So an entire summer of pissed off protesting wasn’t enough to get the point across… now supporters of Barry’s health care program–deserving of a death panel in its own right–are asking folks like you and me (well maybe not me) to submit 30 second videos to barackobama.com detailing why you support health care reform for their “Health Reform Video Challenge”.

So what do they want you to talk about? They tell you!

•  Personal stories: It’s hard to get more powerful than sharing a personal story about how the broken status quo has affected you and the ones you love.

•  The cost of inaction: There’s lots to cover about how spiraling costs are breaking the budgets of families, governments and businesses, and the high price we’ll all pay if we don’t act.

•  The opponents of reform: It’s amazing the levels some will stoop in order to score political points or protect their profits. This is your chance to call them out.

Man, nothing makes me want to call my representatives and tell them to mushroom the nation’s defect like a 30 second video from Penny Prius telling me a story about how her grandma died. Didn’t realize that appeals to emotion were logical forms of argument.

BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE!

Thats right, folks there are fabulous prizes involved with this contest!

According to the official rules:

One winner will receive the following prize: all or part of the winner’s video may be used in a TV ad associated with DNC’s health reform campaign (approximate retail value: $0).

(emphasis added)

So… you get a prize worth ZERO dollars and the entire nation gets to see you on television calling people out for stooping “in order to score political points”, while the DNC trots you out to… score political points. And you would have consented to having your image and likeness broadcast on television for the purpose of… scoring political points.

Here’s a Harrington Report Top Tip: When recording your video, make sure your camera is positioned correctly so the DNC will be able to clearly see you and your moral high horse in the shot.
