Obama needs a highly placed advisor to coordinate the fight against Right Wing Bullshit

[Nikki Stone1]

Every time the RW comes out with crap, like the birth certificate thing, the little kids singing a song to Obama, the czars, or Sarah Palin's death panels, there needs to be an immediate response from the top of the food chain down. Yeah, these things are bullshit, but people tend to believe bullshit because they can't understand what is actually happening. Obama needs one person to orchestrate the handling of bullshit, 24/7, so he doesn't have to respond to this crap.

1. the right wing noise machine is all they have. unfortunately, the M$M is part and parcel.

they amplify everything originating from the lying liars, and keep the most meaningless stories alive until the next one hatches

2. That's why Obama needs one advisor to coordinate the "whack a mole" response to these things

Anything that remains undebunked remains fodder.

7. Back during the Clinton campaign, didn't Obama have an anti-BS website or something?

I vaguely recall such a thing.

If so, that should have been maintained, and expanded upon.

[Nikki Stone1]

8. It needs to be more than a website. There has to be a central person

Someone with a take-no-prisoners attitude.

9. Or to counteract his highly placed advisor who seems to encourage it

[Baikonour]

10. They were great about calling this shit out during the election.

Not so much anymore.

[Barack_America]

11. I believe that man is named David Axelrod.

[Nikki Stone1]

12. He's got too many other things to do. They need someone dedicated to just RW crap.
