White House Urges ‘Extreme Caution’ To Viewers of Project Veritas Videos
Breitbart ^ | October 19, 2016 | Charlie Speirling

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.”

Every once in a while I ask myself “ what if I am on the wrong side?” Then I review how easily the left lies and I remind myself who is the father of lies.

“Earnest urged viewers to have “extreme caution” with Project Veritas videos.

they are making a list and referring it to the IRS/FBI/NSA and all their other corrupt agencies.

There is more than just a smidgen of poop in Barry’s pants as this is unfolding, with so many White House visits by these “community organizers” aka THUGS who planned the equivalent of multiple occurrences of “bier haus putsches”.

I just wish it had all come out a month ago. It may be too late.
