Stupidity of the American Voter?

It would appear they must be somewhat stupid when even their political leaders laugh at them.

This administration has a history of waiting out all the scandals over the years, scandals which would destroy governments in earlier times, and this is likely to be no exception. The fiercely loyal Democrats will just shrug it off, despite the insults directed at them, and a new scandal will take its place. The MSM will go along with it.

But this will all be remembered at the next election. That's when the long-suffering 'silent majority' will finally have its say.

Well, it appears not to bother them to be called "stupid voters". They will defend this President no matter how much contempt he has for them. Hey, if it doesn't bother them to know he thinks they're stupid, I'm fine with it. And they even seem to think they are stupid, so I guess Obama and his ACA architect were right after all.

Makes me even gladder that I don't support that nightmare of a disasterous law. At least I'm not one of the "stupid" ones.
 
The point is that they lied about all these provisions and made the language in the Act as unintelligible as possible. How can Americans know what these provisions are when it is built on lies, deliberate confusion, and misinformation? They just think they know, or like the philosophy behind it, but they remain in the dark.
 


ObamaCare isn't " affordable ".

Thats the paradox, or the contradiction. Remember ? They had to LIE to get it through a Democrat Congress.

According to the key architect, by design it raies cost for the young and healthy.

That would be the bulk of the Middle class.
 
Moderate democrat agenda?:funny

Yeah LOL. Only a Democrat would call the agenda put forth by the Democrats moderate, but it isn't to all those Americans in the middle, the center left and center right crowd, moderates if you will. This nation and the voters have a long history of kicking out a party that goes to far left or right. You seen it in 2006 when the voters decided they had enough of the conservative agenda, you saw it again in 2010, the ACA and in 2014 when the voters decided they had enough of the liberal agenda.

Here is something to put in your pipe and smoke, to think about:

Majority in U.S. Want GOP in Congress to Set Nation's Course

I think Obama fatigue has set in, the only question is will it stay like Bush fatigue did from 2006 into 2008 or can he right his ship? I'll be watching that.

The majority of Americans are on your side, which means a general sigh of relief for everyone. More will side with you when they realize how they've been duped.

Most yes, but a year ago according to Gallup 90% of Democrats approved of the job President Obama was doing, today or as of yesterday that number is 78%. Last Tuesday according to ABC's exist polls 37% of those who voted were Democrats compared to 34% who were Republicans. Yet the Republicans won. Hmm, sound like some Democrats were voting Republican.
 
REally!? What minute mark?

If you've been watching the news for the past day or two, you've seen it. Or I guess that just depends on which cable news network you watch. I wouldn't be at all surprised if one or two of them ignore the story altogether.
 
He said, "call it the stupidity of The American people". Are you ignoring the reality of this on purpose?

:naughty:naughty This isnt about that remark. Its about the "lie" remark. Where did he say it?

“This bill was written in a tortured way to make sure CBO did not score the mandate as taxes. If CBO scored the mandate as taxes, the bill dies.”

Still not saying anything about lying...
 
Here ya go TDS.....try at the 37 second mark. ;)



Didnt see anything at the 37 mark. Something about transparency. Just because its not fully transparent does not mean its lying..

He admits that the objective was to deceive the people. Deception = a lie.

"If you like your plan, you can keep your plan...period".

Here are some of his comments.
You get a law which said healthy people are going to pay in, it made explicit that healthy people pay and sick people get money, it would not have passed. Ok? Just the cal – people transparent – 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 get this thing to pass.
 
Liberal fatigue.

I wouldn't go that far. This last election was more a referendum on Obama than ideology, at least in my opinion. ABC's exit polls show 59% of those who voted were dissatisfied with the president to include 23% who were down right angry at him. 32% of those who voted said their vote was against Obama while only 20% said their vote was in support of Obama. Let's face it, the Republicans nationalized the election and for the most part ran against Obama. It is not that the Republicans put forth an agenda of their own like they did with the contract with America. They said if you are tired of Obama, vote for me.
