Valerie Jarrett's in Hollywood - trying to get ObamaCare inserted into movie and TV scripts

This week, Valerie Jarrett has ventured into the uncharted waters of ...Hollywood. It's a place where a liberal President like Barack Obama almost never goes. At least, that's what the talking heads on a web show called Top That! at PopSugar.com would like you to believe.

The host (who appears to be a peroxide blonde version of the cocoa-drinking pajama boy from the ObamaCare ads) interviewed Jarrett and asked the following: "You've been reaching out to people that are, you know, outside of the norm of what the president might work with. Who else are you working with? Like celebrities, personalities, things like that?" I know, I know. For Obama, dealing with Hollywood is the norm. Reaching out to politicians - particularly those of the opposing party? That’s outside the norm. But let's set that aside for now. We know it. They don't. Moving on...

Jarrett answered:

"You name it. That's part of why I'm in L.A. I'm meeting with writers of various TV shows and movies to try to get it into the scripts."

The "it" she's referring to is, of course, ObamaCare. Jarrett is on what amounts to a propaganda mission. The hope is that we'll soon see positive mentions of the ACA inserted into our favorite shows and movies. Imagine the cast of NCIS looking at a body, lamenting the fact that it would be alive - if only they'd had ObamaCare.

"We're talking to celebrities. We're talking to athletes, because obviously they get injured a lot and many of them are the same age as the market we're going after. And what they can say is, 'Look, you never know when life is going to throw you a curve ball. You're walking down the street, you're a little clumsy, you trip, you fall -- where do you end up? Emergency room. A couple grand just to walk in the door. Who can afford that?"

"Nobody," answered the host. So remember, the next time you're watching Game of Thrones, and the Lannisters say they have to get covered "because a Lannister always pays his medical debts," you have Valerie Jarrett to thank. Oh, OK, fine. I wasn't going to, but I'll do it. "If ObamaCare is so popular and worthwhile, why does it take so much propaganda to convince people of its greatness?" Happy now?
