The shot cuts to Will Ferrell.
Will Ferrell: So why is Obama trying to reform health care when insurance companies are doing just fine making billions of dollars of profit.
The shot cuts to Donald Faison.
Donald Faison: Obama why?
The words – Obama why – appear and then fade out. The shot cuts to Linda Cardellini.
Jordana Spiro: Insurance companies need our support because they keep our selfish priorities in check when we can't.
Robert Ben Garant fades in next to Linda Cardellini.

The shot cuts to Jon Hamm.
Jon Hamm: Eighty percent of the American public support the public plan because it would give quality care people can actually afford.
The shot cuts to Thomas Lennon.

The shot cuts to Jordana Spiro.

The shot fades to Linda Cardellini.

The shot fades to Will Ferrell.
Will Ferrell: And a mini-zoo in your back yard for exotic animals like a white tiger and pygmy horses.
The shot fades to Olivia Wilde.
Olivia Wilde: Insurance companies offer you variety.
The shot cuts to Donald Faison.
Donald Faison: They can change the price of your plan at any time or stop covering you altogether.
The shot fades to Jordana Spiro.
Jordana Spiro: Do you want to get rid of those options?
The shot cuts to Will Ferrell.
Will Ferrell: Join us in the fight to protect our insurance company profits. They've looked out for our best interests for so long.
Will Ferrell, Olivia Wilde, Jon Hamm, Donald Faison, Jordana Spiro, Linda Cardellini, Masi Oka, Thomas Lennon, and Robert Ben Garant (in unison): Now we should look out for theirs.
Thomas Lennon: And I'm not being sarcastic. Not at all.

The Propagana and Hypocrisy that comes out of Hollyweird is never suprising. Definately the Granola tinsil town with all the Fruits, Nuts and Glimmer. It's so laughable how "celebrities" speak out out agaist hunger yet show up to events in Limousines. They promote the latest liberal "in" cause because someone promised "lot's of Pub" and receive a one page ... more >

this is when i get pissed. when celebrities jump on the liberal bandwagon and just say stupid shit. The part where the actor who is only famous for being on "scrubs" says a lil kid will pay for health insurance with their allowance? referring to today medical SITUTATIONS? haha what an ASS! under obama-care your 6 year old would be just as covered like he/sh... more >
