The increasingly aggressive Democratic National Committee on Friday launched a new “Call ’Em Out” website targeting prominent Republicans for statements they have made about President Barack Obama’s health reform plans.
“Help debunk the outrageous lies and misinformation about health reform,” the site says.
DNC spokesman Hari Sevugan said: “The message to opponents of change who would lie or misrepresent the truth should be clear. We are going to respond forcefully and consistently with the facts, and you will no longer be able to peddle your lies with impunity. Through tools like ‘Call ‘Em Out,’ you will be met with a rain of hellfire from supporters armed with the facts and you will be held to account.”
The website is part of a larger, more aggressive approach taken by the White House through the DNC to push back against smears, distortions and misinformation. It’s taken various forms, including hitting back on Republican Medicare attacks with a TV ad that ran nationally and in 10 targeted members’ districts.
Obama is using the health care issue to kill two birds with one stone. His numbers are in the tank, and health care is getting absolutely no traction. If anything, he is losing ground. His website is a mirror to the “Fight the Smears” website he had during the campaign. It is designed to kill all dissension to his plans, but more importantly, it is designed to smear his competition for 2012. He is using his own lies to fight against the truth.
I think Obama would be a no-show to an after school fight, unless of course, he had a gang of thugs available to do his scrapping for him. I see him more as your run of the mill crybaby tattle-tale. The bratty kid who is always threatening to get his big brother to beat you up while he hides behind his mommy’s skirt.
LOL!! You got it Randy, you have him pegged down to a tea!! that’s how I feel
about this whole administration!! Thanks for commenting again!
I think it is great that they want to debunk the outrageous lies and misinformation about health care reform. The American people need to be made aware that Obama is the one lying and spreading misinformation. The DNC needs to get right on that.
Randy did you look at the website they set up for debunking? They have Tim Pawlenty’s picture and information to have people call his office and bug him to vote for the Health Care. He might have a problem getting all of the Repubs and Demos on that page to call all of the out!! He reminds me of a child that has been called a name and he will see you in the school yard after School. An Alinsky Bullying tactic…
Thanks for the visit my friend
Neo, aren’t these guys in this WH pathetic? What a bunch of Cry Babies!! If you don’t agree with them, and I say them, as there are more than one that is making the decisions in this WH. Can you imagine if GW Bush had put people on a Web site that disagree with him, what they would have done to him? This is just plain silly and vindictive.My Message to the Prezbo is: If you can’t stand Politics and people disagreeingwith you, you should get the
heck out of this business and go back to Community Organizing!!
Thanks Neo for the visit and the comments, this just got on my last nerve!!
“…DNC promises ‘rain of hell fire’…” I don’t know if I should congratulate them for recognizing a Biblical term, or report them to Pelosi as terrorists!! It would be funny if it weren’t so pathetic. Mr. “bipartisan” Obama and his fellow communists seem to think bipartisan means doing it their way or else!
Great post and links Marian! Thanks!
