#1 “By the way you have now permanently prevented yourself from winning a high elected office in the United States despite your charisma,”

Gruber has the charisma of a dead fish. Indeed, there is no danger of him winning any office--even that of dog catcher.

I'd like to shake the hand of whoever found all the old videos of him telling his audiences that lying was necessary to prop up horribly bad legislation in order to pass it. Moreover, he disparaged the voters by saying they were too dumb to sort out the lying. As I recall, it was the Democratic legislators who passed this bad legislation. The majority of Americans did not want it now or when Hildebeast was trying to pass it when her husband was President.

#2 John, this is the fellow:

Rich Weinstein is not a reporter. He does not have a blog. Until this week, the fortysomething's five-year old Twitter account had a follower count in the low double digits.

“I’m an investment adviser,” Weinstein tells me from his home near Philadelphia. “I’m a nobody. I’m the guy who lives in his mom’s basement wearing a tinfoil hat.” (He's joking about the mom and the tinfoil.)

He's also behind a series of scoops that could convince the Supreme Court to dismantle part of the Affordable Care Act. Weinstein has absorbed hours upon hours of interviews with Jonathan Gruber, an MIT professor who advised the Massachusetts legislature when it created “Romneycare” and the Congress when it created “Obamacare.”

“It’s terrifying that the guy in his mom’s basement is finding his stuff, and nobody else is,” he says. “I really do find this disturbing.”

#3 Its not just Gruber who has an odd view, its a tack many gun grabbers are using, including the recent surgeon general nomination Murthy.

Grubber and Smurphy are dandylion seeds.
