Gruber White House Meeting Included CBO Director, Robert Gibbs, Axelrod and Barack Obama
From Gateway Pundit:
Yesterday’s story of Gruber meeting with Obama in the Oval Office to plan the Cadillac Tax lie was found on the PBS website. In that interview, MIT Economist Jonathan Grubergleefully recounts the July 20th meeting where they discussed how to get around the CBO scoring of Obamacare.
“So we had a meeting in the Oval Office with several experts, including myself, on what can we do to get credible savings on cost control that the Congressional Budget Office would recognize and score as savings in this law.“
Who else was in that meeting with Gruber and Obama?
According to ABC, everyone.
” In addition to the president and Elmendorf, present in the meeting were White House officials such as Assistant to the President for Legislative Affairs Phil Schiliro, Director of the White House Office of Health Reform Nancy-Ann DeParle, Office of Management and Budget director Peter Orszag (a former CBO director himself), National Economic Council Director Larry Summers, chair of the Council of Economic Advisers Christy Romer, senior adviser David Axelrod, and press secretary Robert Gibbs.
Others were there as well, including Department of Health and Human Services adviser Meena Seshamani, Harvard University economist David Cutler and Alice Rivlin of the Brookings Institute, who was founding director of CBO from 1975-1983.”
Gruber was not mentioned by name in the ABC piece, but the White House logs show us that Jonathan Gruber and David Cutler, a Harvard economist, entered the White House at the same time to meet the POTUS in the West Wing.
THIS IS STUNNING STUFF. YOU HAVE TO DIGEST IT ALL.
