Two years ago we took considerable flak for highlighting the Nine Anticipated Stages of Obamacare Outrage. However, despite the political delays provided by the White House to avoid consequences, and given the context of the Jonathan Gruber video (recently surfaced) we can advance to stage #5.
The 2013 meme for antagonism around Obamacare was to point out the inherent falsehood behind the statement:
