Who’s behind the Internet Snitch Brigade
White House spokesman Bobby Gibbs says not to worry. The health care czar isn’t going to do anything nefarious with the info gathered by the Internet Snitch Brigade. Uh-huh. The Obama bully boys are just going to use it for a scrapbooking project. No biggie.
Czardom has its privileges. This week, President Obama’s health care overlord launched a taxpayer-funded initiative to recruit an Internet Snitch Brigade that will combat “disinformation about health insurance reform.” As the White House explained in a special online bulletin:
“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.”
