ObamaCare architect mouths off yet again; cause problems for Dems

ObamaCare architect mouths off again, as videos cause problems for Dems
LINK /
The mouth that won't stop giving -- and that has Democrats and the Obama administration cringing -- has been caught shooting off yet again on video, this time bragging how the Massachusetts health care system he helped design worked by ripping off millions of dollars from the federal government.
quote:
One video, from a January 2012 forum, shows Gruber discussing the Massachusetts overhaul under then-Gov. Mitt Romney. He explained how the state was able to bilk the feds over hundreds of millions of Medicaid dollars.
"The dirty secret in Massachusetts is the feds paid for our bill, okay?" he said. "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 dollars a year."
quote:
Even though Pelosi claimed she wasn't familiar with Gruber, other Democrats have made clear they know him -- and are not happy with him.
On CNN, former White House press secretary Jay Carney said of the tapes, "It's not good" and acknowledged he helped write ObamaCare and the Massachusetts law.
Gruber is the gift that keeps on giving. I bet a lot of people in Washington wish he had an off switch right about now.

The big difference here is that he said all this over the course of about 6 years, NOT that he is suffering from diarrhea of the mouth like a Joe Biden.
Him going unnoticed for so long means that there could be all kinds of shite out there that can be uncovered.

Am I the only one who has learned to not expect any major repercussions or backlash for Democrats?
Nothing will become of this. Probably

MIT will go after him now. This is clear ethics violations of his professorship.

Well this should nip any RINO establishment thoughts in the bud of Romney running again in 2016.

All the recent revelations about how the goverment con the American people, should be enough to create a big backlash if not a revoulution, but it won't happen, the decades of brainwashing have been very effective.
