White House Closes "Snitch on your Neighbor" Site
White House/The Lid ^ | 8/17/09 | The Lid

Posted on 08/17/2009 10:48:36 AM PDT by Shellybenoit

A little less than two weeks ago, the Obama administration announced a program asking American's to spy on their neighbors. The call for an army of spies was announced in a White House’s internet site blog:

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.”

Maybe the White House is understanding that we are getting just a little bit nervous` about, their "1984-type tactics." This morning the White House announced it is tightening up its Email rules as a result of the Axelrod-spam incident:

This is a hoax. I have sent 10-12 emails to flag@whitehouse.gov since Drudge put this up. I had 2 returned early this morning, none since.

Don’t be too quick to call Victory yet!

They probably weren’t looking for actual “offenders” to be reported on flag@whitehouse.gov They were probably instead looking to recruit people who would “grass” or “supergrass” on their neighbors, at a future date. Send an e-mail on someone, qualify as a “grass”. Send enough emails and qualify as a “supergrass”.

After two weeks, they probably have received enough volunteers for one “grass” per neighborhood, with one “supergrass” to coordinate each community.

Never underestimate the evils of the Nazis and their ilk. After 65 years since we whupped them last time, they have probably learned a few new evil tricks.

Maybe they found out dem shills were putting out the hate stuff as a way to gin up donations. A rich family member (many many millions) donates to democrats and always tells me about the right wing hate stuff that's emailed to her...

I mentioned how odd that was - considering that I'm a right wing Republican and no one mails that stuff to me.

Now it adds up. Obama and Janet probably checked the "hate stuff" out and found out it was produced by ACORN.

Now it adds up. Obama and Janet probably checked the "hate stuff" out and found out it was produced by ACORN - to keep dem donations up... They just scare the sh-t out of their own elites...

They will blame it on right-wing mobs funded by the Republican party, when in reality it folded because it was illegal.

I’ve turned you all in. You get these little books and “brown stamps” (brown shirts), a brown stamp for each person you turn in, soon I’ll be able to get a full tank of gas ...
