Worse than watching the old CBS water-carrier pontificate about being snookered (against the backdrop of him selling this insufferable BS for four years) is the old ideological coot, Bob Schieffer, being too entrenched in his own elite liberalism to recognize that Gruber wasn’t disparaging the deception needed to pass ObamaCare – HE WAS BRAGGING ABOUT IT.
Idiot.
Bob Schieffer takes to the airwaves to proclaim he is just “dumbstruck” that Jonathan Gruber would be making such statements about how they constructed the law to deceive the American electorate.

Imagine for a moment U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron delivering a speech at a U.S. university, while attending a global summit in the U.S. hosted by President Obama.
Imagine Mr. Cameron taking to the stage of the university and orating how the current administration holds no value toward the founding fathers of the U.S. Constitution.
Further imagine how it would be received if Mr. Cameron’s guest speech was about how nationalized socialistic healthcare, specifically ObamaCare, was corrosive and destructive to the foundational principles of our Republic.  Or if how Obama’s refusal to allow the Keystone pipeline was indicative of his communistic tendencies.

If that were ever to happen the professional left, and the U.S. administration, would be apoplectic with anger at the arrogance of such an undiplomatic and uncouth display.  It’s easy to imagine Chris Matthews shouting about how such an event would be ill-mannered and intentionally embarrassing the President.
However, that level of imaginary arrogance wasn’t imaginary this past weekend.  That is exactly what President Obama did while attending the G20 Summit in Brisbane Australia. (more…)

The important aspect to this Buzzfeed story is not Über rising to say how wonderful ObamaCare is for their business model.  The important aspect is revealing, yet again, the insufferable biases within media outlets.
Against an avalanche of newly fueled Gruber ObamaCare sunlight, the far-left moonbats are trying to find ways to point out the glory of ObamaCare despite the fact it was constructed around lies and falsehoods.   In essence, and as typical, ‘the ends justify the means’.
Into this need steps the media enterprise Buzzfeed.  A quasi-journalistic source of social media and current event information which passes itself off as ‘journalism’.   Buzzfeed starts off with this paragraph:

The CEO of Uber said Friday that Obamacare has played a crucial role for his army of drivers, an unusual, partial endorsement of the president’s signature policy from a man often cast as a hero of anti-government libertarianism.

The rest of the article is explaining how.
Wow, a company benefitting from ObamaCare and willing to take a policy and strategic media approach to announce as such…… Or is there something missing.  (more…)

WESTMINSTER — An unruly public hearing on a proposal to prohibit the sale of tobacco products came to a sudden and rowdy halt Wednesday evening after shouting and clapping opponents of the ban repeatedly refused the chairwoman’s request to come to order.

The ban, proposed by the Board of Health in this Central Massachusetts town, would be the first of its kind in the state. It has led to angry reactions from residents who worry that it will hurt the local economy and allow government too much discretion in controlling private conduct.
“This is about freedom; it’s my body and it’s my choice to smoke,” said Nate Johnson, 32, a Westminster farmer and auto body worker. He was puffing on a cigarette at a rally before the hearing where opponents held signs saying “It’s not about tobacco — it’s about control” and “Smoke ’em if you got them.” (more…)

James O’Keefe introduced the world to this type of mentality during his exceptional sting of NPR, the Praetorian Guard of media, in 2011 – Story Here.  William Tucker wrote a great article as a follow-up and describes the personality traits accurately:

(American Spectator) James O’Keefe’s NPR sting has to be one of the most beautifully orchestrated deceptions in the annals of journalism. I think the academy award for performance in a documentary should go to that bushy-bearded “Arab” who, on hearing NPR executive Richard Schiller say, “Let me take off my NPR hat” and launching into his Tea Party rant, intones in a marvelously phony North African accent, “I like it when you take off your NPR hat.” That was the laugh line of the year.

We pointed out in Gruber video #4 how, according to his own admissions, Jonathan Gruber met with Senator Obama in 2006 -and then again with President Obama in 2009- in the Oval Office, to construct the tax scheme within the ObamaCare insurance fraud.
However, what’s missing amid the new discussion created by the recent Gruber revelations is a contrast, or context, to the historical ‘candidate Obama’ Campaign commercials.
So again, just to insure the hammer head meets the nail watch these short (30 second) 2008 campaign commercials which specifically focused on taxation of healthcare premiums:

Yeah, apparently Congress is well, not too terribly concerned about the missing AUMF.   Either that, or, well, they were quite comfortable relying on Hank “Tippy Guam” Johnson to ask all of the insightful questions….

If you were to review the participation at today’s House Armed Services Committee for the testimony and Q&A of Defense Secretary Hagel or Joint Chief’s Martin Dempsey, you might walk away thinking our military were not in combat in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and dealing with Ebola in West Africa.  Russia invading Ukraine, Iran getting nuclear weapons, Libya in a state of civil war, U.S. Embassy evacuated in Yemen, terrorists on the border…..
…Yeah, three effen’ hours of their time is just too much to ask for.  Oh, but they’ll parade around the military like some kind of optical pawn of patriotism.  And, yet people wonder why events like Benghazi and operation zero footprint are possible.  Seriously.

During a June 13th 2012 PBS interview with Frontline Jonathan Gruber explains with great and specific detail how the entire construct of ObamaCare came into being.  Full Video and Transcript HERE (while it lasts).
Within the interview he is asked questions about meeting with President Obama.  Gruber discusses meeting with Obama in 2006 as a senator, and then meeting with Obama in the oval office as President when they brainstormed the “Cadillac Tax” and came up with the way to fool people about taxing for healthcare.  There’s no longer a way the White House can try to distance themselves from Gruber.

Here’s an excerpt of the transcript.  The interviewer is PBS producer Michael Kirk:
So were you ever in a room with Obama?

Yes, twice.

Tell me. Take me there. (more…)
