As the 2012 presidential campaign heats up, President Obama’s campaign team has set up a new Web site, AttackWatch.com, to challenge negative statements about the president made by Republican presidential candidates and conservatives.
Obama for America national field director Jeremy Bird told ABC News that the site’s goal is to offer “resources to fight back” against attacks. Mostly, that means fact checking statements from the likes of GOP presidential contenders Mitt Romney and Rick Perry and conservative commentator Glenn Beck and offering evidence to the contrary. The site is designed in bold red and black colors, and uses statements like “support the truth” and “fight the smears.”
The response to the site has been less than stellar.
On Twitter, where the Web site has an account to help Obama supporters submit evidence of “attacks” on the president using the hashtag #attackwatch, nearly every tweet about the site — mostly from conservatives — has ridiculed it.

Dana Perino said to watch Gutfeld on the five. Ten minutes.
obammy and his entire administration are making us the laughing stock of the world.
Is there any truth in that the new Obama Stimulus plan comes with Butt Paste to ease the pain? #AttackWatch
I complained that I couldn't get my favorite flavor of Slurpee.
Today ought to show the left that the right has no shortage of a sense of humor.
Some of my favorite tweets:
New jobs plan from #attackwatch: turn in a RINO $10, a Republican $20, a 912er $40, tea partier $60 and a tea party leader $100, Paulbots $0
No one will ever see my tweets at #attackwatch because there are so many. Can you have other tweeters..uh.."removed"?
#attackwatch Many people are quoting Obama's campaign promises. That's just mean. Make them stop!
I just drove my car over the speed limit to McDonalds and bought a Happy Meal with an evil, evil toy in it. #attackwatch
#AttackWatch Somebody cut me off in traffic. I think it was a Tea Party Terrorist trying to suppress my vote. I saw a Republican walking around today unencumbered and free! THIS MUST STOP!
#AttackWatch how many times does a child have to turn in their parents to get the official Hitler youth knife?
#attackwatch The neighbor's dog only @#$^ on the right half of my property making it into some kinda gopcircle. Alien message?
#attackwatch I just tore that @#$% tag off my mattress
Timepieces being flung at OFA HQ. It's an #AttackWatch watch attack!

#attackwatch I was at the Waffle House and a Sr. citizen just referred to the President as Barrack Hussein Obama their License # is attached
#attackwatch I just saw several people refuse to eat their peas. Do you have a SWAT team?
Obama I'm confused. If I see someone suspicious should I use #AttackWatch or this illegal class III AK-47 an ATF agent gave me?"
Dear @AttackWatch : I was hoping to get a job at your website. Question: Do I need a Mao suit to apply or will you give me one?
#attackwatch Dear #AttackWatch, which is more supportive of Obama's glorious collective? Potatoes or Stove Top Stuffing?
AttackWatch my car's Check Engine light is on. I did; engine is still there. Light still on. Can you help?
#attackwatch I don't always report on my neighbors, but when I do, I use #AttackWatch"
Me too! Brad Thor pointed out that Fox reported WAPO changed their headline from;
WaPo: Obama's New Site, AttackWatch.com, Becomes Laughing Stock of the Internet
to:
Attack Watch, new Obama campaign site to ‘fight smears,’ becomes laughing stock of conservatives

Good. This is the quickest way to get 0 to unravel. I've always believed the flop-eared P.O.S. has the thinnest skin of anyone in D.C. He absolutely cannot stand to be laughed at.
Too bad. I'll bet that's been a problem for him all of his life.
Thank you. Sorry about that. I had them elsewhere and pasted them and they were glued together.
Just passed a Prius with the Obama bumper sticker partially scraped off - do you want the license number? #attackwatch
Holy crap, people are funny!

Obama created two new jobs yesterday. One in New York and one in Nevada.
obama’s twitter feed got flash mobbed.
And Herman Cain. He said "Seriously?"
Simple and to the point. :-)
LOL!
I went to that site and the first thing they wanted me to do was to give them my credit card number, phone number, and address. Bunch of moochers.

If only the #Obama administration could create an atmosphere where jobs materialized as quickly as #attackwatch jokes!
