Can anyone watch this, I don’t care who you are, and not come away a little creeped out and dubious that the White House’s motives with it’s snitch website are as pure as they pretend?
“We’re not keeping a list…we’re not keeping a list…we’re not keeping a list….that’s ludicrous! We’re not keeping a list…..did I mention we’re not keeping a list?”
I do believe he doth protest too much.
Here’s the thing I don’t get, and most thinking people don’t get:
Why would it be necessary for the White House to ask American citizens to snitch on other Americans to report what the White House deems “fishy” emails and websites, when the White House has has a press office that should be able to follow what is said in the new media on its own? The whole thing seems fishy to me, and doesn’t make a damn bit of sense.
