That Didn't Take Long

Tell your relatives this weekend:

Days after President Obama signed the $938 billion bill into law, a cable television advertisement exhorted viewers to call an 800-number so they wouldn't miss a "limited enrollment" period to obtain coverage available "now that historic health-care legislation has passed."

But these are no different than the array of credit consolidation ads that basically dupe people into handing over all of their debt and financial information to a collection agency. The worst one advertises itself as being part of the "stimulus."
