Obama assembling de facto propaganda ministry

The U.S. State Department is planning to “buy” media broadcasts, as the Obama administration assembles a de facto propaganda machine, according to documents that reveal the president’s plans moving closer to the 2012 election.

Huh? It's already assembled and in full working mode. It has been since January 2009.

The state department is out of control, Podesta is now one of their advisers. One of the creepiest aspects of this administration is the propaganda, daily campaigning and deflection tactics (race card..war on women)

And anyone who asks the wrong questions or pries a bit too much gets kicked out of the White House press corps.. Or is that ‘corpse’?

Obama out talking to High School kids, and college youth...when he should be scheduling speeches with the working class Americans...

he doesn't have the balls to face us...he knows he will loose...

so instead he will buy up the media...

SAD WORLD WE ARE LIVING IN...
