Obama Campaign Launches 'Truth Teams'
ABC News ^ | February 13, 2012 | Devin Dwyer

Posted on 02/13/2012 10:46:55 AM PST by thouworm

The Obama campaign is today beginning a new effort to enlist and educate at least 2 million supporters for a "grassroots communications team" they're calling the Truth Team.

The rollout also includes a social media blitz, directing supporters to three new websites:

KeepingHisWord.com, which highlights Obama's record and "promises kept";

KeepingGOPHonest.com, which highlights GOP policy positions; and

AttackWatch.com, which fact-checks claims made against Obama on the campaign trail.

Now, if THAT isn't a scary choice of words, I dunno what is.

Good point! No doubt it will be paid education---just like they hired union workers for $60 per day to "occupy." How else will Obama eat through his $Billion campaign fund? The taxpayer is paying for most of his campaigning so far.

Thank you! I thought the title “KeepingHisWord” was absolutely the creepiest thing about this.

We used to joke that Obama thought he was the messiah, but it looks like it’s no joke anymore. (Personally, I think that’s why he’s taken on the Church and is trying to assert his authority over it.)

No messiah complex here...../s

Yeah, isn't that quite the olfactory obamanation, just like a rotting corpse. Or as BO would say, corpse-man. The stench of this administration has surely reached to the heavenly Throne.
