Welcome to Gestapo-care

So what has the White House told supporters to do when you run across those who spread "disinformation" about the new attempt by the Obama administration to install the anti-competitive practices of a "public option" into a federalized universal health care initiative?

Report them.

Whether its communicated through e-mail, websites, blogs, or even casual conversation the executive branch of the federal government is asking you to make them aware of this "disinformation" because they can't keep track of all of the dissenters themselves.

From Tuesday's White House blog entry: There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. 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.

Pardon me for asking such an obvious question, but what concern is it to the President or his administration if private citizens have disagreements, discussions, and dissections of his proposed take over of the health care industry?

Last I checked I had the constitutional right to do so.

But now he wishes to turn one citizen against another?

At dozens of the townhall meetings taking place back in individual districts this month, numbers of reports have surfaced that ACCORN members have taken to publicly berating normal citizens who are simply there to ask the questions they have about the viability of a plan that requires the Government to spend an additional $1,000,000,000 dollars. They wonder this especially when 85% of people in America are satisfied and content with the health insurance system they've already chosen to engage.

So what's the answer to good old fashioned grass roots voters actually being engaged with their Congressional Reps and U.S. Senators while they're home during the August break?

The White House believes it's best to intimidate and silence, or at the bare minimum--report.

The mistake this White House continues to make, seemingly on a daily basis, is that they reveal very much what they truly think of freedoms of the American political process.

Being generous we can conclude--it's not a very high opinion.

When President George W. Bush was being stalked by Cindy Sheehan and Code Pink on a daily basis, over a genuine issue of national security--the war on terror--he met with Sheehan, acknowledged her pain, and wished her well, all while respectfully disagreeing with her over the policy.

President Obama, by contrast, on April 15th when more than 2800 TEA Parties occurred and an excess of 1.5 million people turned out, showed them the back of his hand and insisted on marginalizing those who sought his attention on a fundamental issue of his job performance.

And now he's asking you to report those who disagree with him to his newly crafted e-mail address.

There could likely be many good reasons for the White House to have set up an e-mail address "flag@whitehouse.gov."

Like reporting a suspicious truck parked in a place it's not supposed to be. Or the systematic movement of people that seek to attack the nation. Or even a suspicious piece of baggage that should not be left unaccompanied.

But reporting your neighbors for simply disagreeing on the unknown outcomes of a federally controlled, centralized universal Governmental control of health care is not an acceptable use of such.

Perhaps it would be different if we felt the administration was dealing with us honestly.

All but admitting that they will have to raise taxes on the middle class, coupled with catching significant personalities on video--i.e. Barney Frank, Jan Schikowski, and President Obama--all opining for the desire of the new "public option" to lead to a single payer system, gives the nation little pause nor confidence to think that what they say presently in prime time press conferences is genuine.

So what should our response be?

Greater demands for free speech...

Louder volumes at Townhall meetings...

Bigger belligerence the tighter they squeeze...

In short, when free speech is threatened, screeching screams of volition are the only thing preventing the mandated, manhandled, chokehold of silence.

So go ahead... report me... I will shout louder!

I wrote a letter to the editor and it was printed last week re: Zerocare. In today’s paper there is a letter that said I took things out of context as she read the bill. Hope she does not report me to flag.

I think that when Lanny Davis says our side should be investigated that he should look in the mirror. His ties to international pharmaceutical giants such as Hoffman-LaRoche probably explain as much about the health care reform as anything. Perhaps the driving factors in the health care reform are, in fact, international cabals. How else do you explain a wildly unpopular idea being foisted upon the American public? How much money has filtered into the Congressional coffers from these people? Look at the lobbying ties to Lanny Davis and Tom Daschle and we will see the forest instead of the trees.

LOL. So to counter against a politically overactive Executive Branch....we want an activist Judicial Oligarchy (see M. Levin: "Men in Black.") to "step in" and do what, to whom, on a court case that doesn't exist yet? wtf?

As in so many other things, Larry was spot on.

They can't. SCOTUS cannot just say, 'Hey lets look into this'.

SCOTUS is an appellate court. So a lawsuit has to start off in a district court and wind its way up. But if that district court rules you don't have standing, it ends right there. Then someone else, like in a different district, would have to try and first establish standing.
