"Democrats" who feign outrage over the Gruber tapes are ALEC's useful idiots [View all]

[Ykcutnek]

Healthcare for millions of Americans is at stake in the latest Affordable Care Act challenge to reach the U.S. Supreme Court -- and if the Court sides with the challengers, the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) and other Koch-funded groups will have laid the groundwork for the healthcare law's destruction.

On November 7, the Court granted review of the case King v. Burwell, which argues that the ACA should be read as prohibiting insurance premium subsidies for low-income citizens in states that refused to set up their own online healthcare exchanges -- which is contrary to the clear intent of the law's drafters and to a reading of the law as a whole. The chief advocate for the ACA interpretation of the ACA advanced by the King plaintiffs is Michael Cannon, a fellow at the Koch-funded Cato Institute.

The tapes are not a coincidence. It is a coordinated effort to soften the blow of SCOTUS destroying millions of lives. And those on our side claiming they're outraged are either willing participants in this dastardly effort or ALEC's useful idiots.
