1. The Associated Press Says:
Tue Aug 4, 9:29 am ET WASHINGTON – The White House is turning to the Internet to hit back at a Web posting that claims to show President Barack Obama explaining how his health care reform plans eventually would eliminate private insurance.
The three-minute White House video features Linda Douglass, a former network television correspondent and now White House Office of Health Reform communications director, sitting in front of a computer screen showing the Drudge Report Web site.
-snip-
In the video Douglas says the site is "taking sentences and phrases out of context, and they're cobbling them together to leave a very false impression."

3. Obama in ‘03 (Uncut): I’d Like to See a ‘Single Payer Health Care Plan’
http://www.breitbart.tv/obama-in-03-id-like-to-see-a-single-payer-health-care-plan/
“I happen to be a proponent of a single payer universal health care program. I see no reason why the United States of America, the wealthiest country in the history of the world, spending 14 percent of its Gross National Product on health care cannot provide basic health insurance to everybody. And that’s what Jim is talking about when he says everybody in, nobody out. A single payer health care plan, a universal health care plan. And that’s what I’d like to see. But as all of you know, we may not get there immediately. Because first we have to take back the White House, we have to take back the Senate, and we have to take back the House.”
By-the-way, I remember Linda Douglass as a hack reporter from Los Angeles, who is now, apparently, filling the role of Lord Haw Haw, the British fascist and Nazi sympathizer.
repost:
We intend to use a lot of the grassroots viral Internet techniques from the campaign to beat back the campaign of misstatements and outright falsehoods about the president’s efforts to reform health insurance.”
........................
ASK THE QUESTION MSM................WHAT EXACTLY DOES THIS QUOTE MEAN???????
“grassroots viral Internet techniques from the campaign”
least we forget his education:
‘Change,’ for Alinsky, invoked radical socialism and meant the redistribution of wealth. [For] Obama [it] means the same, but by hiding the reference he avoids having to be explicit about the radical goal behind the theme.”
Some Key Alinsky Code Words
Change - Eliminating the free enterprise system and replacing it with socialism, and peacefully overthrowing the present government and replacing it with communism.
Community Organizer - One who (1) agitates by identifying and magnifying the real or imagined failings of the establishment as they supposedly apply to the target group, (2) organizes the target group into a political force, and (3) turns that force into “change”.
That image just yells "FASCISM", doesn't it? The "People united" under the "protecting shield" of that creepy looking Obama/Reichseagle "Aesculape" symbol. Shudder!
Is that a real image from the White House???
Linda Douglass is to honest reporting as 2 “D” cell batteries are to love.
Linda Douglas, just one of the many journalists that now work for Obama. Stunning.
Drudge, we got your back. F*** the marxist and his stooges.
I remember her as a hard-core lefty at KNBC and KCBS in Los Angeles. She could always be counted on to snidely attack President Reagan. Married to a lefty, too.
HA! Even though she is dead WRONG on this it is funny and telling just how much they assume we are doing just the same to them. They are now showing us their plays from their play book.
The truth REALLY REALLY hurts these people and they will do or say ANYTHING to try to deflect facts.
It IS creepy. Do you suppose this is subliminal advertising? And WHY?
It’s called astroturfing.
They don’t have grassroots support...so they’ll manufacture it.
That was my gut reaction to seeing it!!!
I had to quick scroll down the page to be rid of this nauseating image!
The first thing she says is the ‘Bama’s words were taken out of context, without any type of explanation. Then, she runs a tape of the ‘Bama saying the bill won’t take away private health insurance, with the implication that it’s all cleared up with the denial. These people are so accustomed everything they say being taken at face value, they can’t comprehend the concept of being caught in a lie.
Drudge is kicking their ass. Dear leader doesn’t like criticism.
There is one quote from a single video being mentioned from the link Drudge had that Obama and Co., via former ABC's Douglass, are bitching about. And once again they are lying and pretending it's a standard chop job that the likes of Douglass' former employer use on Pubbies as standard operating procedure.
Off topic: I love how my Firefox browser that I just downloaded has a spell check that claims "Obama" is an unknown word but that "Drudge" isn't.
Excellent comparison.
