The White House has named Jesse Lee to a new position within its communications department titled Director of Progressive Media & Online Response. According to The Huffington Post, Lee will essentially be responsible for building up Obama’s online presence as he prepares for his reelection bid, and squashing any negative stories:
The post is a new one for this White House. Rapid response has usually been outsourced to the Democratic National Committee (DNC), if not done on an ad-hoc basis by administration officials. And it signals that the White House will be adopting a more aggressive defense of the president and his policies as his re-election campaign gears up.
If you’re going to post something online about Obama that isn’t true, Lee is going to be the one to handle you. Considering that Lee’s first tweet about his new position included a picture of The Terminator, we suggest you watch what you say OR BE DESTROYED.
Okay that was a little dramatic, but you get the idea.
Corporations, Microsoft for one, have been infamous for doing this. It's a bad no matter who is doing it but particularly egregious to be policy at the White House.
That's it.
Only once. I'll start a collection, hanging them in my garage with the tools. They'll dry out in time.
PING!
That’s how “Ellie Light” was outed.
I spotted him pretty quickly. He was too quick with some pretty longwinded responses.
Worst part is that he’s been here for a few years.
does this mean the WH will have paid posters on FR?
i can see it now
WH troll, “did you know republican candidate X eats babies for breakfast and hates puppies!!!!”
This new appointment is simply the Joseph Goebbels Chair at the White Hut, going public. Its purpose? To cow the opposition and cast a chill on political free speech.
Buahahahahahahahaha!
THEY ALL CAN EFF RIGHT OFF!
THese liberal fascist a$$hats are a a JOKE when viewed in the context of the history of our nation, BEST not to take them too seriously at all. RIDICULE THEM!
NOW the attempt will be made to rewrite history ( Obama had a birth certificate all along!)
THIS APPOINTMENT JUST MAKES ME WANT TO CRITICIZE OBLAZMA MORE.( We are being effective....thus the appointment.)
Boy, does that sound familiar! Been reading my mind? I've been fighting that reaction for months now...for the very reason you stated.I don't want to live in a prison!
Precisely.
Glad to hear from you! Worried in Australia?
I'm sure many felt the way you did. In a nutshell, "I'm comfortable and I want to live in 'peace,' let others do it and I'll support them from afar IF it's safe enough" is totally disregarding our children and grandchildren who assuredly would live under tyranny because of our selfishness and lack of spines!
People who lived under tyranny and fled to the US have nowhere else to go and will always tell you they'll never take it lying down.
We'd better listen and raise our voices before it's too late. No wonder, the Communists are scared and going after the Tea Parties calling them terrorists.
Nowadays, raising your voice is terrorism except if it wais supporting the Communist agenda. Case in point for the double standard, the 2010 Tea Parties and election, AND, the Wisconsin and Ohio union riots, respectively.
And those of us that heard their stories won't let them down. Promise.
” People who lived under tyranny and fled to the US have nowhere else to go and will always tell you they’ll never take it lying down. “
These “people” you refer to must be us, and not the R’s in the House & Senate. I don’t think they are even concious.
The vast majority of the Rs are part of the problem. Enablers, Stockholm syndrome, Vichy, blackmailed, I neither know nor care. If they don’t stand up against the Left they are the farm team of the Left.
And most are like little squeaky mice in their ferocity against the Left.
” And most are like little squeaky mice in their ferocity against the Left. “
squeaky little mice.......I can’t improve on that ;-)
Squeaky little transgendered mice...just sayin.
They are not hiding it anymore. This is going to be the strong arm propaganda division. The campaign for 2012 is going to be very, very ugly.
We need to be answering questions about ourselves and deciding if we truly mean it...
Are we ready to stand on what we believe and know is the truth?
To borrow a phrase from them, Are we ready to speak that truth to their power?
Are we calling on God to grant us the Wisdom to see this through?
And contrary to what many conservatives want to even think about, are you ready to be a potential political prisoner?
Do Christians ever spend time in jail? Acts 16. Are you that ready?
