There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.” The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) and the Coalition for Urban Renewal and Education (CURE) have filed suit in...

It started with a series of straightforward questions from Fox News correspondent Major Garrett to White House spokesman Robert Gibbs.  Garrett’s bottom-line inquiry: How did thousands of Americans, who had never contacted the White House previously, receive unsolicited political emails authored by top administration strategist David Axelrod?    In response, Gibbs and his press office colleagues undertook a strategy of dismissing the core issue, impugning the questioner, shifting blame, and vaguely pledging to change White House email policy.  Still, the basic question of exactly how the White House came to possess countless private email addresses remains unanswered.  The public deserves a...

Although the White House has downplayed their ObamaCare opposition "snitch" program and redirected "fishy" claims to their new "Reality Check" site, let's remember that this fiasco has been part of their downfall. This humorous article offers more than three dozen sample email letters to send to the Big Brother's House. Most are hilarious; a couple of them are serious. Part 5and its related predecessor (equally humorous): Part 3

The White House may have thought that the controversy ended this week when it disabled its electronic tip box, but at least one GOP senator is keeping it alive. In a letter to President Barack Obama Wednesday, Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) says the decision to disable the e-tip box -- flag@whitehouse.gov to monitor "fishy" claims about health care -- only raises more questions. Cornyn says he wants the White House to eliminate all the data it received in the 13 days the program was in effect and wants to know whether any information has been shared with the Democratic National...

TO listen to the White House and its supporters in and out of the media, you'd think that opposition to "ObamaCare" is the hobgoblin of a few small minds on the right. Racists, fascists, Neanderthals, the whole "Star Wars" cantina of bogeymen and cranks stand opposed to much-needed reform. Left out of this fairly naked effort to demonize many with the actions of a few is the simple fact that ObamaCare -- however defined -- has been tanking in the polls for weeks. President Obama's handling of health care is unpopular with a majority of Americans and a majority of...

They have theories, mind you. But the theories don’t add up. The White House told FOX News that third-party groups sending online petitions to the official administration Web site could be to blame for a rash of e-mails that have gone out to people who never requested them. The theory is that these groups are including the names and e-mails of members and petition-signers along with the petitions themselves, in turn embedding those e-mails into the White House distribution list… Griffith, who works for the American Association of Christian Schools in Washington, D.C., said she got the e-mail in her...

White House Blames E-Mail Controversy on 'Sinister Conspiracy Theories' After confirming to FOX News over the weekend that third-party groups could be responsible for official White House e-mails that have been sent to people who never signed up for them, President Obama's new media director took to the official White House blog to "clear up" the confusion, and pointed the finger at "outside groups of all political stripes." FOXNews.com Tuesday, August 18, 2009 The White House is blaming the controversy over its Web site and mass e-mails on viral rumors, "fear-mongering" and "sinister conspiracy theories" even as it acknowledges problems...

(CNN just can't help themselves but to emphasize the white guy was shouting anti-Obama things, whereas we just don't have 'good tape' on what that black guy was saying...I'm sure it was impossible for them to get better quality of that interview, i mean they're only a global news organization...Sanchez:"I just can't hear what he's saying, can you?" video at link August 17, 2009 Men tote assault rifles at Obama event Posted: August 17th, 2009 09:03 PM ET At least two men were spotted carrying assault rifles outside Obama's speech.

The White House tactic to control the message on health care reform had critics accusing the Obama administration of playing "Big Brother" and threatening the privacy of average Americans.

A little less than two weeks ago, the Obama administration announced a program asking American's to spy on their neighbors. The call for an army of spies was announced in a White House’s internet site blog: There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see...

The e-mail address set up for people to report "fishy" information about health care reform has become inactive. The White House also has added two new filter devices to its "Contact Us" section on its Web site, following complaints from people who said they were receiving unsolicited e-mails from the administration

"The White House for the first time Sunday somewhat acknowledged that people across the country received unsolicited e-mails last week on health care from the administration, suggesting the problem on third-party groups it claimed placed the recipients' names on the distribution list...." "If an individual received the e-mail because someone else or a group signed them up or forwarded the e-mail, we hope they were not too inconvenienced." http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/08/16/white-house-e-mail/

FOX News' Major Garrett said he has asked the White House four times why people are receiving emails from Obama adviser David Axelrod. Garrett says he has submitted a FOIA (Freedom Of Information Act) request to get an answer.

Anyone who keeps up with the news is fully aware that the Obama administation, Democrat leaders, and the MSM have launched a series of battles against anyone who opposes their leader and/or his policies. Here's a series of related articles that puts these recent absurdities in a humorous light. My favorites are Part 3 and Part 5.

White House Reviews Names of Recipients of Unsolicited E-Mail on Health Care After a testy exchange between FOX News and White House spokesman Robert Gibbs over an e-mail list, the White House says it will review names of recipients who received unsolicited information to determine how they ended up on a distribution list sent out by the East Wing. FOXNews.com Friday, August 14, 2009 The White House on Friday was looking over a list of names submitted by FOX News of people who say they received unsolicited e-mails on health care from the White House, Barack Obama's presidential campaign or...

In an attempt to push back against the "lies and distortions" circulating abotu healthcare, the White House is launching its own chail email to push for healthcare reform. White House senior adviser David Axelrod emailed supporters today, asking them to forward a message touting the benefits of Democratic legislation. Because opponents of reform are launching "viral emails that fly unchecked and under the radar," it's time for Democrats to fight back, Axelrod said. "So let's start a chain email of our own," he wrote. "At the end of my email, you'll find a lot of information about health insurance reform,...
