Who's Stupid Now?

November 12th, 2014 10:47 pm

"This bill was written in a tortured way to make sure the Congressional Budget Office did not score the mandate as taxes. If CBO scored the mandate as taxes, the bill dies. Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage and basically, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically, that was really, really critical to getting this thing (Obamacare) to pass.” Jonathan Gruber, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, economist

          Hey, Gruber! Who you calling stupid?

          Are you talking about our forefathers, the men and women, farmers and merchants who defeated the British army, fighting without shoes, food and warm clothing? The ones who fought for your freedom to say the things you say?

          The people who were willing to put their money where their mouths were?

          Oh, I’m sorry. Maybe you meant the stupid Americans who brought down Nazi Germany, or the ones who stormed the beaches at Normandy?

          Or maybe you were thinking of the men and women who fought in Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Iraq and Afghanistan.

          Oh, that’s right. You people in the Ivory Tower don’t like war. You don’t even like America much. In fact, you can usually be found rooting for the other side.

          Here’s a flash, Gruber. The American people, rank and file, everyday people, were smart enough to figure out what a tyrannical king was doing and got rid of him. Do you really think they’re too stupid to figure out who you and people like you are?

          You’re the guys who teach in universities. Grown men, preening and strutting your liberal stuff in front of a captive audience, young kids who don’t know any better, who eat up whatever you have to say.

          You’re the guys who are smarter and cooler than anyone they’ve ever met, or at least that’s what you tell them. You wouldn’t try that with a grown up audience. You’d have to lie to them.

          Oh, that’s right. You already did that.

          You’re the guys who have the arrogance to tell impressionable children that America stinks. You tell it to the kids you prey upon who haven’t been out in the world, so they believe you.

          And you love it.

          But, wait a sec! You haven’t been out in the world either, have you?

          You’re the guys who go straight from graduate school to government or to a professorship at some university, your feet never touching the real world ground, never holding a real job the way we stupid Americans do.

          You’re the Ward Churchills, the Bill Ayers, and the Jonathan Grubers. You’re Obama’s White House and all the president’s men.

          You’re one of those people who tell us what is, who write policy, but don’t know the price of a gallon of milk.

          Like Ward Churchill, former professor at the University of Colorado. In a recent interview, this professor teaching at an American university searched his mind and couldn’t find one good thing to say about America! And, when asked, said he believed Americans got what was coming to them when Muslim terrorists plowed into our World Trade Center.

          And we paid him to teach our kids!

          Same for Bill Ayers, late of the University of Illinois. We paid him to teach our kids, too.

          This guy co-founded the Weather Underground, creeping around in the shadows, busily protesting the Vietnam War and blowing up government buildings. And when asked in a recent interview if he regretted his actions, said he wished he’d done more.

          And you’re one of them, Gruber, arrogant and self-involved ingrates.

          So yeah, we know who you guys are. You’re the ones who play war with video games, but never sign up to fight for real in our all-volunteer military.

          You’re the ones who cloak themselves in the protection of the First Amendment to take pot shots at everything American and give back zip.

          And you’re the guys who brag that they have the inside track straight to the White House door. You’re name droppers, dropping names like Romney and Romneycare, and Pelosi and Obama.

          But you missed the part where what goes around comes around. Now you and your name are getting dropped, but not in a good way!

          You may have been courted at the White House once upon a time, but those days are over, my friend. Now it’s your turn under Obama’s bus!

          The duplicity you so loved cuts both ways. Now, the very people who embraced you, who bragged how you helped them craft their illegal, unconstitutional healthcare bill and stuff it down the throats of American citizens, suddenly don’t want to know you!

          Nancy Pelosi says she never heard of you even though she’s on tape extolling you and the role you played in Obamacare.

          So who’s stupid there?

          And Obama? Well, as usual, when bad news breaks, he’s conveniently out of town.

          But, predictably, he’s "outraged, didn’t know and won’t rest until he gets to the bottom of who you are,” because he says he doesn’t know you, dude!

          While your president was busy playing dress-up with the Chinese over in Beijing, he was putting the wheels in motion to dump you!

          You’re so much smarter than we are, Gruber. How come you didn’t see that one coming?

          Sure, you apologized for your comments as being "off the cuff and inappropriate,” and spoken at an "academic conference,” as if that made it okay, as if academic conferences were something we stupid Americans would never attend, but you forgot you were on tape at least another three or four times saying the same thing!

          What’s the matter, Gruber? They didn’t teach you about videotape at MIT?

          So don’t bother apologizing. The Americans who believe in the Constitution don’t respect you enough to be insulted by you.

          And by the way, not that you bothered checking, but the American people rejected Obamacare from day one and still do. Some of us even read it. Yeah, we can read.

          And we rejected it because we always knew what this administration was doing. The Cadillac tax, the 30-hour work week, the redistribution of wealth, the whole shebang, including what happens to middle class, working Americans in 2015 when the employer mandate kicks in.

          But liars being what they are, you certainly did have an advantage. Liars always do. Because you were right. Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage.

          The lies and tortured language in the bill were a deliberate and justifiable means to an end, at least in the minds of you people. But that’s no surprise. This has been the mantra of the lawless Obama Regime. Use who you can for whatever you need.

          And you played your part, but they don’t need you anymore. Isn’t it funny? You were just a means to an end, Gruber. Now the only thing they need you for is to be their fall guy!

          So we ask you, Gruber. You may be sorry, but who’s stupid now?

          Hold the line, America.
