At first I thought this was a joke, a parody. But it’s real.
As part of it “ingenius” marketing, a coalition of progressive groups has started a Thanks Obamacare website and Twitter account.
The Colorado affiliate has produced the ads imaged above.
This is Obamacare on drugs. They should tax the keg as a medical device, and then see how much the Bros love their Obamacare.
Here’s the full set of ads, most of which encourage dangerous behavior because, hell, they’ve got Obamacare:
Here are some of the individual ads, with my commentary:
Now you have to subsidize my dangerous lifestyle, suckers http://t.co/yKrCzrnAez #ThanksObamacare http://t.co/4Sl4t3NUIk

To make this a parody, change the title to “Three Trillion Dollars, and all we got was this lousy Brochurance”.
Given the website “glitches”, we can’t actually by insurance, but have to settle for the brochures…
‘Got Milk’?
It’s working.
Look how the Conservative blogosphere is spreading this all over.
Think “Miley Cyrus.” It is cr*p, the website is cr*p, but now it’s all everyone is talking about, because of these outrageous ads – sharing these ridiculous ads, spreading the word, getting their FALSE message out for “free”.
That’s what marketing is all about, isn’t it?
Now you have to subsidize my dangerous lifestyle, suckers
For a while, yes.
But the government will be along momentarily to tell him you don’t need to do that. Keg stands? you don’t need to do that, either. Riding your bike, having risky sexual relations? you don’t need to do that.
Only a matter of time until birth control is mandatory, and you have to seek permission to have offspring.
They’ll be able to interfer in your life in ways you haven’t thought of just yet. At some point, they’ll issue an EBT-like card that will allow or disallow food purchases, based on the government’s food pyramid.
It has all to do with control, and not so much about actual health.
“Only a matter of time until birth control is mandatory, and you have to seek permission to have offspring.”
And yet, abortion coverage – and their attendant premiums – will still be required, even for men.
It’s ALWAYS been about control. That’s all it’s EVER about.
I’ve been thinking that for years. Eventually the number of smokers and fatties (me included) will decline and they’ll need a new group to demonize. People more likely to need orthopedic and physical therapy will soon be in the cross hairs. They’ll be labeled as “high risk” lifestyles instead of healthy, outdoor recreation.
That should read…
When my baby is sick, my first question is “What’s my doctor’s number?” not “Can I afford a doctor?”
Hey, government of idiots that steals my money for this nonsense…
Next time, try some quotation marks, questions marks and capital letters when inserting questions into a remark. You’d be surprised how effective it can be.
They have the power to spy on me, tax me and imprison me, and they have the knowledge of eight-year-olds.
The new America head-of-family female.
Doesn’t know the doctor’s number.
Doesn’t know the daddy’s number.
Doesn’t know who daddy is.
Why don’t they depict all of Obamacare’s benefits? Sacrificial rites are an integral aspect of Obamacare and the progressive cult.
Also, why claim assistance which is already available?
There is no evidence that any of these people cannot afford basic necessities, including medical care. How do we know that they do not first expend their discretionary income on luxury goods, while purchasing their basic needs with welfare (i.e. redistributive change)?
Are any of these characters concerned that the total cost of medical care, including the differential, are increasing? Do they care that health insurance is not equivalent to medical care?
Finally, why is it that Obamacare would fail in Detroit, while surviving with life support nationally?
It’s sick how many people I see complaining about how expensive it is to raise their kids… and the complainers are sporting many huge tattoos.
Yup. Their kid needed dental care, buuuuut… let’s go get another flaming skull on the leg instead.
Poverty is all about priorities and maturity.
Blacks are the forgotten people – non here.

How about “got a job?”
Obama et al have turned our country into a caricature.
I’m surprised they haven’t pulled out a pic of Christopher Reeve in steeple chase gear. Wasn’t the paralyzed, worse superman ever, their first poster child for universal healthcare?Nothing gets my sympathy less than bitching that your health insurance quit paying at a mil when I’m sure you didn’t bother to tell them that you take stupid risks for fun.
OK. Have a Brosurance yuk. But what about the $200 trillion national unfunded liability you obamababies are gonna be liable for?
Check your priorities, obamababies. (Not preaching to the LI Choir.)
I’m going to scram “sexismmmmm!!!!!” How come all men in this ad are doing something “fun” and active, but women (and ugly ones, at that) are saddled with children?
They forgot to do ads promoting cave diving, dueling, and autoerotic asphixiation.
I must say, for a party/ideology so focused on “diversity” and decrying raaaaacism at EVERY turn, they show their bias pretty clearly here…..
What?! All are white males (and 1 white female) in every ad – EXCEPT the Latino single mom?!?!
Raaaaacists! Bigots!! War on women!!! H8ers!!! Where are the cries condemning these ads?! Diversity police!! PC police!!! Where are you?!?!
…..*crickets*…….
Maybe they target mostly whites because of the “money factor”….(assuming white people have more money than minorities)? Nah, that would be RAAAAACISM beyond the pale…..hmmmm………..
An Health plan that has F**KYO for the Obamacare phone number and DOYOUGOTINSURANCE.COM as its website is not one I would trust with my life or the lives of loved ones.
This administration is insane, irresponsible and lawless.
They do not respect the laws of G-D or man.
The spending is obscene – 3.7 TRILLION DOLLARS on benefits in the 5 years Obama has been in office.
90+ Million Americans out of the Job Market.
People hired to RECRUIT people for food stamps.
Who is paying the bills, balancing the budget?
No one.
The leftists seem to consider self-control, limited spending and paying off the debt terrorism.
