If you've ever been in an argument with a diehard progressive, you know it can only end one way. They can't win on the facts, so they change the subject, start screaming, and eventually storm off. Unfortunately for them, if they're in front of a TV camera that's not really an option.
Live TV forces them to rein in the crazy and, every so often, admit that they've been wrong. It's rare, but it happens.
This weekend, some new emails surfaced which indicated - as we all knew - that Jonathan "ignorance of the voters" Gruber was instrumental in the creation of the ObamaCare debacle. Despite a couple of years’ worth of left-wing assurances that his role in the ACA's creation had been overstated, we now learn that he was just as instrumental as we've always assumed.
So, MSNBC's "Morning Joe" host decided to ask his panel - including Howard Dean - about it. Did *GASP* the White House lie about the extent of Gruber's involvement?
Hint: Yes. They did.
Oh, isn't it a hoot? Isn't it just abso-freaking-hilarious how the healthcare industry was subjugated by a man who openly admits relying on the ignorance of the American voter to pass his terrible law?
What a grand old time they're all having.
