Earlier this week, the Obama administration announced a video contest for people to create their own Obamacare promotional materials, and House Speaker John Boehner is getting in on the action.

The speaker’s office created a poster — not a video — Thursday as a potential entry for the contest. It dresses up the conservative talking point about how the health care reform law will cause people to lose their health insurance with a comic book-inspired aesthetic.

The contest asked for short films, music videos or video animations, so no word if Boehner’s entry would be automatically disqualified for failing to follow directions if it were officially submitted.

The poster is below.
