How dare the white house want to correct lies?
See, that's the problem. You assume what's coming out of the WH and liberal land is truth - it is not, it is far from it.

White House's Call For Informants: If You Oppose Obamacare, Even in ‘Casual Conversation,’ the White House Wants to Know About It

From the White House website: The White House - Blog Post - Facts Are Stubborn Things

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
But Cap they never refer to their program as health insurance reform. That is what they are using it for but they call it health care reform. They really do get excited when anybody talks about the real thing they want, single payer health care. Somehow libs manage to not understand that that is socialized medicine and financed with taxes.

You should take another look at the post you quoted.
I was not judging the white house's comments.

I said they want to correct lies.

For example, here is a lie:
"All non-US citizens, illegal or not, will be provided with free health care services."

Because some people still believe anonymous emails, without ever checking the facts.

Here is another for you:
"In the health care bill, "The 'Health Choices Commissioner' will decide health benefits for you. You will have no choice. None."

Oh wait, you are one of those who don't appreciate the truth - you preferred when the previous administration hid the wars cost, making the deficit look so much prettier than it was in reality.

Come on, Jill. My ballot didn't have a place to vote for or against socialized medicine. That really was what The Man wanted all along, wasn't it?

I got cheated when I had to choose between two losers. I am going to demand that my state cleans up that crap and puts what we are really voting for and not just two names.
