Turning back to that page out of Stalin’s handbook for good citizenship, the Obama campaign has revived its program of asking Americans to inform on fellow citizens when they see someone, some organization, some politician, or some news outlet “attacking” the Obammessiah.
Some of you may recall the black eye that team Obama got when it tried to do this before. Obama’s Attack Watch was heavily lampooned. (See Video Below)
One of the best tools that the East German and Soviet regimes had to keep the average citizen of their oppressive regimes in line was a program that urged citizens to tattle on their neighbors, that taught children to tell on their parents, and expected workers to rat out their co-workers. If someone came to the government informing on a fellow citizen, that citizen was praised and rewarded.
Now, Team Obama has gone all Stalin on us again with yet another such effort, this one called the Obama Truth Team. The new effort sports a page on the Obama-Biden website where you can “Fight Back: Report an Attack.” (See screen shot of page HERE)
There, Team Obama gravely informs its acolytes that they can “report” on anyone not spouting Team Obama’s mantra.
Received a robo-call or an email forward full of falsehoods? Found a misleading leaflet in your mail?
Tell us about it, and help fight back against the attacks on President Obama and his record.
There is also a hand-dandy form you can fill in to inform on whomever you think is not sufficiently sold on America’s Svengali in Chief.
But, Obama has done this now at least four times. Along with today’s new effort, there was Attack Watch, Fight the Smears, and http://Flag.gov. Obama has indulged the tattletale system many times in his short tenure at the White House.
The sad fact is that this whole mien is thoroughly anti-American.
The chief form of free speech that our founding fathers were keen to protect was political speech. They wanted no limits on that speech. Not only that but they wanted a political discourse free of intimidation, too.
So, for Team Obama to urge people to inform on each other over matters political is a disgusting, un-American thing to do. Unfortunately, it seems that such unseemly, un-American attitudes form the basis of the Obama worship we’ve become so inundated with these last eight years.
There are two priceless comments about this article by posters on LP, both of whom post here sometimes.

I'm emailing the Dogeater-In-Chief to inform him that I suspect there might be anti-Kenyan elements hanging out here at LibertyPost.

Dear Mr. Obama,
No need to have someone report me.. I'll stand right up and tell you, you are a POS and are not up to the job to be an American President. You have views that are NOT in line with most Americans. Yes, you fooled the young ones that did not know better, but even they are now seeing what you truly are and rejecting you. If you or any one else has an issue with me, I am NOT hard to find and be forwarded, I do not take kindly to anyone getting in my face and take it as a direct treat to my personhood and will reply in measured deemed needed.

I agree with RF 100%. The Kenyan is a POS and I would tell him to his face given the opportunity. Maybe TC can tell the Dog Eater-in-Chief that it is just possible there are anti-Kenyan, anti dog eating elements on the 4um board too.
