OBAMA.....HANKS......PROPAGANDA FILM TOGETHER......

An Obama propaganda film, narrated by actor Tom Hanks, casts the president, not surprisingly, in the best light. But the 17-minute video doesn't tell the whole truth with some facts, and misleads the sheeople on health care and the auto bailout:

• The film says “17 million kids could no longer be denied for preexisting conditions,” implying all of them were being denied care before the federal health care law was passed. 

 The 17 million figure represents what Obama and his people estimate is the total number of children, under 18, in the country who HAVE some condition that could, potentially, cause them to be denied coverage.  Most of these already have coverage.  But to listen to the propaganda video, 17 million kids would be denied insurance, immediately.......NOT TRUE

• It also implies that Obama has reined in the costs of health care premiums — which “had been rising three times the rate of inflation,” as the film says. But the law hasn’t reined in premiums, which still rose three times more than inflation last year. In fact, experts say some of the recent growth was caused by the law, which requires more generous coverage.

Since 2003 the inflation rate has been dropping for insurance.  It was about 3-times the inflation rate back in 2002-2003 (could that have been because of 9-11).  But since then it had dropped to 5% from 2007 - 2009 when the inflation rate was 2 -3%.  So insurance wasn't 3-times the inflation rate as the propaganda film implies.  But from 2010 - 2011 it shot up from a 3% increase to a 9% increase in 2011, when the inflation rate was 1% in 2010, and 2% in 2011.  So by 2010 it climbed back to the "3-times the rate of inflation" claim.  But what happened in 2010.....OBAMA-CARE was forced on the people.  So for the film to say that Obama-care would reign in insurance cost, doesn't appear to be true......

• The auto bailout giveaway, the video says the automakers have “repaid their loans.” 

 But taxpayers still have not been paid for half of the $80 billion in federal aid. It also suggests that Bush gave away $13 billion to auto companies without demanding action on their part.  Well, Bush required them to come up with an economic viability plan by March 31, 2009.

So how is Obama getting away with this kind of propaganda???  He has nobody in the main stream media fact-checking his claims......
