"So the White House, whether by design or accident, has requested information from the public that will become 'records' under the Presidential Records Act"

Nothing that Rahm Emmanuel or David Axelrod does, is by accident. Nothing.

This is such an incredibly chilling and intimidating act, not seen since the days of the Nixon administration. People loved to compare the secrecy of Bush's White House with that of Nixon's. However, there wasn't a SINGLE allegation that Bush was using the Patriot act, or any Federal agency to compile information for political purposes. And yet, this is exactly what the STATED purposes is for this collection of information in the Obama White House.

People need to wake up before it's too late to correct the damage that's been done to the Republic.
