They are asking you to, “Take a digital picture …and upload here. Include a brief description of the date and time the photo was taken and where it was taken, including street address and nearest cross street.”

Now, if I can just be there when they are watering the Capitol lawn…

I sent an email to several Sacramento Bee elites, asking them why they want that information and what they will do with it.  Read my email here.

I will begin with the White House telling Democrats to “Punch harder.”

Jim Messina, deputy Chief of Staff, said, “If you get hit, we will punch back twice as hard.”

Union thugs beat up a protester in Tampa:

Here are two videos showing Union members allowed into a town hall, while average Americans are not allowed in.

Check them out here.

Here is what Obama had to say:

“But I don’t want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess. I don’t mind cleaning up after them, but don’t do a lot of talking.”

Yeah, I’ll bet you…

Yes, it is true, ladies and gentlemen.  37% of people polled rate Obama as a Failure.  That is compared to an August 2001 poll which put Bush at 32%.

51% of those polled feel the Obama Presidency has been a success; 56% for Bush.

Yes, it is true.  Paula Abdul is not coming back to American Idol next season…Oh well…Who cares?

I mean, with all the real problems in the world…like health care, Cap and Trade, Cash for Clunkers, flag@whitehouse.gov, etc. why focus on this…But, of course, CNN will…

Folks, this scares me; a lot.

Apparently there is a lot of “disinformation” regarding the health care system. And apparently, “Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.”

They are asking you to turn in people. Folks, please. Turn me in!

Here is what you can tell them…

Matt Harrington of The Harrington Report thinks the best way to reform health care is:

Tort Reform

Matt Harrington of the Harrington Report thinks that:

• Obama wants to force private insurance companies out of business.

• Obama wants a single payer system.

• Obama means what he said; including wanting to eliminate private health insurance. Nothing was taken out of context.

• The only “misinformation” is coming from the White House.

• People should continue to attend town hall meetings and give their congressmen the what for, even if they are called extremists.

So, folks, if you are reading this, please, listen to our fearless leader, turn me in. Shoot an email over to “flag@whitehouse.gov” and tell them that I am propagating propaganda.

Click above to see my email, turning myself in.

Now, call me crazy for turning myself in…but I want to know what is going on here.

Did anyone flag themselves or someone they know? Let’s hear about it!

UPDATE: Lots of views on this post. I hope you’re all reporting me!

UPDATE: WH press secretary Robert Gibbs, when asked about the flag email and he said, “I cannot understand your question.

UPDATE: August 7, 2009:

Ladies and Gentlemen, the anger is brewing.

Nancy Pelosi accused the protesters of carrying swastikas.

They’re carrying swastikas and symbols like that to a town meeting on healthcare’
Folks, while you report me, please, send a note in reporting Nancy Pelosi too.  No one is carrying any racist, hateful propaganda.

She can’t fight the facts, so she has to try discredit those who oppose her.

Also, Texas Senator John Cornyn accused the Obama White House of compiling an enemies list.

Effectively, that’s what flag@whitehouse.gov is.

Here is the transcript–from Whitehouse.gov, which I think is hilarious–of Robert Gibbs denying flag@whitehouse.gov.

Q    Do you know how many e-mails have been sent to the flag at whitehouse.gov address?  And, secondly, isn’t the White House required by law to save all correspondence it receives, so will it be informing individuals whose e-mails have been forwarded that they might want to have a chance to correct the historical record about the alleged fishiness of their e-mails?MR. GIBBS:  I, for the life of me, didn’t understand your question.

Q    Is the White House required to save the e-mails?

MR. GIBBS:  Obviously, the National Archives documents correspondence with the White House.

Q    So the people whose e-mails have been forwarded, they won’t be informed that their e-mails are being forwarded to the government?

MR. GIBBS:  Maybe I’m missing something.  I’m sure you’re hashing some nefarious plot, but I, for the life of me, can’t understand it.

Yes, sir.

And finally, O-man had this to say, “But I don’t want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess. I don’t mind cleaning up after them, but don’t do a lot of talking.”

UPDATE:  August 10, 2009:

This sort of “community reporting project” is happening in my home city of Sacramento, California.  They are asking folks to report their neighbors for wasting water.

For those that are out of the loop on Sacramento news and politics…apparently, we don’t have a whole lot of water…even though the river which runs behind my house has been pretty high…

UPDATE:  August 12, 2009:

Deputy White House Press Secretary REFUSED to answer Megyn Kelly’s question: “Are you purging the email addresses?”

He absolutely refused to answer the question.

She then showed him up.  Its too bad he’s even worse than Robert Gibbs…

So, I think it is safe to say that they are not going to delete the email addresses.

Bill Burton: “They are wearing swastikas.”

They called you an angry mob. Get your mob-wear right here!

In a little over six months artists have gone from depicting Barack Obama like this:

to this: (after the jump)

Personally, I prefer that latter. According to an article from NewsBusters, posters such as the one above have been mysteriously popping up all over LA. At this point it is still unknown who is behind the posters, but I for one commend the person or persons behind it and would gladly buy them a pint– if I were old enough to partake, that is.

Contribution from the Editor-in-Chief:

Folks, people are calling the above picture “mean-spirited and dangerous.”

But, ladies and gentlemen, it is only mean spirited when it is Barack Obama’s face…It wasn’t when Vanity Fair did the same to Dubya.

Folks, this video includes Barack Obama saying he is for a “single payer system.”  He also says that the government run “public option” will eliminate private insurance.  The video also shows Jan Schakowsky bragging about tearing down the health insurance system–you may remember my post on that earlier this year…

Watch the explosive video here:

UPDATE:  August 4, 2009:

The White House goes to the web to attack the Drudge Report.

Apparently the above video just cherry picked certain statements…but its pretty damning that he said that it will eliminate private insurance…

They’re in damage control here, folks.

Also, I think it is wrong that they are attacking the Drudge Report…calling it “misinformation.”

Oh, and, Happy Birthday, Barry!
