Did Obama's people send out an e-mail requesting people to post on forums like Facebook?

Did someone from the Obama administration sent out a directive requesting that people post something on forums like Facebook about healthcare.

Two different people make the exact same post on my Facebook page. It was:

No one should die because they cannot afford health care, and no one should go broke because they get sick. If you agree, please post this as your status for the rest of the day and do something useful, like writing or calling your representatives.4 hours ago · Comment · Like / Unlike

"No one should die because they cannot afford health care, and no one should go broke because they get sick."

This part I have read or heard a dozen times.

I have 6 people who posted the same thing in my friends list someone started it and basically it goes to friends if you agree post it.
Who did the first post who knows but I work in Health Care and I am sorry anyone and I mean anyone can walk into an ER and be treated they will not be turned away. In my county we (not me however) voted in favor of a Prop in Alameda county CA to raise the sales tax a couple of years ago to GIVE EVERYONE WHO DOES NOT HAVE HEALTH CARE , HEALTH CARE!
Our tax at the time went from 9.25% to 9.50% than CA because they can’t handle their money and want to spend like they got a tree in the backyard raised the sales tax statewide. We now in Alameda County pay 9.75% sales tax so unless a person is dumb and I am sorry to say that everyone who does not have health care in my county is able to get it because they raised our darn sales tax to do it.
Maybe the reason why so many people are uninsured and I dont believe the amount is because they want someone to do the work for them in checking for plans and programs.
I hate to be hard nose I am thankful I am healthy and have coverage but alot of lies are going on with the left side.
I do believe we need something but not to throw out the baby with the bath water.

There is also a part of the message that says something like “if you agree, copy this and post it as your status.” It says nothing about the origins, of course, but the O-bots actually had to be directed to do this. I’ve seen quite a few parody/rebuttals, too>

Best response I’ve seen yet:

“xxxxxx believes that we should replace our current health care system with Renewal and the Sandmen from “Logan’s Run.” If you agree, please make this your status message for the day.”

My guess it was Moveon.org or some other silly front group. Frankly, I wanted to barf. In response, I donated to the charity care fund at a local hospital. I posted my reaction, got a lot of “thumbs up” but funny, no one else interested in “putting up” so to speak.

A conservative friend put up the line and then send “that doesn’t mean that the government should control it.”

I told her my response and THEN had to point out that it is easy to post an emotional line on Facebook but if it really was a priority people would find time, talent and treasure in their own homes to tackle the problem.

We now have crickets.

I have an ultra lib sister in law who I have as a Facebook friend only as a gesture to family harmony. If she ever posted something like that it’d be all the excuse I need to zot her.

OK, I thought my reponse was cool (I entered the “who can be more sanctimonius? contest”), but this was hilarious.

Well, I thought it was odd when the exact same thing was posted from two liberals ... no change in wording, etc.

It’s like some of those montages that Rush plays where all the liberal commentators use the exact same words from the talking points they received. Not even original enough to change it just a bit.

Does anyone know where this originated? I know Obama is trying to infiltrate networking sites like Facebook and glean information about people and I guess they’ve decided to use it to spread demo talking points.

If you have a public water supply, invest in a reverse osmosis unit and don’t accept ANY injection from ANY doctor until we get our country back from these craven lunatics!

(Better safe than sorry with all the nuttiness happening out of the bogus presidency we unfortunately have to endure.

I haven’t ever thought myself as a tinfoil hat guy, but maybe I should reconsider?

LOL! I got one of those wall posts - and he’s just a friend to use as a Farmtown neighbor. The only thing I know about him is he’s a LIBERAL, obviously!

I’ll still harvest his crops though.

Yea, one of my ‘friends’ just posted this as their status (they must have a pass it on movement)

“No one should die because they cannot afford health care, and no one should go broke because they get sick. If you agree, please post this as your status for the rest of the day”

I’ve seen this nonstop today from my liberal friends. I’ve bit my tongue raw trying not to respond. Mostly females posting this crap.

Same for me. But I close all the ads on the side about that, and any referring to stimulous, etc, etc, etc.
