On a conference call with reportedly hundreds of thousands of followers last week, President Obama encouraged supporters to talk about the Affordable Care Act at holiday parties. Two days later, OFA posted a four-step program for talking about health insurance with family members over the holidays. OFA even posted a creepy video encouraging parents to have “the talk” (about health insurance) with their children this holiday season. In short, the president really, really wants families talking about Obamacare (in a good way, that is).
You’re welcome to click the link above to review OFA’s official list of Obamacare talking points for family gatherings (yes, it’s real), but we like these #OFAThanksgivingTalkingPoints better.
Make sure your family knows the turkey was killed for not having health insurance, and they could be next. #OFAThanksgivingTalkingPoints
