Obama Administration Using Taxpayers To Fund Healthcare Campaign, Watchdog Group Claims

April 14, 2011 by  

Obama administration using taxpayers to fund healthcare campaign, watchdog group claimsPresident Barack Obama plans to spend as much as $200 million worth of taxpayer money to promote his controversial healthcare law, according to documents recovered by public interest group Judicial Watch.

The records, which were obtained through a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit, detail the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) multimedia campaign to promote the Affordable HealthCare Act and other HHS initiatives. Last November, Judicial Watch obtained documents revealing that the Obama administration spent more than $3 million in taxpayer funds to air national advertisements regarding Medicare and the healthcare overhaul.

Group president Tom Fitton said that these documents are troubling, considering the talk on Capitol Hill regarding the need to reduce wasteful government spending. Instead of using hundreds of millions of dollars worth of taxpayer money to fund critical government services, Fitton said the President is trying to get a leg-up in his re-election campaign by bombarding Americans with "misleading messages."

"There is nothing educational about this Obamacare propaganda campaign to force 'behavioral changes' on Americans," said Fitton. "These records prove the administration is using taxpayer dollars to manipulate public opinion."

    Bud,
    It`s even worse in England and France and even Germany has their
    problems. Has anyone noticed, a lot of the problems we are having to-day are from the immagrants from third world countries. They want to
    come to your country and live the same way as they did in theirs, I
    say to all countries with this problem,is to gather them all up and send them back to where they came from. If this isn`t done,we are going to have bigger problems in the future. If they don`t have the same morals and standards we have, they need to be in a country that is more like them.Everybody would be a lot happier. Trying to put
    different people with different needs has not worked and never will.
    The Muslims have came to our country and have tryed to change what
    goes on in our schools,churches,and even our laws. This can`t happen
    and shouldn`t happen. The Mexicans the same thing, they fly the Mexican flag over ours and want us to speak Spanish in our schools.
    They want to come to this country because it is so great. Let them stay in their own country and make it a great place to live. Send
    all the illigals back to their home,I don`t care how long it takes.
    Also, close the loopholes for them comming here to begin with.Make it a death wish to try and sneak across the border.This would stop it in a hurry.Something drestic has to be done unless us Americans want to be called The United States Of Mexico. They have already passed up the black race in numbers.

    45 caliber,
    Whats going to happen to the 38 billion that we are going to
    save? I understand it`s been lowered to 3 billion or less. Maybe this is where Obama is getting his 1 billion for his campaign. As far as him being worth over a billion dollars,you know, there is no way for
    anybody keeping track of a trillion dollars in stimulas money. A few
    billion lost here and there, would never be missed and probley
    couldn`t be found or traced to where it went. You can`t have that
    much money plus all the other billions floating around and keep track of it. I just wonder, how much money has been stolen under the
    Obama White House.

  • Janice Fortin

    This White House has been spending $$$ like there’s no tomorrow. In fact, there seeems to be NO LAW ruling any of their activities. PARACHUTING LAWS TO CITIZENS WHETHER THEY WANT THEM OR NOT…..IS SIMPLY NOT THE AMERICAN WAY…..and we certainly hope VOTERS WILL REMEMBER THEIR IRRESPONSIBILITY WHEN THEY VOTE! No accountability is shown in this administration whatsoever. If Social Security was ret’d to status of UNTOUCHABLE, there would be NO social security problem. BALANCING THE BUDGET SHOULD BE ADDED AS A LAW TO THIS CONSTITUTION. Throwing hardearned $ to worthless earmarks should be outlawed. America is spending $$$ in Iraq and they want to be PRO IRAN? America has been 8 yrs in Afghanistan, but still an 18 yr old wife’s nose and ears are cut off! No American influence on their barbaric customs in 8 yrs. What do think will happen to America if these barbarians are imported to USA? Sobbing unconsolably in court that they are “blame free”? WHAT AN ACT! Any member of the UK can tell you they never believed they’d see the day of SHARIA LAW IN UK.
    IT’S THERE~! We need a government that is committed to the AMERICAN CULTURE instead of this ridiculous “sophistacation” that acts as if it is INFERIOR instead of the advanced and desirable culture that it is. Part of the American culture is not the few working to supply the lazy many who get imported and invade this country illegally.
    America didn’t get rich by outsourcing or being watered down to 3rd world status. It didn’t achieve a proud and strong status on this planet by burning or defacing its own flag or allowing anyone else to do so without respect or gratitude. Congress and the administration must become fiscally responsbile like spending $ and not getting your $’s worth….paying $2 million annually for transportation?! I don’t see that is $ well spent.

    • Bud Tugly

      Well said.

      Many Muslims take advantage of the freedoms found here to undermine us. Anyone who wants Sharia law should move to a country where it is practiced and stay away from the US.

      Check out what is going on in Italy with the Muslims… and the Netherlands. It is disgraceful. They demand special treatment but make no attempt to respect and live by the customs of the countries they move to.

      Western countries should be more stringent in issuing visas… especially the USA.

      A lot of this is conjecture but I love it!

        45, I don’t think this is conjecture at all. In fact, it follows exactly what investigators have been turning up for the past couple of years.

      • Average Joe

        Kate8,
        Agreed!

  • http://libertydigest ira l.

    No big deal. even if there is a way to stop using our money to promote a legislation that was shoved down our throats, he can always fall back on the slush fund created by a phoney stimulus package. I’m still waiting to see the shovel, let alone the shovel ready jobs.

  • Jennifer

    Idea for the tea party: don’t allow those on the tax payroll to pay taxes. This will do 2 things:
    1. less money rolling through federal / state / county / city coffers
    2. They are no longer tax payers, and don’t have a voice.

    • 45caliber

      It would hurt the states and local groups but not the feds. They print whatever money they want. The tax money either goes into someone’s pocket (as grants, etc) or it is spent to insure reelection of those who control it.

      • Average Joe

        45caliber,
        That’s why I have always advocated changing things on the local and state levels so that nothing goes to the feds….and they are completely cut off from the rest of the nation. It isn’t that states need to withdraw from the Union of States…the states need to kick DC to the curb..wall them in and make them pay severely for any supplies etc. that “they” need…BTW, we only accept gold and silver in payment for those supplies….if they wish to leave DC and return to America…it will be very costly, so much so…that none of these “RATS” can afford to enter “OUR NATION”!!!!!! “Let them eat….each other”.

  • Carol

    This man is slick he knows how to steal from people with a smile on his face as he did to the people who voted for him and he didn’t do that to me because I knew all about him way before he got even close to Our White House.

    • 45caliber

      Kickbacks and bribes have always been illegal. But … if they give you their money as campaign contributions then it is okay.

      I’ve read recently that thanks to several deals such as the billions to Brazil for their oil, Oblama is now worth over a billion himself. Just a few shares of stock between friends …

    • Dee

      I just wish these people would have listened to obummer to what he wanted to do to this country. All they heard was that they were going to get free health care. Well, it “ain’t” going to be free.
      I listened to him and I didn’t vote for him and never will.
      I just hope the legal voting people have enough sense not to vote for him.

      • Matt Newell

        Unfortunately there are too many illegal voters who are now voting, so my guess is that he will win in a landslide. Kind of like what happened in California — thinking people are outscored by illegals and government does nothing about it.

  • 45caliber

    No! Tell me it isn’t so! A politician using taxpayer money to convince taxpayers he is worth voting for? Surely not!

    (sarcasm off)

  • BigBadJohn

    200 million – peanuts compared to the 600 million that republicans used to investigate Clinton for six years – all because they hoped it would get them reelected..

    Or peanuts compared to the 10 billion in cash that Bush gave away to his private army in Iraq.

    or peanuts compared to the announced loss of 12 billion on 9/10/2001.

    and most of you think the democrats are worse than the republicans on wasting money – pull your head out of the sand!

    • JUKEBOX

      Yeah John, it’s also peanuts compared to the Billion dollars that the Annointed One spends to take his family on one of his “WORKING VACATIONS”. Every trip he takes is just another re-election campaign stop, that is being paid for by the taxpayers, who are apparently too stupid to realize it. Have you ever heard of MASS HYPNOTISM? If you don’t believe it, just look at the pictures of Biden and the people behind him at yesterday’s speech by Obama.

        Q: Has President Obama taken more vacation time than his predecessors?

        A: According to one count, Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush spent more time on “vacation” during their first year than President Obama did. Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton spent less time on “vacation.”

    • 45caliber

      BBJ

      If you really knew much about Clinton, you’d know that it was a shame he wasn’t convicted. But then, when the witnesses for many of his acts kept getting killed, like Foster, how could they get him?

      • Bud Tugly

        The Dems are foolish and the Republicans are trying to ram through a disgraceful budget that would destroy Medicare, drive an entire generation of seniors into poverty, but give the wealthiest Americans even more tax cuts.

        Both parties are focused on keeping themselves in power by twisting fact to appeal to their bases. The Libertarians seems more forthright.

      • Carlucci

        They are all awful and they’ve all got to go (but not the Pauls). We need to clean house and take out the trash.

    • Average Joe

      BigBadJohn,

      “or peanuts compared to the announced loss of 12 billion on 9/10/2001.”

      Actually, on that date, Donald Rumsfeld announced that the military industrial complex (con…plex?) could not account for 2 trillion dollars in US taxpayer funding..of course that was the last time we’ve heard anything about the missing funds…since the very next day, the nation was plunged into turmoil and the story convieniently went away never to be mentioned again by the Lamestream Media and was forgotten…by most (but not all) of the people.

      Next, there is the question of what happened to the gold ( approx. $600 billion) that was stored in vaults in the basement of the World Trade Center. Are we to believe that the building collapse (not by exlosives according to the official report by the 911 commission) the the gold just magically “vaporized”?…Just like the plane that supposedly hit the Pentagon….magically vaporized…leaving absolutely no trace of a plane, bodies,luggage etc….Too many “first time ever” events happened on that day…steel buildings that collapsed due to fire…(a first in all of history), yet 3 buildings did just that and one of them,(building 7) didn’t even get hit by the planes. The increases in put options Approx. 600% increase over normal trading) on both Airlines involved…starting about a month before 911…And then there is Silverstien, who had leased the WTC just 6 months before, who managed to get the courts to double the insurance payout because he claimed that they were two separate attacks that day, on each building…..”As the old saying goes…”Follow the money”.

  • Raggs

    Was this included in the so-called law when it was past?.. probably.
    Just like the 105 billion dollars that were buried in it to fund it.
    Has anyone even read the damm thing yet? I doubt it…
    And sence nobody has read the damm thing it sure will be easy to add a few billions into it that no one will ever know about…

  • Kris

    Congress controls all the spending and they should block this. I don’t know where this money is coming from, maybe it’s part of Hussain’s “stash”! This jackass will never get it, WE DON’T WANT HIS DEATHCARE BILL! I will not accept anything that gives me the death penalty without a trial! That’s what this is, a plan to murder all senior citizens and disabled. It’s part of Hussain’s plan to “change” this country from a free country to a dictatorship! When will people wake up!

    • 45caliber

      You don’t understand. The elderly (including me) have retired. They no longer pay taxes (as least as much) and instead they draw money from the government (SS) that the politicians can better use to be reelected. Therefore it is good for the country (them anyway) if all these old people would just shuffle off and leave all their money to the politicians. Both the SS money and the money that the elderly had saved to give their children. (Why do you believe the Dems want the death taxes returned so much? If isn’t fair if your kids get all that free money they didn’t work for!)

      It now time for them to play kissie face with the Lobbyist from these very Insurance Companys so they can get some of that $$$$$$$$$$ That the demO have been playing with.

      Saddly – Barry Care is here to stay, as far as all the Freaks of nature in DC feel about you, {your little more than pond scum} it makes no differance if they are DummieHO’s or RebuttHO’s, they are all the bloody same.

      Last Friday they displayed that so clearly to you all that its beyond absurd.
      Vote in 2012 or not if the partys are not cleaned out and replaced by persons who will do the job of being your VOICE, its all over within 10 months after the November 2012 elections.

      What that means to YOU is that if the same RebO’s get back in and the same DemO’s get back in, we are all TOAST.

        The CBO revealed yesterday that the $38 billion in “CUTS” will boil down to an actual savings of $320 million. WOW, I am so unimpressed by these HISTORIC cuts.

      • 45caliber

        True. They don’t pay taxes. But they DO get all the “freebes” the government uses to buy their votes. Like additional welfare raises, free medical care, free schools, free lunches, free vacinations, etc. So they are more than willing to vote for those who give them things.

        Not long ago I overheard a black janitor talking to several others. “Be sure to vote Democrat,” she said. “The GOP never gives us anything but the Democrats always give us new stuff.”

        You are correct. And the one thing they don’t seem to understand is that under socialism or Communism, there are NO people who sit at home taking it easy on someone else’s money. All are assigned a job or sent to a cencentration camp. Germany used incinerators to get rid of those they didn’t like. Russia used Siberia. (And trust me, a 100 below zero is COLD!) If our government does get away with becoming socialist, they are the first ones to go.

      How is it that, after having at least two courts rule against him, he doesn’t have to cease and desist until it’s resolved? HE JUST IGNORES THEM. AND GETS AWAY WITH IT. WTH ever happened to the rule of law?

      I also read that, after Congress passes an ‘ACT’, the people have 60 days to raise opposition before it is ‘deemed’ law. Well, there has been huge opposition. Yet, he continues forth despite the loud outcry from the people.

      He makes it clear that he has ZERO regard for the will of the people. It’s all about HIM. He’s a legend in his own mind.

      BTW, I just heard where he’s calling for ‘sacrifice’ on our part during these difficult times.

      I want to know how he, and the rest of those livin’ large on our dime, are going to ‘sacrifice’.

      Of course, the answer is, they won’t. They’ll keep squeezing us while they fill their coffers. They have only contempt for the ‘little people’.

        What amazes me is Congress. They have the power to decide and do anything – but all they have done is give him whatever he asks for.

        And keep in mind that YOU are paying for all his parties (with big name stars attending and performing), his golf, his vacations, his world travel (where he works five minutes and then spends the rest of the time sight seeing or golfing), etc. And his wife gets to have designer dresses to do it all in.

      • Kate8

        45 – I hate to tell you, but Congress has been rendered irrelevant, just as was done in Canada.

        They work for the corporate banksters, not us. Their strings are pulled by the elite. They’ve sold us out for money.

        We expect our leaders to somehow be better than humanity in general, but they aren’t. They are seduced by the promise of wealth and power, and to be above the things which befall the masses. And despite what Slick Willy claimed, they do NOT feel our pain. They don’t even CARE about our pain. In fact, they work hard to CAUSE us more pain.

        Have you heard the latest? Obama saying that, if this “budget cut” (gag) doesn’t work, they’ll have to go “over Congress” and raise taxes. WHAT? What more indication do you need than to have them say straight out that they will take power away from Congress to raise taxes? Doesn’t that tell you that power has already been usurped from Congress?

        Don’t forget that passing O’care was an exercise in gangster arm-twisting. They were FORCED to turn a deaf ear to the people and to do the bidding of their masters.

      • 45caliber

        No, I hadn’t heard that about taxes. But it doesn’t surprise me. Oblama and friends seem to be under the belief that they are the government and the rest of us have to do as they say – or else.

MEDICARE PAPERWORK SINCE THE PASSAGE OF THE MEDICARE REFORM ACT IN THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION HAS SKYROCKETED. ALSO THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT THAT IS BEING REFERRED TO HERE ALSO HAS APPROPRIATIONS FOR FIGHTING MEDICARE FRAUD AND ALREADY THE SAVINGS THERE PAYS FOR THIS. FACTS CLEARLY IGNORED HERE!

    This would shock anyone why?

    For you that love the HCR are you aware of the fact that the very people you seem to hate so much, you know that {TOP 2% or 5% } as you all can’t seem to make up your minds how many there are.
    Well guess what?

    They will be getting a free ride on this as in they will be getting paid by YOU from this special law. In plain words you will be paying for them to have far better care than you could ever hope for, but thats just one point. The second is, they own the very Insurance Companys that YOU now must by law pay them, and YOU will pay one way or the other.
    You know its kind of like the Mafia, you pay them for protection aka Insurance that nothing happens to you.

    But hey I bet your still thinking its all FREE, and after all well “its change that YOU can believe in” now just how happy are YOU?

    Or is it your just to bloody stupid and lazy to grasp that your nothing but a tool being used by the very people you claim you so dispise.

        These mines are in a remote canyon, difficult to get into, where few ever tread. The cabins are steep hillsides. But their claims are being revoked.

        Have you heard anything?

        Back when Carter was in office, he signed 96% of the state of Alaska into federal lands that cannot be accessed and used EXCEPT by a native Eskimo or Indian of Alaska ONLY. It doesn’t matter if you are tenth generation anything else. One of the requirements (not a suggestion) is that if you discover some profitable item, such as gold, it MUST belong to the government (if an Eskimo isn’t involved, of course.) You MUST report it’s location to the government who will then take action to sell it to the most deserving company or group to develop it.

        This isn’t any different from what I can tell. They simply want whatever someone else found and developed.

        Dan az – Does it take effect right away? Because the last I heard these laws won’t be in effect until AFTER 2012.

      There are three words that describe the HCR and the Pelosi, Reid, Obama Cartel: Duplicitous, Mendacious, and Socialist. This man did not tell the truth on his personal census form, where he listed himself and his daughters as “BLACK”, while he had the truthful option of “BIRACIAL”. If he signed this form under the threat of perjury, what else will he lie about, EVERYTHING?
