Vídeos: Administração Obama acha que o Povo Americano é "Estúpido Demais"

A "lei assinatura" do Governo Obama, aquela lei que será lembrada destacadamente como do Obama, assim considerada pelo próprio Obama, é a lei do novo sistema de saúde do país, conhecida como Obamacare. E esta lei foi aprovada sem que se conhecesse tudo que está escrito nela. Depois de aprovada o Obamacare se tornou um estorvo para o partido de Obama. Nas últimas eleições parlamentares, que deu as duas casas do Congresso para a oposição, todos os opositores foram eleitos com a promessa de acabar com o Obamacare.

Agora, aparecem vídeos de um dos "arquitetos" da lei, professor do MIT, que revela que administração Obama usou a falta de transparência e uso de linguagem deturpada para que o público americano apoiasse a aprovação do Obamacare, porque, segundo Gruber, a lei continha coisas que o povo não apoiaria porque "é estúpido demais".

Quando apareceu o primeiro vídeo em que Gruber diz que o povo americano era estúpido demais, Gruber pediu desculpas, mas depois apareceram mais dois vídeos que ele diz a mesma coisa.

Vejam dois vídeos abaixo sobre isso:








Vejam agora parte de um texto do site The Hill sobre o assunto (para quem não sabe GOP significa Partido Republicano, partido de oposição a Obama, e ammo é redução para munição):

Voter stupidity remark gives GOP new ammo on ObamaCare

Comments about voter stupidity made by an ally of the Obama administration are turning into conservatives’ newest weapon against the president’s healthcare law.

A series of unearthed videos of ObamaCare consultant Jonathan Gruber insulting U.S. voters while saying a “lack of transparency” helped Congress pass the healthcare law are attracting serious attention on the right just as Republicans prepare to take control of the Senate.

The newly discovered remarks — revealed so far in three videos circulated by conservative media — add fuel to the GOP’s claim that Democrats were deliberately obscuring pieces of the law to assure its passage.

Add a wave of interest from Republican lawmakers and increasing scrutiny from the mainstream media, and you have the latest flashpoint in the abiding partisan war over ObamaCare, just ahead of the start of the law’s second enrollment periodon Saturday.

Gruber, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who also helped craft that state’s healthcare reform law, said Tuesday that he regrets saying ObamaCare passed because of the “stupidity of the American voter.”

Republicans have long charged that the healthcare reform bill was pushed through without public scrutiny. A gaffe from House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) in 2010 added to this impression.

“We have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it, away from the fog of the controversy,” Pelosi said.

Pelosi argues the remark was taken out of context and that she was referring to the uncertainty about what legislation would emerge from the Senate. But the comment still echoes in conservative rhetoric four years later.

On the other side of the Capitol, Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) said he was “sure” that Gruber would be brought to Congress to testify.

The release of Gruber comments occurs just as the Obama administration takes pains to lower expectations ahead of its second sign-up period, hoping to avoid a repeat of last year’s crisis.

Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Mathews Burwell said Tuesday that she’s hoping for 9.1 million enrollees for 2015, markedly less than the 13 million projected by the Congressional Budget Office.

Democrats’ drubbing in the midterm elections, meanwhile, has taken focus off better news for ObamaCare and put it back on how Republicans hope to dismantle the law next year.

On MSNBC Tuesday morning, former Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean acknowledged that Gruber's comments have stung the party, though he downplayed the professor’s role in the law’s passage.

“He's a consultant, not the architect [of] ObamaCare,” Dean said, adding: “I’m not excusing the language — it’s terrible.”
