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: - See more at: http://newsbusters.org/blogs/pj-gladnick/2014/11/10/jonathan-gruber-obamacare-deception-video-goes-viral-newsbusters-was#sthash.igGZZSxT.dpuf

The U.of Penn has pulled this video to cover something up.
MIT should fire Gruber for lying to the American public.

Heard it on Rush, today. It’s getting plenty of exposure.
What a jack@ss. We have been totally played. But, a lot of us knew that from the git-go...
The tide, she has a turned! Red! Everywhere I look! :)

MIT should fire Gruber for lying to the American public. MIT is usually better than that. I hope they will do the right thing. Just as good, this liar is no scientist; it would be appropriate for him to collect his 30 pieces of silver and quit his MIT job.

The Dems are going to throw this clown under the bus. He’ll be teaching econ classes at a high school after his professional and personal reputations get destroyed.

AHEC 2013 Conference Thanks go to Ray76 for sitting through 51 minutes of that crap to find more mendacious remarks about 0bamaCare.
Gruber begins his remarks at around 14:30. His comments regarding transparency and tortuousness are at about 20:30. He makes a comment about a time bomb of costs rising to 17% of income at 23:15. Snarky comment about putting prozac in the water at 28:06.
Video is still rolling. Ill post the times if anything juicy comes along.

They expect it to cost 17% of your income.

They pulled it and re-posted it today. The new link is in post #9. It’s the same length so I don’t know what if anything was edited.

He’s basically saying to the American people, “We %#^+Ed you!”
I hope everyone of them that lied or mislead the American people gets a flesh eating virus.

Doubtful. Commie rats need their functionaries to keep pushing for the cuase. As the cuase of destroying America and rebuilding her in the commie rat image cannot ever be furthered through honest means it is essential to keep lying, cheating, stealing, etc. If the low level scum realize they can be punished they may no longer participate in the cause, at least not to the bold degree they do now. This is why rats always circle the wagon around their fellow travelers no matter what they have done.

Here is Jonathan Gruber, who got $400K as an Obamacare architect, contradicting himself on the Halbig (subsidies for ObamaCare enrollees) decision.
It begins with a clip of him lying on the Chris Matthews show Hardball.
Next there are clips with Gruber lecturing, this time using the truth, at a conference.

The MIT professor’s words:
“Look, I wish Mark was right that we could make it all transparent, but Id rather have this law than not.”
This is what tyranny sounds like.

MIT is now no different than Harvard. Another school using it’s history to push liberal agendas.
Obviously the people there aren’t as smart as they think they are to do that.

HOORAY newsbusters!
The LIE is the weapon used most often by the criminal/progressive/socialist/totalitarian/anti-truth SCUMBAG. An ace-of-spades in one of the multiple decks of domestic enemies cards.
ESAD Gruber.
