Oh MSNBC mentioned it this morning but before going into detail they also immediately had to compare it to a gaff made by Haley Barbour using the term "tar baby" in a comment he made about something.

At first I was somewhat hesitant about the new Congress coming up with their mantra of "repeal Omamacare" but after reading about this POS and watching news reports about this POS, I am in the tank now for repeal and starting over with a more simplistic version.


Yep, we needed this ACA in a bad way,. Long story short it would've helped us in a unfortunate time in our life's. In a well-off country like the USA, we should have a safety net for those who come under illness, but this ACA law is wrong from the start. It was presented as a lie, passed in a shady way from my little understanding of governmental processes, and isn't insuring the people it's suppose to be insuring. We're still hurting and can't afford the high deductibles the ACA best plan offers. That's with a 40% out of pocket expense too.

Start over and sit in a room and figure it out Washington. I can't believe that one party even tried to pass such an important law in such a one-sided way anyways. How not American, if ya ask me. No matter how much I migth disagree with someone, debating while finding comprise is the correct action to take. Well... unless you're dealing with someone unreasonable, then we've gotta go where we don't wanna go.....lol

An AG looking to make some good headlines would bring fraud and racketeering charges against a bunch of people involved in this legislation, including Reid and Pelosi.

Fox just dug up another clip of Gruber talking at another event where he's spewing the same shite, basically telling all the lib constituents that you're dumb but that's ok just keep voting for anything/anyone that has a "D" on the ballot.
Also have several Dims that are on board with Keystone pipeline now that there is a chance it's gonna get done. Is it any wonder why so many politicians come from the legal profession? If you're gonna frick the people make sure it's done within the confines of the law.

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) today sent a letter to Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius in reference to Jonathan Gruber’s failure to disclose his financial relationship with the Obama administration when he was testifying before the Senate Finance Committee. It appears that, at the time, Sen. Grassley was unaware Gruber had been given a lucrative, sole source contract by the HHS to do analysis of the “President’s health reform proposal.”


Senate letter to Gruber


quote:

I write concerning Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor Jonathan Gruber’s relationships with HHS. Recent reports state that Professor Gruber received nearly $400,000 from HHS in exchange for his providing assistance in evaluating Congress’s various health care reform proposals. During this same time, he was active in promoting and defending the Administration’s preferred health care policies both before Congress and in the media. This includes Dr. Gruber’s participation in the Committee’s May 12, 2009, Roundtable Discussion entitled “Financing Comprehensive Health Care Reform.” On occasions such as this one, it appears that Professor Gruber advanced the Administration’s agenda without disclosing the fact that he was receiving federal remuneration.
