Obama's Gestapo and citizen police

This is my fist official post on a topic of concern. As you may or may not know that the white house issued a statement on a blog that essentially asks their "operatives" (read your neighbor maybe) to report any "fishy" information to 'flag@whitehouse.gov'." Well now ain't that sweet? Where is Gladys Cravits when you need here (for you youngsters that was the nosy neighbor on Bewitched).

“The White House is now urging we, the people to turn against one another and report spreading what they deem to be "disinformation" pertaining to the health care debate. From the White House's own website, here is their tyrannical decree:

• "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." http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/Facts-Are-Stubborn-Things/

There was once a Republican called Nixon who gathered information on private citizens and resulted in the Privacy Act of 1974 (rightly so). It is codified in 5 USC 552(a), and bars government agencies from doing this kind of stuff. Guess Obama and crew never read the Privacy Act of 1974 while dreaming up this, not that a Statist ever cared for any law not created by them. Not to call anyone a Nazi but this SAME tactic (sans the web) was used by Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Che, and Castro just to name a few.

Now that I have your attention you can either report me to our new secret police or do something about it.

Ironically Obama is currently trying to get his civilian “corps” going as well. H.R.1388 – The GIVE ACT. This act is what he was speaking about during his campaign where he indicated to “secure” our nation we need a civilian corps that is as big, powerful, and well funded as our military.

Do I get this right?

Step one: Get neighbors to report “dissent.”

Step 2: Have a civilian force to counter act that?

Is this The United State or Venezuela?

  1. Not to long ago it was consider patriotic to challenge your government. The 2010 elections can’t come soon enough. I only hope by that time we don’t have the “civilian corps” acting as poll watchers nation wide. If you want to know what that would like just go youtube and lookup the New Black Panthers Party in Philadelphia. The Obama justice department killed the investigation.
