Teabaggers should learn how to spell check.....Yes, it must be a 'CONSIRACY'.....
Crooks & Liars:
As I've written many times, conservatives will create any lie as long as it helps their causes. Here's the latest case in point via Americablog
The thing is, Helene never signed up for the job.
In fact, she told me yesterday that shes quite happy with the Affordable Care Act (ACA), and with the affordable health care it helped her find.
Not only do I not agree with what the image is portraying, Helene wrote me, I actually have Affordable Healthcare!
So, if anything, Helene is an Obamacare success story.
But that didnt stop over 17,000 people on Facebook from sharing an image of her face, posted just days ago, with a caption complaining about Obamacare. To add insult to injury, the people who stole her image couldnt even spell conspiracy right.

The typo says it all about these people, doesn't it? This is indeed a sick and twisted move by conservative ratf*&kers. It's too bad that Helene has been unwittingly used as a tool for tea party propaganda games when all she did was take a selfie after a bad hair day.

I wish she could sue the pants off of these people. If Obamacare is so horrible then why do conservatives have to lie so much about it?

(9,796 posts)Everyone owns the rights to their name and likeness unless they lease it to a third party or it's used for satire (and that only applies to celebrities). Since she isn't a celebrity and this group used her likeness without permission, I'm pretty sure she can sue the pants off them.
