Born again Hitler youth?

Have a gripe about Obamacare? Don't openly talk about it or your name will be reported to the White House. Or is it the Fourth Reich?

This tactic is reminiscent of the Hitler Youth when they spied on their own parents and fellow countrymen and reported them to the Gestapo. Is this Nazi type paranoia reawakening in the USA? Seems so, except that the information gets to the White House at the speed of light:

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 e-mails 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 e-mail or see something on the Web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov

If there is any disinformation, it's coming from the source of the above blog entry. The last I checked these people are exercising their First Amendment rights in that pesky document called the Constitution. The way I see it is that Obama and his cronies don't like the community organizer tactics turned on them. The major exception is that these people are genuinely pissed off and I haven't found one health care insurance company that has hired any of them to rise up against their congressman and state senators.

So, what does the Obama White House do? Well, let's hear it from Dick Durbin:



In my opinion, what this "man" is saying is that these people are insignificant fakes. Sounds like a lack of respect for the American people to me. But, who am I?

According to Kevin McCullough of FoxNews, ACORN members are attending these town hall meetings to publicly berate people who are doing nothing more than asking questions and exercising their right to free speech. Yet, we know the history and current position of ACORN now under investigation for fraud.

When George W. Bush was president and virtually stalked by Cindy Sheehan, did you hear him berating her for doing it? Nope. He was classy about it and stated that's what is great about this country when you can protest a sitting president.

Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas is sending a letter to the Obama administration to cease and desist this tactic or to explain how Americans' privacy will be protected, stating “I am not aware of any precedent for a President asking American citizens to report their fellow citizens to the White House for pure political speech that is deemed ‘fishy’ or otherwise inimical to the White House’s political interests.”

It has been my experience that when people ask others to spy on them and report what they hear or see, they are scared and paranoid.
