5/2/14, "Celebrities, athletes swarm White House for ObamaCare party," The Hill, Justin Sink
"Celebrities, athletes, healthcare advocates and liberal activists
gathered Thursday night at the White House to celebrate the release of
final data from the first ObamaCare open enrollment period.
According to data released by the administration, a surge
of 3.8 million consumers in the final weeks helped push the total
enrollment numbers past 8 million — above initial projections for the
law.
The party, which according to Time
magazine drew about 300 people, came ahead of the weekend festivities
for the White House Correspondents' Association dinner and was able to
draw Hollywood figures like "Nashville" star Connie Britton and actor
and former White House official Kal Penn.
University of North Carolina
men’s basketball coach Roy Williams, former NFL player Eddie George and
University of Connecticut women’s basketball coach Geno Auriemma also
enjoyed the champagne-fueled party.
Celebrities and athletes were a
key part of the final push for ObamaCare. According to the White House,
celebrity advocates conducted interviews reaching roughly 400 radio
stations nationwide in the final month of enrollment.
Celebrity
tweets reached nearly 350 million followers, and stars including Zach
Braff, Donald Faison, Eva Longoria, Zach Galifianakis, Olivia Wilde,
Jennifer Hudson, Adam Scott, and Elizabeth Banks created YouTube videos
to promote enrollment."

Comment: Thanks again to the Establishment Republicans for making all this possible. Especially thanks to the poisonous Bush family, McCain, Romney and their entire ridiculous families.
