Of course, we already know that they're crooks!
I didn't know that the W.H. has to retain all communications received. But I know that on their so-called "transparency" website, they deleted all questions related to Obama's constitutional eligibility to be President and any related to his real birth certificate. These people are censors. And I get blasted for deleting trolls' hostile posts on my own site, even though it's perfectly within my rights to do so? Sheesh! Leftists think I'm so horrible and indecent for not leaving up everything they utter, but they continue to brainlessly, unconditionally worship that guy Obama and his increasingly totalitarian, increasingly anti-Constitutional, increasingly criminal regime despite their practice of completely censoring whatever dissent they possibly can, in addition to demonizing and defaming (and sometimes actually beating them up, with the victims' race as a factor) all Americans who don't agree with the radically extreme, hateful, destructive Obama agenda? (Really, Balbulican! Such a hypocrite you are!).The White House strategy of turning supporters into snitches when they see "fishy" information about the health care debate may run afoul of the law, legal experts say.
"The White House is in bit of a conundrum because of this privacy statute that prohibits the White House from collecting data and storing it on people who disagree with it," Judge Andrew Napolitano, a FOX News analyst, said Friday.
"There's also a statute that requires the White House to retain all communications that it receives. It can't try to rewrite history by pretending it didn't receive anything," he said.
"If the White House deletes anything, it violates one statute. If the White House collects data on the free speech, it violates another statute."
Of course, we also know that Left-wing "Progressives" don't give a damn about the law (or the Constitution, or dissidents' civil rights) when it becomes an inconvenience and a hindrance to the advancement of their extreme agenda.
