Ridiculous Super PAC Ad of the Moment

Exploring the deepest recesses of election spending

I’d be all about super PACs if all of their ads were this ridiculously entertaining:

Breitbart.com writes:

A health insurance broker, Glenn Morton, has founded a super PAC called “Occupy Obamacare” and begun producing videos that using horror-movie imagery to attack the Affordable Care Act. This video features Herman Cain Struck by Lightning at Tea Party Rally.

Do you feel influenced?

    I’m happy you like the video. Did you watch it with the lights off and the sound up? Were you scared? Muah-ah-ah-ahhhhhh!

    As someone who lost a husband in 2002 from lack of Affordable Healthcare and untreated Diabetes as a result, knowing that his medical expenses while on Medicare Disability those last 2 years (on dialysis) he cost the Fed Gov’t more during those last two years than it would have cost to provide 15 years of type 2 diabetes pills. That would have also kept a hard worker continue to pay in to taxes, medicare & social security longer instead of becoming permenantly, completely disabled at 45 and dead at 47.

    I also work for a Medicare Part D Prescription Plan… Do I ever think twice about supporting President Obama and the Affordable Healthcare Act? Not for a second!! I am NOT willing to take that step backward and refuse to let the AHA be repealed. There does need to be some parts fixed, but never repealed.
