"Pelosi on Gruber:
November 13, 2014
"
I don't know who he is. He didn't help write our bill.""
But ....
in November 2009, at the height of the Obamacare debate.
Here's the transcript, via Nexis:
Q: As you know, the Republicans released their health- care bill this week. And I wanted to get your comment on the bill, and specifically on the CBO analysis that it would cost significantly less than the Democratic plan and that it would lower premiums.
"
PELOSI: Let me just say this. Anything you need to know about the
difference between the Democratic bill and the Republican bill is that the Republicans do not end the health insurance companies' discrimination against people with preexisting conditions. They let that stand. That's scandalous, the fact that it exists. I don't understand why they have not heard the American people, who have said preexisting conditions should not be a source of discrimination.
"And secondly, the Republican plan ensures about 3 million more people than now, and ours does 36 million people. So that's a very big difference in that.
"
We're not finished getting all of our reports back from CBO, but we'll have a side by side to compare. But our bill brings down rates. I don't know if you have seen Jonathan Gruber of MIT's analysis of what the comparison is to the status quo versus what will happen in our bill for those who seek insurance within the exchange. And our bill takes down those costs, even some now, and much less preventing the upward spiral.
"So again, we're confident about what we set out to do in the bill:
middle class affordability,
security for our seniors, and
accountability to our children."
BTW: I thought the Republicans didn't have any "proposal"!!!!!
That's right: The Republicans had a fuckin' BILL!!!!!
