Boy, Obamacare sure is great, isn’t it? The White House has been trying to tell us that for ages, and with NPR’s help, maybe we’ll finally be convinced.

In a recent episode of “All Things Considered,” NPR’s Nate Rott talked with some people who lacked health insurance before they “enrolled” in Obamacare. Amanda Shelley is one of those people:

Isn’t that nice. Dan Simas, deputy senior adviser for communications and strategy at the White House, couldn’t wait to pimp the story:

Here’s the thing, though: Amanda Shelley isn’t just your everyday woman on the street. She’s a dedicated cheerleader for Obama and the Democrats. How dedicated? Well, her Twitter feed, which dates back to September 2012, consists of a grand total of 31 tweets. And all but two of those tweets promote Democrats, the 2012 DNC, Dem organizations, Dem hashtags, and, of course, Barack Obama:

So, a huge Obama fan is also a champion of Obamacare. Who’d’a thunk it?

Here’s a tip, NPR: If you’d like to be taken seriously as anything other than a propaganda arm for the Dems, at least make an effort to vet your sources a little more carefully, mkay?
