David Gregory said on MSNBC that this government has never accomplished something as big as Obama care. What an idiot, SS, Medicare, WWII, Medicaid, man on moon, Civil War, are whole lot bigger than referring people to private health insurance and providing a subsidy based on your income.

The audience for MSNBC is 1 in 1,115 people, or .08% of the US population.

David Gregory is just ignorant, stupid, or blatantly lying to the public. Either way he demonstrates time and time again he isn't intelligent enough to have his job.

Republicon propaganda pimps like Gregory & Limbaugh repeatedly make it plain that they are the pathetic party of negativity and FAIL.
