Incompetent Barack Obama White House Forced to Scrap, Apologzie for Health Care "Fishy" Claims Email Fiasco (Video)

And these guys think they can run health care for all Americans? Right.

More humiliation for a reeling Obama White House as they are forced to publicly acknowledge that a would-be viral email from Senior Presidential Adviser David Axelrod was spammed to a number of unwitting recipients.




Politico reports:

Following a furor over how the data would be used, the White House has shut down an electronic tip box — flag@whitehouse.gov — that was set up to receive information on “fishy” claims about President Barack Obama’s health plan.


E-mails to that address now bounce back with the message: “The email address you just sent a message to is no longer in service. We are now accepting your feedback about health insurance reform via: http://www.whitehouse.gov/realitycheck.”


The “flag” service was introduced Aug. 4, with a White House blog post saying: “There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. 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.”


White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said at a briefing shortly after the service launched: “We're not collecting names from those e-mails. … [A]ll we're asking people to do is if they're confused about what health care reform is going to mean to them, we're happy to help clear that up for you. Nobody is keeping anybody's names.”


Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tex.), chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, wrote a letter to Obama raising privacy concerns about what the senator called an “Obama monitoring program.”


“I can only imagine the level of justifiable outrage had your predecessor asked Americans to forward emails critical of his policies to the White House,” Cornyn wrote. “So I urge you to cease this program immediately.”

Man Faints During President Obama Speech At FBI, Obama: "This Happened All The Time" (Video)

Watch how Obama non-chalantly plays it off and casually says "this happened during my political campaign all the time..."

The crowd promptly laughs.

A man faints, Obama jokes about it and the sheep laugh. Wow.

"Feel Like Getting Nasty?" White House Gives Reporters Phone Sex Line Instead Of Briefing Call With Hillary

Obama gives Gordon Brown a DVD set which doesn't work and then an IPOD to the Queen. He's also displayed a pretty poor track-record in vetting cabinet nominees.

Hillary famously gave the Russians a "reset" button and now provides journalist with an opportunity for phone sex?

Are these people stupid, insane or blatantly incompetent! Seriously, does anyone fact check in this Administration?

Fox reports:

Journalists seeking to talk a little foreign policy with high-profile Obama administration officials live from the G20 meetings in London this week were solicited for phone sex instead after ringing up the toll-free number given by the White House.

In a press release, the White House accidentally listed a sex line number for journalists seeking an "on-the-record briefing call with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and National Security Advisor Jim Jones to discuss the NATO summit."

But after dialing, a soft-voiced female recording that was clearly not Clinton asked for a credit card number if you "feel like getting nasty."

After several efforts to make sure that the phone number was correctly dialed, a call to the White House resulted in a corrected press release. "If you are having trouble dialing into the call, please try this number as an alternative," and listed the international line included for reporters abroad to dial.

By this time, the conference call was already under way.

Asked for comment about this mishap, Deputy White House Press Secretary Bill Burton responded: "A corrected phone number on a press release is probably one of the stupider things FOX News has covered lately."

Sorry, Mr. Deputy Press Secretary, but Fox is not simply covering a "corrected phone number."

The network is the only MSM outlet reporting the facts about Team "O".

This Administration is incompetent, arrogant and in over its collective heads.
