Jack Black and America Ferrera Mock Those Opposed to ObamaCare in New Ad

[wildflower]

Sorry about the Fox link...I followed it from another news site.

President Obama has received a helping hand from Hollywood in building support for the healthcare law he signed this past spring.

Actors America Ferrera and Jack Black have teamed up with HCAN (Healthcare For America NOW), the coalition that led the fight for health care reform, for a comedy-driven video entitled “The Mis-Informant." The spot is an attempt to lampoon what they believe is the flood of “corporate lies and false information” health insurance industry front groups have been spreading.

“While this video is brilliant comedy, it is also part of a serious public education effort,” HCAN Executive Director Ethan Rome told Pop Tarts. “Opponents of the law are spending millions to spread outright lies about the law and its supporters.”

...

Other critics of the healthcare law warn viewers not to buy the star-studded schtick.

“Hollywood should be more concerned about the mental health of America’s children with all the cattle crap they are putting in their brains than a healthcare bill that those same children will be stuck paying for the rest of their lives,” Patrick Dorinson, GOP communications strategist and founder/CEO of Dorinson Communications, told Pop Tarts. “In 20 years no one will remember these two ‘stars’ ever existed, but the debt we will pay for ObamaCare will still be here."

(I don't get what he means by "cattle crap they are putting in their brains.")

1. By 'cattle crap' he undoubtedly means Fox 'news' (R)

2. Cattle crap is part of livestock doctrine.

There is a view among those with a superiority complex. They believe all 'love and giving' thoughts are taught so a few people can get what they think is theirs by them being superior. They think nice people are forced to be nice to serve them with many things by their not taking and being mean.

There is a group that think being nice and kind is a punishment so people will serve some other group to the advantage of that group.

So cattle crap to them is the idea of being kind and loving, since they see those actions as giving up what you have to someone else, they would rather be a receiver, and think the givers are the ones lied to to serve them.

I do believe in balance, so that people can both receive and give, but that is by all living a more modest life style with more thoughts of giving, and helping the biggest givers. Since sometimes they get tricked into giving up joy, and by that they are not able to spread as much happiness.

Note that many that have sung of many good things also received many good things, and shared them with many people. Both in spiritual and material.


The concept that being nice is a punishment is a standard delusion, and part of many groups.

Sorry about the Fox link.

10. Nothing to be sorry about.

I just have this compulsion to track things down to their original source.

I'd never even have known about the videos if it weren't for you posting the Fox link -- so thank you!

The other thing is that Fox, by making an issue about this, is giving HCAN more publicity and viewers of the videos -- and that's good because the more people see them the better.

:hi:
