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.
Is it me, or is asking your citizens to spy upon each other and to report their findings to the government a common practice in totalitarian states?
Isn't this move more in keeping with the behavior of Joseph Stalin and Saddam Hussein than what is expected of an American president?
The White House has decided to monitor the informal communications of its citizens. What exactly does this mean? For example, will blogs like mine, e-mails between family members, Facebook posts, etc. now be tracked by the White House?
Senator John Cornyn (R, TX) has written the President to urge him to terminate this"unprecedented" program.
His letter is a must-read and is posted here.
