Not as stupid as he thinks - Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, says a congressional investigation may be in order as more damning videos of ObamaCare architect Johnathan Gruber continue to surface. “We may want to have hearings on this. We shouldn’t be surprised they were misleading us,” Jordan told WaPo. Meanwhile, the Daily caller reports a third video has surfaced in which Gruber brags about pulling the wool over the public’s eyes in order to help implement ObamaCare. “‘It’s a very clever, you know, basic exploitation of the lack of economic understanding of the American voter,’ Gruber, an economist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, said during a speech at the University of Rhode Island in November 2012.” [“[T]he process associated with writing, passing, and implementing the Affordable Care Act has been extraordinarily transparent. We all sat through many town hall meetings and discussions where this piece of legislation was vigorously debated on both sides…The fact is I think it is Republicans who haven’t been transparent or particularly honest about the true impact of this.”— White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest responding to a question from Chief White House Correspondent Ed Henry about Gruber’s comments during a press briefing Thursday.]
