President Obama and his allies, concerned about deep skepticism over his landmark health care overhaul, are orchestrating an elaborate campaign to sell the public on the law, including a new tax-exempt group that will spend millions of dollars on advertising to beat back attacks on the measure and Democrats who voted for it.
Americans will see the first evidence of the public relations offensive on Tuesday, when Mr. Obama travels to Wheaton, Md., to conduct a nationally televised question-and-answer session with older citizens to trumpet one of the law's most popular features: $250 rebate checks to help Medicare beneficiaries pay for prescription drugs.

We should all use that bumper sticker — unfortunately it’s so true...
Amen....
Some people have the vocabulary to sum up things in a way you can understand.
This quote was translated into English from an article appearing in the Czech Republic as published in the Prager Zeitung of 28 April 2010 .
“The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president.”
“The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince.
The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool.
It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.”
It was underwritten by some group pushing Obama. Had to be. There wasn't even a joke, just a sales pitch for Obama's health care disguised as an ad for a comedy DVD.
Juan Williams said it best. Americans are not buying this dog food called Obamacare.
This is really called get out the vote...November is coming and the Demonrats are worried...Sell sell Sell
Well, there is all of that unspent stimulus money. Is there any doubt that the master plan was to siphon what remains as payoffs & incentives to help the Dims come November?! This is the Quid for the Quo that was their votes.
More than half a Trillion comes from the Medicare cut & gut.
Yes, they actually think we’re too stupid to realize that a $250 dollar rebate doesn’t compensate for the tax burden and rationing.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
I knew the human yeast infection would erupt again; I just was unsure of the site.
