President Obama's re-election team on Monday rolled out a campaign to recruit two million supporters to help debunk attacks on the president's record and hit back at his Republican rivals.
Called the "Truth Team," the new effort will engage Obama supporters online and in person, encouraging them to communicate with undecided voters about the president's record.
"People don't just want to hear from campaign statements or ads -- they want to hear from the family and friends they trust," Stephanie Cutter, Mr. Obama's deputy campaign manager, wrote in an email to supporters.
Obama for America, the president's re-election team, will announce "truth teams" in a handful of swing states today. National groups like the National Education Association and the Service Employees International Union have also signed on as partners in the effort.
The "Truth Team" website highlights the effort's three goals, each of which have their own website: AttackWatch.com will defend the president against false attacks, KeepingGOPHonest.com will fact check Republicans' claims about their own records, and KeepingHisWord.com will tout the president's record.
In 2008, more than a million people participated in Mr. Obama's similar "Fight the Smears" initiative. This year, the campaign hopes to double that number before the Democratic National Convention in the fall.
The "truth team" effort acknowledges the bitter contest expected between Mr. Obama and his 2012 opponent. Social media can be a powerful tool to help combat attacks, but it also carries some risks -- when the campaign launched AttackWatch.com last fall, conservatives largely lampooned it.
LOL LOL LOL
Has anyone thought that these Truth Team Liberals may be trying to get EMail addresses and names of those that disagree with them?
Ooo...when do we get to spam the site? :D
No surprise that the NEA will be part of this subversive group!
Don’t tell me they are going to start telling the truth!!

Yes. Think of their resources for a moment. No, more along the lines of Hillary’s 900 lost files. There.
Nahh, they will just lock him in a rubber room for a few days, and send out Moochele to dance like a 18 year old and do some push ups on some “Desperate Housewife's” type show and all will be well.
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
Very creative characterization of the Obama Truth Team leader. You are a real wizard!
KeepingHisWord.com ??? How... humble of our savior. /s
“KeepingHisWord.com”
This has gone beyond weird. This guy is a friggin’ dangerous sumbitch. Really, this is way, way too ef’d up.
You did click on the pic? It’s a sing-along :o)
You Obama leftist fascists look ye well upon the end of Joseph Goebells, and tremble:
Goebells could not hide behind his own false image, nor can Obama:
And now we see the "protective" squadrons of Obama as a fascist and their respective fascist methodology:
Yup. Here we go again. Make sure to sign up and communicate early and often, and set the record straight;-/
Now that 2008 Washington Post excerpt was a GOOD Post. It speaks to what we as a nation face. Obama is a liberal fascist, uncaring of the American people or our Constitution. That is plain. Obama is a sworn enemy of The People.
A Good Read, very clarifying:
