In anticipation of the Supreme Court's forthcoming ruling on the Obamacare case, the Republican National Committee is going on the offensive. In a new 66-second web video, which is set to be released later today, Republicans are blaiming the law on Democrats who "pushed through Obamacare." Not a single Republican voted for Obamacare's passage.
Watch here:
The ad features some of the loudest (and most unpopular) voices on Obamacare.
"You know, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever," Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber is quoted as saying in the ad.
"We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what's in it," Nancy Pelosi, the former speaker of the House, says in the ad.
"Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage," Gruber is heard saying.
Then news reports are played describing that the Affordable Care Act, Obamacare, is not working as intended and that it isn't affordable as promised.
An on screen graphic says that Obamacare is "hurting the American people."
Finally, the ad ends with Hillary Clinton, who advocated Hillarycare in the 1990s and who is seeking the Democratic nomination.
"Obama & the Democrats rush to pass Obamacare," reads the finaly on screen graphic. "Americans are paying the price. Help us stop Hillary. StopHillary.gop."
The web ad is titled, "A Reckless Law."
