Who is this clown Jonathan Gruber?
We know he’s got a big mouth and that he’s careless beyond belief about what he says to whom.
Gruber’s name has surfaced front and center over remarks he made regarding the Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare.

He was recorded saying in 2013 that he considered Americans too stupid to understand the complexities of the landmark health care legislation pushed forward by President Obama. Now we hear him saying in 2010 that Americans “don’t actually care that much about the uninsured.”
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi supposedly said she didn’t know about Gruber until this firestorm erupted. Then we hear from other sources that she isn’t being truthful about who she knew and when she knew him.
Good grief!
Republicans naturally are up in arms over these revelations about a former White House insider popping off as he has done. Some critics say Gruber’s big mouth gives them ammunition to finally — finally! — muster up the votes to dismantle the president’s signature legislative accomplishment.
Let’s hold on.
The ACA is working. Americans who didn’t have insurance have it now. The law has been upheld by the highest court in America. Key Republicans have joined Democrats in declaring that the ACA is going to stay on the books.
So now some clown shoots off his mouth and that turns a law that’s working into one that’s not?
I think not.
