They beans are starting to spill. From Cains failure as a CEO at Godfathers Pizza, Perry's soft heart for Illegal Aliens and now it is confirmed that Romney's own advisors went to the White House to help draft Obamacare. This is terrible and it is exactly what Governor Palin warned us about with these Rinos, Crony Capitalizm. It's true. These politicians are ate up with it. I want to see how Romney will spin this one.
Romney Advisors | White House | Romneycare | Obamacare | The Daily Caller
The Obama administration may have relied much more heavily on Romneys Massachusetts healthcare legislation as a blueprint for Obamacare than was previously believed.
White House visitor logs obtained by NBC News revealed that three of Romneys healthcare advisers had up to a dozen meetings with senior administration officials, including one in the Oval Office presided over by President Barack Obama.
They really wanted to know how we can take that same approach we used in Massachusetts and turn that into a national model, MIT economist and Romney healthcare adviser Jon Gruber told NBC.
Whats more, the records show Gruber was given a $380,000 contract in 2009 to help draft new legislation based on the Massachusetts healthcare law.
The White House tapped another Romney adviser, John Kingsdale, who in 2006 was put in charge of the state agency tasked with implementing Romneys healthcare plan. In 2009, Kingsdale attended three White House meetings on healthcare.
A third Romney adviser, John McDonough, attended four White House healthcare meetings. McDonough shared an innovator in health award with the Massachusetts governor, after leading a health advocacy group in Massachusetts and working with Romney as a consumer advocate on the legislation.
Though Obama has repeatedly said that he modeled Obamacare on Romneys healthcare plan, Romney has tried to wash his hands of the association.
