CBS to air White House Medicare "PSA"

[DODI]

Just got a note from MoveOn. CBS plans to run the commercial touting the wonderful new Medicare benefits. Time to call CBS again. Let MoveOn know if you did. I don't see anything on their web site yet.

1. They are already running it. Lies start to finish.

Couldn't get thru on the comment line.

I think NPR mentioned that this propoganda is costing US (the Taxpayer) $10 Million.

3. It's NOT a PSA - it's a commercial

and it was bought and paid for by $12.6 million of our hard earned dollars.

4. ran last night

They've been running MoveOn's Medicare message from GW nightly. Surprised it took them this long to counter it.

The "PSA" is so sickening, just like Bu$h. Gee Gertie now you can get an even better colostomy bag at Medicare's expense...(not in actual commercial }( )

6. It's disgusting that our tax dollars are going to propoganda.

It's taking MoveOn.org months to try to raise $10 million.

Meanwhile, George W. Bush has taken $12.6 million from our taxes and he's using it for re-election propoganda on the Medicare bill.
