Obama sets up thought police in the Whitehouse to report your neighbors.

[LordJezo]

White House has set up a site where you can report directly to Obama if people talk bad about Obamacare:

http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/Facts-Are-Stubborn-Things/

If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.

Now people need to live in fear about sending emails to one another, if it goes against the state it can be forwarded right to the Whitehouse for investigation.

Now people will need to have secret meetings just to talk about Obama in any way but public praise. Totalitarian government in the USA has never been worse than it is right now. This is pretty much thought police at this point. Think badly and say something against the administration? You'll be put on their list for reprogramming. The next step with an email address for forwarded messages would be the same thing but for video and audio recordings of your neighbors and 'friends'.

No. Forwarding e-mails isn't some new, nefarious technology that Obama and co. created and are only letting liberals use. Jezo has to spin this like it's impossible for conservatives to send the same kind of things to their reps in regards to the issues that they are pushing to make it one of his fake conspiracy issues.

The non-insane response to this is, "oh, they want to see what's being said so they can spefically address any of these points if they're not obviously batshit retarded/crazy to help push through health care reform since it's the crux of their agenda right now." If anyone legitimately thinks the government is being provided with information they couldn't get already through this then they are so naive they might as well be tiny, tiny babies fresh out of the verginer.

And please towel down the equipment after you use it.

Because it's a way for people to feel involved in a major policy push and "government" in general. This White House and the Democrats as a whole have been smartly using the internet in the last couple of years to attempt to get people involved with or at least pay more attention to politics. This is simply another part of that. Nobody has to "dime anyone else out:" why not just copy and paste the forward or article or whatever sans personal information? Nowhere is the White House demanding or asking people to "report" anyone else.

And please, explain how this feels like McCarthyism. I can only assume you're talking about people then ratting out other people (usually unjustly or based on heresay) to get focus shifted off of them. How does that apply here? Nothing is being offered. Nobody has to do this. That's a completely disingenous and overractionary take on something so inconsequential.

Do you have an understanding was what McCarthyism is? It's about accusing people of being disloyal to the country and treasonous without having any evidence to back it up. What you're saying is that by forwarding the piece of shit emails that tell people how the government will kill their grandparents, raise your taxes, and force you to rationed healthcare, by forwarding spam like that to the email address they've set up just so they can have an understanding of the wacky shit that's being spread out there and can clear up the misinformation, somehow you think that's McCarthyism?

If you believe that, I'm sure you'll love this. (http://crooksandliars.com/john-amato/rush-limbuagh-sez-democratic-party-are)

Limbaugh: It's right out of Adolf Hitler's playbook. Now, what are the similarities between the Democrat Party today and the Nazi Party in Germany? Well, the Nazis were against big business. They hated big business and of course we all know that they were opposed to Jewish capitalism. They were insanely, irrationally against pollution. They were for two years mandatory voluntary service to Germany. They had a whole bunch of make-work projects to keep people working, one of which was the Autobahn. They were against cruelty and vivisection of animals, but in the radical sense of devaluing human life, they banned smoking. They were totally against that. They were for abortion and euthanasia of the undesirables, as we all know, and they were for cradle-to-grave nationalized healthcare.

You know, when Bush was in office, I didn't like all the "Bush = Nazi" shit, I thought that wa s a bit extreme, and it came from the extreme left. But, when the shoe's on the other foot, the main stream right has no problem spouting crazy shit like Democrats are Nazis and having an email to send spam to is considered McCarthyism (glossing over the fact that McCarthy himself was a Republican).

The Bush administration wouldn't have done this because they made next to no attempts to establish such communication channels with their constituents (tenuous as this one is) and because they never tried to push an agenda with the scope and impact of health care reform. If you're asking hypothetically whether or not the Bush administration would have done something like this with the similar context of the Obama administration, well, that would completely change the face of the Bush administration as compared to what we actually saw. I know all you want are B&W answers and oversimplifications but the long and short of it is that one of the main issues many had with the Bush administration is that they never would have done something like this in the wake of the initiative that is being proposed.

Any similar criticism of Bush doing something like this a la the conspiracy shit we're seeing here would have stayed on the fringe because it's so laughably absurd and anyone who can zap two brain cells together sees that's the case.

It's a completely false comparison to compare the Patriot Act to health care reform. For one, nobody is going to be stupid enough to propose anything along these lines with something along the lines of the Patriot Act. That would be stupid and political suicide. Besides, Bush didn't have to do anything along the lines of your scenario to get people ill at ease because he actually fucking passed the fucking PATRIOT ACT itself which was infinitely closer to the end of days nightmare people are proposing over an e-mail link. Jesus Christ.

There's no need for "blinders" because any hysterical and fringe criticism of the Bush White House doing something like this in the context of how we're seeing it now would be just as ridiculous.

The White House isn't asking or telling anyone to do what you described above. It's incredibly telling that people trying to demonize this have to spin it so much to do so. It's a meaningless interactive PR move that's being added to the already enormous pile of things that have been blown up to signal the death of the United States, democracy, capitalism, liberty, bald eagles, Mt.

The Patriot Act and health care reform are not on the same level. There was no debate on the Patriot Act. The other side wasn't putting false information out there in order to scare people into telling their congressmen to vote nay.

Of course it does.

It couldn't possibly have anything to do with gathering talking points to address that are influencing people's support or opposition to health care reform. It couldn't possibly be an information service where people's questions and concerns based on things they hear regarding health care reform can be addressed or answered. Nope, those things are simply too fantastic and outrageous to be real.

Again, look at my example.

Suppose Bush thought there was a lot of false information out there about the Patriot Act and wanted to set the record straight and "open up a line of communication" with people?

[TheMojoPin]

I didn't say it was "report everyone who is disloyal."

I said imagine if Bush had said to email the White House if they saw anything they thought might not be true about the Patriot Act.

Which would be insane because it would be tied into the Patriot Act.

Do you really not see any difference between the context of that and health care reform?

The Patriot Act wasn't something that needed public and political support to be created.

[The Jays]

I can't suppose it, because the scenario never happened. In 2001, we were sheep. We were scared shitless. There was no debate on the Patriot Act. Bush would have never proposed the email address, because dumbasses would have flooded it with accusations of every brown person they saw with a backpack as being a potential terrorist.

This is about letting the White House know about what kind of bullshit is being spread on the barren minds of American citizens.

[epo]

Gvac you are dead wrong on a number of angles here:

1. The White House is talking about misinformation, not about "evildoers".
2. Bush's White House did just what you are talking about. After 9/11 remember when the federal government was encouraging people to report regular people for "suspicious" behavior? Or how soon you forget?
3. You bitch and moan about corporate interests, then you finally get a White House that sorta has a set of balls fighting corporate interests and they are cocksuckers in your eyes.

I'll never understand your politics.

The White House said to report anything you feel is misinformation so they could set the record straight.

I said what if Bush said to email him if you saw "misinformation" about the Patriot Act.

I said NOTHING about reporting "evildoers."

Please try to be unbiased.

I know it's difficult, but try.

It's not that simple. It all depends on the context and what it's over. You can't just transplant one era or initiative over another and act like everything is the same. There's plenty of ways that this kind of thing from the current White House would be a terrible move. Over health care, no, I don't see how. They're going to, what, open files on people opposed to health care reform? That doesn't seem productive even if they were actually some kind of totalitarian cabal.

[Furtherman]

Gym? What's a gym?





OOOhhh a GYM!

[Gvac]

Over health care, no, I don't see how.

Because it's something YOU agree with and something YOU want.

I can't believe you all can't see how blind you're being.

It's like saying you agree with raping a child if the end result is something you want, but you're against it if it results in something you're against.

Right is right, wrong is wrong.

As I made very clear in the post that you butchered I was pointing out the ridiculousness of how anyone could think some kind of "report your neighbors" conspiracy theory through e-mails in regard to the issue of health care reform made any kind of sense.

This "email us if you see something we don't agree with" is WRONG, no matter how you slice it, and whether we're discussing health care or the price of postage stamps.

Except that's not what was being asked for at all, but whatever. You're trying your damndest to spin this so it can seem nefarious when looking at it rationally shows how any of these theories or critcisms are just so impractical and unrealistic.

It's an attempt to engage the public using the internet, as they've done repeatedly over the last year, and it's an attempt to respond to the criticisms of a major initiative that the administration needs to convince the public of if they want it to pass. One of the best ways to do that is to know what to specifically respond to in statements and documentation provided by the administration.

Bush faced no realistic public opposition to the Patriot Act and it was rushed through Congress.

[TheMojoPin]

Wait...let me guess the responses...

That's not what I said at all.

The political climate for the Patriot Act was vastly different. It had very little resistance in Congress and as such it was not necessary to "sell" it to either party or the public. It was hurried through and passed with very little debate.

[Gvac]

Again, you're missing my point.

You make no sense to me.

The President's job is to sell it to the American people, not to have the people "turn in" others to him so he can counterpunch.

So I ask the following:

1. Do you think misinformation exists in these chain emails and videos?
2. If so, do you think they are a significant problem, as far as the nation discussing health insurance goes?
3. If so, if so... How do you suppose the Obama administration address it?

My answers to the questions are:
1. Yes.
2. Yes.
3. I kinda like handling it directly. "Hey, you're spewing bullshit, here's a direct answer to it".

I bet the reason they are approaching the public to send them the information is to get an idea of which video's/emails have had the most exposure, so they know which they should spend time addressing.

[~Katja~]

I kinda agree that in today's society it is much more a tool to deal with misinformation and and acknowledgment of false fears.

Im not an Obama supporter. To be honest I dont give a fuck about republicans or democrats. As a completely unbiased observer what this sounds like is the White House trying to find out what kind of misinformation about the health care plan may be going around. Maybe so they can address the misinformation and set the record straight.

Kinda like trying to help the stupid sheep that believe everything they read, like, for example, that Obama wasnt born in this country and somehow circumvented the law to become president. Look how many dummys still buy that stupid shit.

I dont see this as a "big brother" type thing at all.

Oh...can somebody spot me?

[Crispy123]

As long as free speach is enforced and people arent persecuted for the words they type on the internet within the accepted framework of the rest of society then I have no problem with the government collecting emails or posts.

[beachbum]

Because it's a way for people to feel involved in a major policy push and "government" in general. This White House and the Democrats as a whole have been smartly using the internet in the last couple of years to attempt to get people involved with or at least pay more attention to politics. This is simply another part of that. Nobody has to "dime anyone else out:" why not just copy and paste the forward or article or whatever sans personal information? Nowhere is the White House demanding or asking people to "report" anyone else.

And please, explain how this feels like McCarthyism. I can only assume you're talking about people then ratting out other people (usually unjustly or based on heresay) to get focus shifted off of them. How does that apply here? Nothing is being offered. Nobody has to do this. That's a completely disingenous and overractionary take on something so inconsequential.

That's NOT what was actually said?

There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. (http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/Facts-Are-Stubborn-Things/) These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.

Awwww, damn. There goes THAT one.

Yeah, the ACLU should get going based on those completely made up and nonexistent situations you just dropped on us.

Do you honestly think that what you put in quotation marks above is what was actually said? Go to the link I provded. The whole thing was clearly posted in the context of a blog post talking about responding to the made up facts and alarmist hype around the proposed health care reform.

I do not know if I can do it anymore. The people in this country are more and more siding with insanity and lies instead of using common sense and trying to get positive change in America. People would rather do what Fox News and talk radio says than to get anything fixed in this country. They believe crazy fucking shit like old people will be killed. How can I combat crazy fucking retards with reason?

Took you that long huh?

Political party supporters have turned into sports fanatic types. They dont care what their party does. If it will help or hurt this country. All they care about is being able to say "YEA! My party won the last election. That somehow makes me better then you. Eat that!"

[TripleSkeet]

Seriously?? "If anyone disagrees with our program or sends around an email contrary to what we say, report them."

I'm beginning to think people don't understand the term fascism. After socialism failed to resonate and fascism likely won't either I'm wondering what the marketing boys will think up next. My guess is hudswingerism or shazzameterism

I would love to see a list of sites that were taken down due to the white house rat patrol you know since there's supposed to be unprecedented transparency in the Obama administration.

[The Jays]

Wow. Websites taken down? What type of weed do you smoke?

[LordJezo]

I really don't want to fuel the conspiracy, but if you're getting an autoresponder message like that, the email address is not necessarily "disabled". The mail is reaching its destination and it is triggering the autoresponder message. Now the mail could still be dropped in a bit bucket or /dev/null type spot where it disappears as if it was never received and can never be read, but it could also still forward to another email address even with the autoresponder. The mail logs will still have the email address it came from for a little while anyway depending on their log storage/rotation policies. It's easy to set up on ANY mail system.

I'm not saying they're lying about disabling the email address. I'm just saying that the general public doesn't have this kind of knowledge about how email works and could easily be misled. Again ... I'm not saying they're doing it. I'm just saying that it is technically possible to be done and most people would never know the difference.

[Furtherman]

I'm just saying LordJezo doesn't have this kind of knowledge about how anything works and could always be misled.

Fixed.
