A White House tweet encouraging individuals to enroll in President Barack Obama's signature health care program appeared to backfire Thursday afternoon.
The official White House account sent out a tweet in the early afternoon with the president holding a sign reading, "#GetCovered because nobody should go broke just because they get sick."
Within minutes users employed Photoshop to parody the tweet.
Here Are the Tweets:
