Conservatives Think Dems Are Releasing Torture Report to Distract from Gruber Testimony

On Tuesday, health care maybetect and new conservative scarecrow Jonathan Gruber will testify before the House Oversight Committee, and the Senate Intelligence Committee will release its long-awaited report on the CIA torture funplex enhanced interrogation techniques employed during the Bush administration.

For some, that’s not a coincidence:

Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber is set to testify today before Darrell Issa’s gov. oversight committee So:Ds release the Torture Report.

Dem Senators release incomplete "torture" report to distract from #Gruber testimony. Once again, good for Dems=bad for America.

Wonder if Dems timed the release of their "Torture Report" to deflect attention from Gruber testifying about the lies used to pass the ACA?

Big Coincidence Today: (wink) Feinstein's Torture Report Released On The Same Day Of Gruber Testimony; http://t.co/TMlcfIeyW9

@ellencarmichael The timing is suspicious. The "torture" report will be released the same day that Gruber testifies in congress.

WH to release CIA torture report tomorrow oh yeah and Gruber testifies tomorrow about Obamacare

Don’t you see what’s going on?

And for the win:

Imma throw it out there; waterboarding is not torture. Jonathan Gruber and Obamacare are f*cking torture.

It all seems a bit fishy given that the release of the massive torture report has been haggled over for months and the Obama administration itself has tried to stuff the report as recently as this week, but that could just be what they want you to think.
