Douglass stands by W.H. effort to gather 'fishy' health information @ 4:49 pm by Jordan Fabian
Obama administration official Linda Douglass on Sunday dismissed claims that the White House has tried to compile an "enemies list" and censor debate on healthcare reform legislation.
Last week, the White House made a blog post accusing opponents of spreading "disinformation" on healthcare and encouraged supporters to submit "fishy" information floating around the internet.
"We don't have a list we're not keeping any of the sources of information those are all crazy charges," said Douglass, who is Communications Director of the White House Office of Health Reform. Douglass appeared on CNN's "Reliable Sources" on Sunday.
Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tex.) sent the White House a letter at the end of last week expressing concern that the Obama administration may be collecting personal information belonging to their vocal opponents.
Douglass also responded to criticism that the White House has tried to stifle debate. She said people were entitled to their opinion but "there is a lot of misinformation and as I said in the video there is a lot of 'disinformation,' that's information that's meant to mislead you."
"There is a lot of effort to scare people," the former ABC newswoman added.
Additionally, Douglass refuted the YouTube clip that sparked the controversy. The video montage featured Obama speaking favorably about a single-payer healthcare system during his time as a senator.
"He didn't have a different position when he was a senator," she said, explaining he was speaking hypothetically at the time.
Here is video of Douglass' remarks:

They are assembling a “WHITE LIST”.
BO can explain that when he comes back in the US. Seems like everytime the politics get a little heated up BO has another trip to make.
Add that to:
"The check is in the mail"
"Islam is a Religion of Peace"
"I did not have sex with that woman"
"No tax increase for anyone making < 250k a year"
"Change you can believe in"
Don’t they legally have to keep the information?
You almost have to admire the brazen chutzpah of these people.
They certainly are brazen liars, aren’t they?
Every last word of it, the entire document.

Four words for you Douglass since I’m sure you and your Nazis are reading this: Go F**k yourself Hitler.
You mean we haven’t crashed that thing yet?
I would have thought the email addy would have spontaneously combusted by Friday!
Oh, well, if SHE says it, then I believe it. sheesh! Bagdad Bob with mascara.
This is nothing but Crapola. The whitehouse needs to shut this down and hold the people responsible for it accountable. This is Orwellian “1984” in action and it should scare the hell out anyone on the right or left. What happen to all those so called guardians of our first amendment rights err the free press? Did they all get jobs at the whitehouse working for Barry and company?
Paraphrase: ‘We want information, but we’re not doing anything with it, and we’re not saving it.’ So what ARE they doing with it? It looks like they are breaking two laws and don’t know how to extricate themselves.

So your deleting the “From” line from the e-mail huh? Isn't that unlawful altering of a White House document? If your deleting that Honey, what else in the e-mails are your not keeping?
You see the very act of setting up such an e-mail account was a violation of statute. I know the statute very well. I am bound by a similar one. All data that I gather that might be used in a patent filling or an FDA Investigational New Drug Application must be maintained in its original form and may not be altered. This is why my lab books are bound and all electronic data must have a time and date stamp.
“What happen to all those so called guardians of our first amendment rights err the free press? Did they all get jobs at the whitehouse working for Barry and company?”
They are either with him physically or in spirit.
We are finding out that Orwell was an optimist.
