The truth hurts.

Via The Hill:

The head of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) on Monday strongly condemned comments from former ObamaCare consultant Jonathan Gruber in which he blamed the law’s passage on the “stupidity” of the American voter.

“I was extremely offended by his comments,” HHS Secretary Sylvia Mathews Burwell told an audience in Tampa Bay, offering her most critical comments yet about the Obama administration’s former adviser.

“As a public servant for many years, I have worked on these issues, and I have complete confidence in the American people,” Burwell said, standing beside U.S. Rep. Kathy Castor (D- Fla.) at an event to promote open enrollment in ObamaCare. Her remarks were recorded by WTSB, a local Gannett affiliate.
