A Chill Wind

I'm sure you've all heard about this by now.  I've been meaning to say my peace about it all day but have needed some time to wrap my head around it. 

Here is the imaginary argument I hear about this:

Non-Obama-Worshiper: THEY'RE ASKING YOU TO TURN IN YOUR NEIGHBOR IF HE'S AGAINST THE HEALTH CARE PLAN!

Hope'N'Changer:  BUSHITLER WANTED US TO TURN IN SUSPICIOUS PEOPLE AT TRAIN STATIONS AND BY THAT HE CLEARLY MEANT BROWWWWNNNN PEOPPPLLEEEEE  AMERRIKKKAAAAA!!!!!!!

Here's the difference dick-fister.  Terrorism was and is a very real threat and while even I found the color-coded alert system ridiculous I have no problem acknowledging that being a little more vigilant in public places couldn't hurt.  Besides, they've been asking you if you packed your own luggage since long before Bush was in office.

On the other hand, the White House is asking you to inform on fellow citizens if they are promoting information that might prove inconvenient to their political agenda.

Let me repeat that.

THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH OF THE UNITED STATES IS REQUESTING THAT THEIR LOYAL SUPPORTERS FLAG FOR THEM ANY SOURCES OF INFORMATION THAT CONTRADICTS THEM IN THE COURSE OF PUBLIC DEBATE.

I don't know how to make this any clearer.  Exercising your right to free speech and debate is somehow a development that requires notification of the President of the United States.

It is, by far, the most disturbing development I've ever seen in my admittedly short experience with politics. 

Sure, the Obama Administration will claim that they only want information that is "fishy" but it is clear that any information hostile to their agenda would miraculously fit that category.  For fuck's sake, the examples they use in that blog post are directly refuted by current versions of the legislation.  FUCKING CONGRESS WOULD BE FISHY BY THEIR STANDARDS.

Man, fuck this shit.  I'm trying really hard not to get too worked up over here but is this for fucking real?  Ahmafuckmyass is the "elected leader of Iran" or... wait no he isn't.  I didn't say what I just said.  Who are you going to believe, me or your own ears?  Sounds FUCKING FISHY TO ME.

Of course Central American leaders should be President for life.  They support Universal Health Care INITIATIVES!!!!111

Its times like these I'm really glad my team has all the guns.
