The Obama administration warns that Americans and journalists should be skeptical of material coming from James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas. During the White House press briefing, press secretary Josh Earnest warned that Americans and journalists should take Project Veritas videos “not just with a grain of salt but maybe even a whole package of salt.”
“Despite what the name might suggest, these videos have not often revealed the truth,” Earnest said, though he admitted that many Democrats had been forced out of their jobs as a result of O’Keefe’s work.
Robert Creamer, a top Democratic operative featured in the video, stepped down from his position after he admitted in the video that he was actively trying to incite violence at opposing political rallies.
Earnest said that he was “reluctant” to comment on the videos themselves, but talked about the topic of “birddogging” opposing rallies.
In general, Earnest said, the notion of inciting violence in an opposing candidate’s campaign was contrary to Obama’s views of community organizing.
“We shouldn’t have to resort to violence and in fact it is completely inappropriate to resort to violence to advance a political goal,” he said, calling it a principle that President Obama “strongly believed in.”

... inciting violence in an opposing candidate’s campaign was contrary to Obama’s views of community organizing....
Like Hillary, Obama has a public position and a private position on Bird dogging.
It’s fun to watch Democrats squirming when caught with their pants down to their ankles.
“Target locked, commence bombardment”
Right. Bombers are over the target and taking flak. This can only get better.
I take that statement as a direct threat,this is bigger than a micro aggression.
I know that I have posted this here and my FB page, but here we go again...
Do not believe ANYTHING that comes out of 0bama’s mouth and his regime. To include, “and,” “the,” and “it.”
5.56mm
Sure, Earnest, there’s nothing to these videos.
That why one of the slimeballs was fired, and the other slimeball resigned.
I would warn the DNC against election fraud Obama, unless you want to see a ‘deplorable’ uprising on our White House lawn.
But women making unsubstantiated accusations against Trump from many years ago SHOULD be believed?
Sure,Josh——you pathetic tool.
.
Didn’t even get a “Creamer acted stupidly” objection. Instead, denial.
“... press secretary Josh Earnest warned that Americans and journalists should take Project Veritas videos “not just with a grain of salt but maybe even a whole package of salt.”
Anything Josh Earnest (irony ping) says should be taken with a grain of LSD.
Go, Trump, GO!
You surely don’t think *I* believe that tripe, do you?
I posted it to show it’s getting legs if it’s being asked of Earnest.
ROFLOL.....With the almost total blackout of these videos in the MSM, the Obama Administration just told the American people not to go look at them or believe them....what do you do when someone tells you that, especially someone in high authority? YOU GO LOOK! It is why NASCAR is so popular, they go for the car wrecks.
They just advertised these videos to people who would never have known to go look.
Who ya gonna believe???? Obama? or your LYING EYES???
He tries to sound earnest, but we all know he is only joshing!
I love it when people who believe they are our betters tell us what to believe, what to watch, what to read, etc.
There are people who exercise “extreme caution” but it is not the peons.
Corrupt bastards.
Should I believe the administration or my lying eyes?
