If the opponents of his policies were lying and those lies were affecting big segments of the population, yes Id expect them to want to know who was funding it, what was going on.
Who owns the truth?

All you have to do is read the bills to determine what is true or not. You however, have no interest in doing that - you are perfectly content to let the dem/libs tell you what is is them, because you really don't care, as long as the government takes over HC.

and two, there never was any need to lie about the Bush regime; the truth was insane enough just all by itself.
They lied continuously, throughout his tenure.

A great reply to the nazi tactics of the WH;

Republican leader attacks 'fishy' White House request

Quote:
"I am not aware of any precedent for a president asking American citizens to report their fellow citizens to the White House for pure political speech that is deemed ?fishy? or otherwise inimical to the White House?s political interests," John Cornyn of Texas wrote US President Barack Obama.

"As Congress debates health care reform and other critical policy matters, citizen engagement must not be chilled by fear of government monitoring the exercise of free speech rights," he wrote.
Stop with the enemies list; Wasn't obama supposed to be a post-partisan?

The Weekly Standard

Quote:
· How do you intend to use the names, email addresses, IP addresses, and identities of citizens who are reported to have engaged in “fishy” speech?

· How do you intend to notify citizens who have been reported for “fishy” speech?

· What action do you intend to take against citizens who have been reported for engaging in “fishy” speech?

· Do your own past statements qualify as “disinformation”? For example, is it “disinformation” to note that in 2003 you said: “I happen to be a proponent of a single-payer universal health care plan”?

I look forward to your prompt response.

And WHERE would you start?

Abandon all the wounded from Iraq/Afghanistan who will require care for life?

WHEN are the NeoConfused going to wake up and realize if they insist on wars of choice there will be long term costs.?

Thank you! That is what I was saying. Glad to see I am not the only one that thinks our Freedom of Speech is being trampled on.
