This gag order is going to backfire in a big way on this administration. It’s an appalling assault on freedom of speech in America.

Can’t they sue the govt on this? I would say that any judge can issue an injunction on this silly nonsense rightaway. Why don’t they do it???

Great quote...and after that they go straight for the voting machine software. Just like Chavez.

It might be a better move politically to let this gag order go on for a while and give it a lot of publicity before going to the courts to strike it down. What would Rove do in a situation like this...hmmmmm...I think he’d let this play in the media for a while.

The Senators need to start showing up for work every day with duct tape over their mouths.

Dear Humana Policy Holder,

I regret to inform you that we have been banned by President Obama and his HHS Secretary from giving you any information about the horrible things that his health care proposal will do to your insurance, including the likely termination of the Medicare Advantage program. Please understand that we are under a Federal Gag Order and have been prohibited from telling you any of this by the President of the United States.

Very Truly Yours,
