Here's how President Obama's head of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs and author of "Repulblic.com," Cass Sunstein, describes FreeRepublic.com as "group polarization," where people segregate themselves so effectively online with other like-minded thinkers that they create an echo chamber where the group's worst and most malevolent opinions get reinforced and strengthened. "We might want to consider," Sunstein startlingly told the Times recently, "the possibility of ways of requiring or encouraging sites to link to opposing viewpoints."
He recently left the Administration.
Cass Sunstein must have seen the writing on the wall. All these people left when it was convenient to not cause problems from Obama Like Anita Dunn, Van Jones, Christina Romer and Austin Goolsbee.
