Barack Obama signing the ‘Affordable Care Act’ (Pete Souza)

CBS ran the headline “The stupidity of the American voter” for the following article today:

November 13, 2014

A new controversy is stirring over the Affordable Care Act, and this time it has nothing to do with the website.

One of the architects of the health care law was caught on camera saying the bill was written specifically so as not to be viewed as a tax. He then goes on to call American voters stupid, reports CBS News correspondent Jan Crawford.

He was one of the most senior advisers helping to create the health care law, and that’s why people could not believe he said this:

“Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage, and basically, you know, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really, really critical to getting the thing to pass,” Jonathan Gruber said at the Annual Health Economics Conference.

Gruber was a key player in developing the law, and those remarks weren’t the only time an Obama adviser suggested the administration had pulled a fast one with the law.

“They proposed it and that passed because the American voters are too stupid to understand the difference,” he said.

The New York Times, in a glowing 2012 profile, said he not only “…put together the basic principles of the proposal…” but helped Congress, “…draft the specifics off the legislation.” http://www.cbsnews.com/news/affordable-care-act-architect-on-camera-bashing-american-voters/

Notice also the following:

The Obamacare deceit: A law built on lies

Video surfaced this week showing MIT economist Jonathan Gruber, an architect of Obamacare, speaking of that law at an October, 2013, academic conference. He said “this bill was written in a tortured way to make sure the CBO did not score the mandate as taxes. If CBO scores the mandate as taxes, the bill dies. OK? So it’s written to do that.

“In terms of (inaudible) subsidies, if you had a law that said healthy people are going to pay in, that made it explicit that healthy people pay in and sick people get money, it would not have passed. OK?”

He clarified even further: “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 the thing to pass.”

The kicker: He said, referring to another person on the panel, “Look, I wish Mark was right, we could make it all transparent, but I’d rather have this law than not.”

Let that sink in.

President Obama’s signature legislative accomplishment was written with the deliberate and malicious intent of deceiving the American people into supporting policies — especially massive wealth transfers — they never would have supported had they known the truth.

And by the way, taxpayers paid Gruber $392,600 for his work on Obamacare — work that involved hiding the effects and the costs of Obamacare from taxpayers.  http://www.unionleader.com/article/20141113/OPINION01/141119593

So, deceit was considered necessary to pass the bill commonly known as Obamacare.

Earlier this year, Barack Obama has gone and declared that those who are encouraging people to sign up for his healthcare law (often referred to as Obamacare) are doing God’s work (see Obama claims helping with Obamacare is ‘doing God’s work’).

Notice something from the Bible:

10 Cursed is he who does the work of the Lord deceitfully, (Jeremiah 48:10)

Obamacare support is not the ‘work of God,’ despite the fact that it may sometimes do some good.  Laws should not be written to be deceitfully passed.

Furthermore, Obamacare has attempted to force funding for abortion, something else that is NOT only NOT THE WORK OF GOD, but opposes the word of God.  Obamacare is covering ‘spouses’ in homosexual ‘marriages,’ which should not be allowed.

With more truth about Obamacare out, perhaps more may try to overturn it.  But many, especially those who support abortion and the homosexual agenda, will tend to support it.
