Obama Is Looking For A Few Good Snitches
Aug 5, 2009 Political
The propaganda machine at the White House is in full gear as it tries to put a positive spin on the recently released video of Obama (and several other Democrats) saying that they wanted a single payer system of health care. Obama is seen telling his union buddies that this is what he wants. The video was on the Drudge Report and contained excerpts from several speeches which showed how Obama really feels. He wants a single payer system.
The White House ministry of propaganda put out a video today in which Linda Douglass tells us that the same people who always spread rumors to stop health care reform are busy splicing together things that take Obama out of context. Breitbart, the site that posted the original video, responded by posting the uncut quote from Obama. In that clip he clearly states he is in favor of single payer:
“I happen to be a proponent of a single payer universal health care program. I see no reason why the United States of America, the wealthiest country in the history of the world, spending 14 percent of its Gross National Product on health care cannot provide basic health insurance to everybody. And that’s what Jim is talking about when he says everybody in, nobody out. A single payer health care plan, a universal health care plan. And that’s what I’d like to see. But as all of you know, we may not get there immediately. Because first we have to take back the White House, we have to take back the Senate, and we have to take back the House.” [emphasis mine]
I don’t know how the ministry of propaganda will spin this because it is the entire, uncut version and Obama says he is in favor of a single payer system. He says that they might not get there immediately because they need to take over the White House and the Congress (which they now have control of). There is no doubt what Obama said and what he means. His propaganda minister tells us that Obama has said he is not for a single payer system and since he has said so we should believe him. He also said he DID want single payer so which version of Obama should we believe.
My money is on the version that gets us closer to Socialism.
In the White House video Linda Douglass tells us that the Obama Administration needs us to spy on our neighbors and report them:
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. Stop The ACLU [emphasis mine]
Since Obama’s SS Troopers are not up and running the government cannot keep an eye on all of us at the present so they are asking that you report anyone who opposes the health care plan. If you see something that seems fishy report it so they can send the jackbooted Obamabots over to rearrange your dental work.
Perhaps Obama was trying to intimidate people into accepting his plan. Not gonna happen. I am not intimidated by him or any other employee of mine in elected office. Obama works for me not the other way around. Any of you libtards out there who want to tell him I said so, the email address is above.
As for the request to report fishy stuff, I think I will comply with that. I will be reporting each time a member of Congress or Obama tells me something about the plan. For instance, when these morons tell us it will not cost more money, that is fishy because it is a down and out lie. Nothing the government does is cost neutral or involves savings because Congress is full of people who have no business experience. Most of them have never held a real job and they do not know what fiscal responsibility is.
So folks, if you want to help Obama get a handle on this health care thing remember to email him each time he or a member of Congress says anything about the plan because whatever they say will be fishy.
For those of you who think the request for neighbors to report neighbors is no big deal, remember what the Nazis did. They asked people to report on who the Jews were. We know what happened to a lot of Jews.
And no I don’t think that could happen here (though Obama might think he could pull it off) because the people he would have to go after are all the Second Amendment adherents.
Remember when the black community was saying that Obama was not black enough, or that he acted white? Maybe they were on to something. He is asking for people to snitch which means he must not have seen the Stop Snitching video.
He better be thankful he is from Chicago or his street creds would be shot to hell.
Points to remember; Obama wants a single payer system and he voted against health care reform nearly 10 times when he was a Senator. It is not about health and it is not about care. It is about control of your life.
One other thing to keep in mind. If the video was insignificant and full of lies the White House would not have needed to respond. The fact that they had a video up in less than 24 hours shows that they know Obama has been caught in a lie and they are trying to change the perception by claiming it is a bunch of right wingers who manipulate the truth and exercise creative editing. How will they explain the entire, uncut, quote?
Hat tip to STACLU (idea to email the White House with its own lies)
