Obamacare: The Comic Book -- Really
Watch your back, Justin Bieber -- there's a new craze sweeping America off its feet.  Introducing the Obamacare comic book:

The MIT economics whiz who crafted President Obama’s national health-care overhaul now plans to explain the complex and controversial plan to the masses — in one long comic book.

Jonathan Gruber, a nationally recognized health economist who devised the economic underpinnings of Obamacare (Gruber hates the term), said his three comic-loving kids encouraged him to use the hip format of the graphic novel — basically an expensive comic published in book form — to tell the story of the complicated plan to 300 million Americans.

Now Gruber is breaking down the president’s 2,400-page legislation into illustrated, bite-sized panels for non-wonks who either don’t understand or don’t like the national plan.

Problem solved!



UPDATE:  Rasmussen's latest poll shows Americans' zeal for repeal hasn't dimished, especially among independents.  Cartoons to the rescue.
