The Campaign Against Obama's Propaganda War Heats Up
Ranking member Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) and the minority members of the House Oversight and Government Reform and Judiciary Committee continue to hammer the Obama Administration's unlawful use of propaganda using taxpayer funds.
This time, they've created a video hammering the Administration for bullying states into costly spending on roadside signs that promoted the failed stimulus.
The Administration was blasted for their unprecedented and unlawful use of propaganda yesterday in a Congressional report, and Issa had asked that the GAO investigate based upon those findings.
And Roger Simon of the Politico thought he was joking about Obama maybe being a half-term president...
The Obama Administration frequently used federal resources to promote the President’s agenda. In many cases, the Administration relied on the reach and resources of federal agencies and their personnel to promote certain of the President’s favorite programs.
Shocking. The President used the Federal Government to...promote his agenda! This hasn't been news, or even borderline objectionable, since 1798. We elect Presidents for the express purpose of using the government to enact his agenda, to promote his favorite programs. WTF?
BTW, did Issa use government resources to create his report and the video? Both seem to promote his agenda. Again, shocking stuff.
Jim,
My brother-in-law thinks that the earth is only 8000 years old. I can't educate him or point out his illogical position. I run into the same problem with liberals like you. I wish that there was a way to get through to both groups.
Jim, Lemme 'splain ya somethin':
Use of Federal resources to promote an ideological party agenda is illegal. It's also dishonest. In fact, if true it pretty much defines Obama as thieving, lying slime.
Now. If Darrel Issa were also using Federal funds to promote an ideological agenda (he isn't - he's using Federal funds to EXPOSE thieving, lying slime) then he would also be thieving, lying slime.
And - IF Issa turned out to be thieving, lying slime, that would have NO effect on the status of your punk master. Obama is STILL thieving, lying slime, no matter how many other accusations of thieving, lying slime-hood Obama's drooling minions could dream up.
Face it, Jim, the object of your fevered sycophancy is THIEVING, LYING SLIME. (That's in addition to being a traitorous fraud BTW.)
Your turn, bucky. Get it over with and give us the eternal loser's whine: "BUt WhAAT about BuUuUssHHH, you RAaaaciSt!!!"
CFM,
Here's the complete list of all the US Presidents who did not promote an ideological agenda:

Every party is ideological. What do you guys think calling yourself a Conservative or Liberal is except an ideological statement? Every party creates a platform based upon that ideology, and their candidates pledge to do everything they can to enact that platform once in office. A President who didn't promote his agenda would be doing a disservice to the people who voted for him.
Jim,
What part of "illegal" do you not understand? The law was passed in the 1950s - the era when Communist propaganda was rampant. What he's doing is against the law.
Wise up.
Posted by: KSterling at August 18, 2010 09:42 AMCome on, KS, you KNOW that NOTHING a liberal/progressive/socialist/communist(but I keep repeating myself) does is illegal at least to their followers.
As someone once told me, obumble could serve BBQ'ed aborted babies on the white house lawn and people like Jim would be in awe of the president's finding of a new source of cheap protein.
KSterling,
If Obama did something illegal I sincerely hope you and Issa can point it out -- and be specific about the action and the law from the 1950s. I'd also love to hear whether you think things like Medicare are Socialist/Communist and if support of those programs has violated those same laws from the 1950s, or if not, why not.
Instead if you read what Issa wrote (not CYs embellishment) you see something a lot more vague:
The President’s right to sell his policy recommendations to Congress and the public is not disputed; however, using the resources of the federal government to activate a sophisticated propaganda and lobbying campaign is an abuse of office and a betrayal of the President’s pledge to create “an unprecedented level of openness in Government.”
So Obama (in Issa's mind) broke his own pledge (yawn) and wants to make a distinction between the
the President's right to sell his policy recommendations...and
...activating a sophisticated propaganda and lobbying campaign..."whatever that means. You can "sell" but not "activate". OK. Posted by: Jim at August 18, 2010 10:10 AM
