Andy Griffith ad

1. Why are our tax dollars paying for this? 2. If Obamacare is so great, why do they need to keep advertising it? 3. Andy Griffith should be ashamed of himself, lying like that and becoming a tool for deceiving seniors about Obamcare.

They are cutting Medicare to the point where elderly people can’t see doctors.

This is taxpayer-funded propaganda and lies and it needs to be stopped.

He's worked hard, amassed a $45+ Million dollar fortune. NOW STFU. Leave your money to the government, and stop trying to make us pay more taxes.

We should demand that our taxdollars not be used by Obama’s perpetual campaign. This should be against the law if it’s not already.

Will he be telling people in the ads that they won’t be able to see a doctor anymore? Because that is what my Dad’s neurologist told him, he won’t see Medicare patients anymore due to the cuts.

I guess the dems think that the ad will gain more credibility if presented by good, ole Andy.

It doesn’t.
