The Obama administration has launched a new Web site to battle what it calls "wild rumors" about the health care reform plans being pushed through Congress -- including an invitation for the public to tattle on any other "myths" they come across.
It comes a week after the White House asked the public to send in "fishy" information about health care reform.
The Web site, activated Monday, uses the same set-up as the "Fight the Smears" page the Obama campaign maintained last year to battle rumors seen as potentially damaging to his candidacy.
The new "Reality Check" site features a half-dozen alleged rumors about health care reform, responding to them with videos of top aides rebutting them.
"We're offering the site and tools to empower individuals across the country to take this content into their own hands and share it among their networks," a senior administration official said.

Rumor number one: this plan is actually good for America in any way.
I just reported http://www.whitehouse.gov/realitycheck/ to flag@whitehouse.gov as being fishy and full of lies and distortions.
Just doing my duty.
"know thy enemy..."
Why doesn’t the coward just post the actual bill? Anybody that reads even part of HB 3200 can see that they’re lying through their teeth.
The site features a veritable rogue’s gallery of spokespeople to debunk “myths”. These people have scary dead eyes.
At least we now know what Cristina Romer’s been doing while the economy flounders

So for now I have to 'hold my powder' and it's eating me up!
Good citizen!
I just heard Linda Douglass say the rumors were false in many cases.
I don't understand how you can print this stuff when we all have copies of the HR bill that says otherwise in BLACK AND WHITE ink! It doesn't matter what you "say". For each of the points you make, I can point at a page and line in the bill that states otherwise. Somebody isn't telling the truth ... is it you on your page or is it congress in the bill? You cannot "say" what you want with "something else' showing in the bill. Best you folks start reading that stuff in the HR version ... because the wording there makes a liar of you here. You are not helping the President's cause with this kind of activity. You must think we are all unable to read out here? Believe it or not, that skill is still taught in school.

Sorry for the double ... “lag” here.
The words of the “top aides” of NObama don’t mean a thing.
The words of the actual bill in Congress means everything.
This entire group of NObama and all his minions are consumate liars.
They cannot tell the truth about anything. They make it up as they go along.
Amazing that so many sociopaths could end up in one small area.....Washington DC.
I had a discussion with an idiot about gummit healthcare which I termed SOCIALISM.
Just like a good DUmmie, he asked if my grandmother was on Medicaid, since Medicaid is gummit run healthcare.
Of course she is. Medicaid is welfare. Welfare is help for those that cannot help themselves. After 30 years of working and paying taxes, she deserves it.
Medicaid is no different from foodstamps or any other gummit welfare. Even though welfare is disproportionatly abused by abled bodied democrats that refuse to work for a living, its a good thing for those that can’t help themselves. (elderly, disabled)
He wants free healthcare for all. OK what about everyone get on food stamps too? What about everyone get a welfare check in the mail every month?
