Your tax dollars to … another ad campaign to tout Obamacare

(By Tina Korbe, Hot Air) - Remember those taxpayer-funded commercials with kindly Andy Griffith — the ones that promoted the ways the so-unaptly-titled Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act supposedly strengthens Medicare? They weren’t the last campaign of their kind. The L.A. Times reports:

The Obama administration is kicking off a nationwide ad campaign urging seniors to take advantage of free preventive services such as cancer screenings made possible in Medicare by the new healthcare law.

The campaign — featuring television and radio ads in English and Spanish … — comes on the heels of a new report showing that less than one in six Medicare beneficiaries have taken advantage of the new benefit since President Obama signed the law last year.
