What did he mean? He specifically mentioned people who think that government is “inherently bad”. This, he said, puts democracy at risk.
No it doesn’t, it puts it in perspective. Only an asshole that thinks Govt is the answer to everything would assert such a thing. Hampton University, some real stunning intellects there.

The Factcheck Czar?
And to think that the Washington Post refused to report positive news items on our military operations in Iraq "because we aren't going to carry your propaganda".

Orwell called it the Ministry of Truth, or Minitrue. That was 1947; funny how he saw it coming.

At least in a democracy, the people can voice dissent at the government. Not so in Obama's America 2.0.

Seems like Obama just smacked down the MSM for not doing its job well enough.

Cass Sunstein is the dirtiest radical in Hussein's inner circle. Sunstein would happily march every freeper into a concentration camp.

This may be an indication of his plans to have the FCC control the Internet.
Climategate would of never been revealed if not for the Internet. He already has GE owned media and OFA to push his propaganda.
from article - Apparently people aren't thinking the right thoughts.

Cass Sunstein is the dirtiest radical in Hussein's inner circle I think Glenn Beck is going to cover this on his TV show today. One of the most dangerous people in the group.

The Ministry of Truth was the first thing I thought of too. It’s sad how prescient Orwell was. War is peace.

Orwell was right.
This lunatic must be removed from office.

Is the Obama Administration preparing the ground for a Ministry of Truthiness? Hmmmmm, when does this ministry start work? Are they going to ignore when Obama pounced on evil ipads, playstations, etc. when Obama himself is addicted to a crackberry (or were we not supposed to have noticed the hypocracy?)
