocare this year and have reduced that number to 9 million.
These 9 million have about 30 days to get signed up.

Wasn't there something about a melt down if they don't get the numbers ?

So true, conservatives were down at the Golden Corral today laughing at libs trying to figure out how screwed they were with Obummercare and actually paying for their health care.when if you are smart you get it for free. .. The crowd at the Golden Corral couldn't figure out whether Medicare, Tricare, VA, or Medicaid has served them best. Its all free... Everyone was adamant that Obummercare was a total Obamaniation even though not one out of the crowd was familiar with paying monthly premiums. Thats how it is when you have been at the entitlement trough for so long.

Obama is a pathological liar, period. This is not really debatable at this point.

And we still don't know. The Federal Register is still getting pummeled with changes/additions, and the Boy King has delayed key provisions via Executive Order.

Um, Veteran's Day is tomorrow, but thanks for showing everyone what you really are.

Jonathan Gruber Obamacare Deception Video Goes Viral (Newsbusters Was First!)


Quote:
On Saturday, Newsbusters was the first major website to feature a video posted to YouTube by AmericanCommitment of Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber boasting in 2013 how he helped deceive the public via a lack of transparency about that bill.

Some readers were anxious about that video being made better known to the public since at the time the article was published, there were only a couple of dozen views of the video on YouTube.

Well they needn't have worried because since then the video has gone over the top viral to the extent that Rush Limbaugh led his show talking about it at length this morning as did Sean Hannity on his radio show.

In addition, the video made it into the mainstream media other than Fox News when Jack Tapper showed the video today on The Lead and The Hill has an article about it as well. As of this writing the video has over 177,000 views and growing fast. Reason today had an excellent analysis of the Gruber revelations:
