Watch a Doctor Destroy a Koch Brother-Funded Anti-Obamacare Ad in 2 Minutes

http://occupydemocrats.com/watch-a-doctor-destroy-a-koch-brother-funded-anti-obamacare-ad-in-2-minutes/


Last week, the Koch brother-funded illegal nonprofit, Americans for Prosperity, launched an indefensible million dollar ad campaign intended to spread misinformation about the Affordable Care Act, better known as “Obamacare.”

Their first campaign ad, titled “Questions”, was released early last week and was packed with lies and deceit designed to scare Americans about the much needed and long-awaited health reform.

I would list all of the deceitful claims here, but I will let our trusty pediatrician, Dr. Sanjeev Sriram, eviscerate every Koch-produced lie one by one in a response video titled “Answers” from the National Physicians Alliance and Americans United for Change (BELOW), shattering very false narrative with informative truth and facts regarding “Obamacare”. It’s imperative that every American sees this video, lest we allow these corporatist billionaires to capture the public narrative and scare Americans into not embracing a program that will be beneficial to their health, not to mention their bank accounts.

While the Koch brothers are counting on their shameless campaign in order to spread misinformation about this important reform that will improve access and quality of care for tens of millions of Americans, it is up to every informed American to spread the facts about Pres. Obama’s signature achievement.

THIS is what needs to be playing in the ads during the 7 o'clock news - plus all of the cable news sources - including FAUX!

I want to see more of this. Let people like the Kochs make their dishonest commercials, then micro-destroy them with facts, piece by piece.
