...albeit in a very mean, dishonest and disgusting way. But they failed, and instead, they showed the mean, dishonest and disgusting side of the Obama's reelection machine.

In less than 2 decades, your health care will be like the DVM.

Canada is already crying that their system is unsustainable and people cannot get a primary care physician. They hold lotteries in some town for a doctor. And their Canadian Supreme Court has ruled that "access to a waiting list is not access to health care".
The only ones crying about the Canadian or British systems are, well, some unaware Americans.

What this ad actually does is make it so that any future ads for Obama will be disregarded by the people who he wants to reach.

They will remember that Obama's people lied to them.

"Unaware" of why so many cars with Canadian plates are clogging up the hospital parking lots of the border states, maybe

Wow....did a moonbat REALLY just say that? More LIES from the Lefties:

Maybe the CBC isn't Canadian???....

Health care unsustainable: report. What do you think should be done? - Point of View

Need a Doctor in Canada?:

Need A Doctor? Better Win the Lottery

Perhaps the Canadian Supreme Court isn't really Canadian either?:

Anchor Rising: Canadian Supreme Court: "Access to a Waiting List is NOT Access to Health Care"

I'm pretty sure I've see YOU saying that Obama's attack ads work here on C-D before.

Umm... I don't think I did. Maybe I have said that Obama's attacking of Mitt Romney on his taxes thing is working, but I don't have a tv, so I don't actually watch any of these ads. I know that when I'm at someone's house and political ads come on I just sort of tune them out no matter which side they're on.

So eager is lifelike talking-points robot Stephanie Cutter to keep the campaign’s fingerprints off the cheap lies in the PAC ad that she claims at 4:00 in the video not to know the facts about when Soptic’s wife got sick or when she died.

Minor problem: The campaign itself featured Soptic in not one but two ads several months ago and had him tell the story of his wife’s death after he lost his insurance during a conference call with — ta da — Stephanie Cutter.

CNN VIDEO


Exit quotation lie via Obama campaign spokesman Jen Psaki: “[W]e don’t have any knowledge of the story of the family.”

How EMBARRASSING!!!
As well as illegal.
