A top Obama administration health official considered 

putting MIT economist Jonathan Gruber to work on

 Obamacare to be an initiative of such “key political 

importance” that it was expedited because of

 “political push” from the Obama administration, 

emails released by the Department of Health 

and Human Services (HHS) reveal.

The agency released 750 pages of 

heavily-redacted records on Monday to The Daily Caller and other news outlets in 

response to a Freedom of Information Act request.

In one telling exchange after Gruber’s Obamacare work was first reported in 2010, 

one HHS analyst told another that having Democrats in charge “across the 

board” would “stop some scrutiny” into the arrangement. Gruber’s work attracted 

scrutiny because the Obama administration failed to disclose the academic’s support 

for the health-care law without disclosing that he was paid $392,000 to help craft it.

The biggest takeaway from the emails is that they undermine one claim made by the 

Obama administration that Gruber was merely a bit player in the development of 

Obamacare. Described by many as the “architect” of the health-care law, Gruber 

was thrown under the bus after numerous videos surfaced last year of him bragging 

that Obamacare was passed because of “a lack of transparency” into the law and

 because the American people “were too stupid” to realize they were being manipulated

 into supporting it.
