Valerie Jarrett:Pressuring Hollywood Into Writing Obamacare Into Movie and TV Scripts
Does far-left Hollywood really need to be pressured? They seem awfully willing to do whatever Obama asks them to do.
A top of advisor to President Barack Obama is in Los Angeles to try to get Obamacare written into scripts of TV shows and movies. Valerie Jarrett explained in an appearance on Top That! on PopSugar.com:
“That’s the cool thing,” a host said to the presidential advisor. “You’ve been reaching out to people that are, you know, outside of the norm of what the president might work with. Who else are you working with? Like celebrities, personalities, things like that?”
“You name it,” said Jarrett. “That’s part of why I’m in L.A. I’m meeting with writers of various TV shows and movies to try to get it into the scripts.” When Jarrett says “it into the scripts,” she’s referring to getting references to Obamacare, the president’s signature legislation, into the scripts of TV shows and movies.
She continued: “We’re talking to celebrities. We’re talking to athletes, because obviously they get injured a lot and many of them are the same age as the market we’re going after. And what they can say is, ‘Look, you never know when life is going to throw you a curve ball. You’re walking down the street, you’re a little clumsy, you trip, you fall — where do you end up? Emergency room. A couple grand just to walk in the door.”

celebrities, personalities...style over substance.
College students can name songs from Disney films, but not a single senator.
Teachers like fitbud have succeeded in dumbing down the populace, so they'll accept anything a celebrity tells them.

Nothing but indoctrination.
Our government is no longer about doing what the people want, it is about forcing the people to do what the government wants.

ZeroCare is already being mentioned on TV shows. Too bad it is mostly on Comedy Central.

Obamacare is the only fantasy device Noah was missing.

How ironic. Just this Friday in L.V. my wife and I went to watch Alonzo Bodden in Brad Garretts Comedy Show and he was pushing it in the way they like to do it. By making it seem that if you don't like ObamaCare you're a dumb S.
I wonder how long before the Great Earthquake? Hollywood is due.
