GruberGate

I haven't paid much attention to Jonathan Gruber, the man who said that because Americans are stupid, ObamaCare will pass. Here's a summary page to catch up on the hoopla. Of course, the Republicans are having fun with this, pointing to it as just one more reason the law should be repealed or defunded or whatever the current buzz is at the moment (it changes too fast for me to do my work and keep up). The way I see it, all this pointing fingers at Jonathan Gruber simply means there's now a face that can be tied to the law and a catch phrase about the law that will stick in the minds of people. The word "scapegoat" comes to mind for some unknown reason. Gruber had no vote in Congress.
