White House Encroaching on First Amendment?

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

Yeah a faux pas on the part of a New Media director trying to address people in a manner typically reserved for social networking sites isn't exactly in the same league.

It wasn't the best of ideas to do that, but seriously...

So you don't have a problem with the government asking people to forward emails to them if they think they are "fishy"? It is against the law you know.

Who said that, Gary? Please cite your source.

I did, so I will again. Here:

5 U.S.C. § 552a, United States agencies, including the Executive Office of the President shall, "maintain no record describing how any individual exercises rights guaranteed by the First Amendment unless expressly authorized by statute or by the individual about whom the record is maintained or unless pertinent to and within the scope of an authorized law enforcement activity."

mkay...so can you provide a source that shows the White House intends on violating your constitutional rights?

mkay? That's your response?

Unbelievable.

[Hilarious Clinton 452]

Has anyone actually been blacklisted?

That isn't the point. The idea of the government asking us to spy on each other over political speech is very 1984'ish. Are you OK with this?

Try the koolaid Gary. And all things will appear trivial.

it sure reminds me of nazi germany.

Funny that

It's one thing to be ignorant of Nazi Germany. It's quite another to let that ignorance shine through so very brightly.

you probably won't complain until we had blockleiters and gauleiters.
