Big sister is watching you, health care propaganda

This is old news to some, but on the official white house blog, Linda Douglass, the communications director for the White House’s Health Reform Office, wants for you to report your neighbors to flag@whitehouse.gov if something they say sounds “fishy” regarding Barack Obama’s health insurance reform. The blog post features a video in which Linda Douglass uses Drudge Report as an example of what is misinformation. The Drudge Report linked to a video in which Barack Obama explains how his health care plan will eliminate private insurance. I’ve seen the video, and Obama clearly states that he happens to be “a proponent of a single payer universal health care plan”. How Linda Douglass thinks that statement could be interpreted in any other way, I’m not sure. Granted, in the video, Obama doesn’t really explain how his health care plan will eliminate private insurance, but he hints that he would like to see private insurance plans be phased out over the next 15 to 20 years and replaced by a single payer plan.
