Taxdollars Funding Obamacare Commercial
TalkingSides.com ^ | 07/30/10 | CaroleL

Yes, Medicare is quickly running out of money and Obamacare is causing drastic cuts, but evidently there's enough cash to hire celebrity spokesman Andy Griffith and produce a new television ad aimed at bamboozling seniors into thinking "good things are coming."

What does Obastard care? It’s not his money he is spending. It money from the evil people who work for a living and dare to earn more than a pittance.

Andy better not show his face in Mayberry or he might get his a** beaten.

A rather satisfying thought I must say. :-)

That A-hole actually believes it’s government money as he see’s everybody as subjects to the masters of government. He hasn’t a clue about our Republic, or who the bosses really are per our Constitution.

I believe the crap about him being a Constitutional scholar is just that. Crap. I don’t think he knows excrement about it.

I despise that son of a bitch, and hope he gets one “H” of a toothache just prior to jockeying his teleprompter.

Amazing they can use our taxdollars for their liberal propaganda.

The old fart has gone around the bend in my opinion.

One of my favorites too. I bet he’s clueless about the details.

Does this come as a surprise to you? They have been doing it for years.

If he is then he is senile. If isn't he is part of the problem. I will cut him no slack either way.

Sad to hear this, from the same guy who played “Lonesome Rhodes” in the great Kazan film “A Face in the Crowd”.
Lonesome being a sort of Clintonesque con artist catapulted into politics. He learned nothing from the film I guess.

Last year, or was it 2008?, someone pointed out that Griffith and Howard were Moonbats to me. It was like someone told me Opie did crack and Andy ran the mules. Destroyed some of my better childhood memories on the spot.

That said, it’s a tough road to hoe when you walk through the corridors of what are considered really good nursing homes and hospice centers. People in wheelchairs, zombied out with ‘medications’ to keep them quiet, nursing ‘staff’ at their stations, and precious few relatives in and out to see their own relatives. I’ve become convinced that we care for the young and old as items in warehouses. Day ‘Care’ and Elder ‘Care’ often function in direct opposition to what ‘care’ actually means as a word. Being careful or caring is just an exercise in vocabulary in such cases.

Perhaps they’ll euthanize him on air to give seniors a real clue about how 0nazicare will cut costs.

At least we have the satisfaction of knowing that, at his age, Andy will be among the first to be denied life-saving care under Medicare’s new Rationer in Chief.

Andy Griffith's new role: pitching health care law

Friday, July 30, 2010 3:09:01 PM · 73 of 79
Gene Eric to ...

>> Obama’s health care law to seniors in a cable television ad paid for by Medicare.

What about equal time for opposing views? We’re talking about tax dollars, right?
