White Lies from the White House
Philip Elliott, Associated Press Writer stated in his article the following:
"After insisting no one was receiving unsolicited e-mails from the White House (WH), officials reversed their story Monday night and blamed outside political groups for the unwanted messages from the tech-savvy operation." Isn't that a shocking revelation? White lies being admitted to by the White House! But passing the buck was quickly used as well.
For anyone who doesn't understand what happened. Here is a quick run-down:
1. WH sets up email address for people to report "fishy" internet information so that the administration can keep up with the false rumors being spread around.
2. Joe and Janet American Citizens decide to take a stand against this type of system that makes an enemy list for Obama. The people rise up and complain to everyone that they can.
3. WH gets worried that they have really stepped over the proverbial place of no return.
4. Real unbiased journalist speak out against it and even go so far as to question them publically about this privacy invasion.
5. Soon media and the Americans decide to show WH what real democracy looks like by protesting loudly and calling this scam exactly what it is for all the world to hear. It goes against our First Amendment Rights.
6. Another alarm is set off that lets Joe and Janet know that WH is gathering email addresses and sending unsolicited messages to people.
7. Real Journalists boldly asked why and kept asking why until WH was in full blown panic mode.
8. Flag.gov scam is shut down! It will no longer exist! Joe and Janet America along with Real Journalists demand that WH speak the truth and stop lying.
9. WH makes public apology to everyone by admitting that maybe, un-beknown to them, some people who didn't sign up to receive emails from the WH were actually sent a
message from a top political adviser, by the name of David Axelrod urging them to support health care reform.
10. WH passes the buck by blaming an unknown independent group that signed up their members for WH updates. It wasn't their fault but they are so very sorry!
WH online director, Macon Phillips said in a blog posting "An ironic development is that the launch of an online program meant to provide facts about health insurance reform has itself become the target of fear-mongering and online rumors that are the tactics of choice for the defenders of the status quo".
Now that is Democracy in action! People saw what was happening, passed the word onto others and demanded that this invasion stop! The people's voices were heard! On a small scale, this shows what can be done to stop the Socialist Change.
