Jonathan Gruber, an MIT professor who helped design
Obamacare, speaks to the camera, saying: “Open Enrollment begins November 15
for the Affordable Care Act, so don’t forget. We counted on the stupidity of the
American voter to get the law passed, but we’re not sure now that your
stupidity is such a great thing anymore, because we want you to remember to
sign up, and as I’ve said before, you American voters are really stupid, so you
might forget. And that’s why I’m reminding you to sign up, stupid American voters. But after enrolling, please resume your stupidity so the government can successfully continue to lie to you about what it’s doing.”
This joke ad is based upon Jonathan Gruber’s own statements,
