re: #284 Maui Girl

Have you guys seen the letter that Senator Cornyn has written to President Obama? Subject matter has to do with the administration asking Americans to report via an email address, flag@whitehouse.com any “fishy” talk regarding the Obama healthcare proposals, for the purpose of “dispelling any disinformation” out there. Hmmm. Sounds alot like Obama’s campaign tactics.

Here’s the part that bugs me. It’s the WH’s use of “disinformation.” That implies a deliberate attempt to spread falsehoods for political gain. If they were merely seeking to correct “misinformation,” I wouldn’t be so suspicious. I think the use of the word disinformation reveals a lot about their own modus operandi, which they project onto their opponents.
