Drug pushers

Ed Frank at Americans for Prosperity takes a look at a new infomercial coming your way:

In the proud tradition of motivational guru Tony Robbins, the Gazelle Freestyle cardio machine, and Question-Mark-Suit-wearing Matthew Lesko, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is hawking a questionable product with its very own cable-tv infomercial this weekend.

No, they're not selling knives that can cut through aluminum cans. They're selling drugs. "Free" prescription drugs, to be exact.

Health and Human Services will air their infomercial on CNBC Saturday night. I'm not sure, but I think I was planning on watching Tuckerville instead.
