Attackwatch.com : Big Brother Obama's Campaign Creates Snitch Website

Cuba has its neighbourhood snitches, now Barack Obama's campaign has created http://www.attackwatch.com/, a website that will allow Obama lovers to report links and comments that are deemed attacks on his fiscal and foreign policy, Israel and jobs, whether true or not.  Oh, and there's a link especially for the GOP. 

Their rationale for creating this:

The smears didn’t end with the 2008 election. President Obama’s opponents are still using false allegations against the President and his record in an attempt to derail the momentum of this movement.

That’s why we’re launching Attack Watch—to provide a hub for the facts and fight back with the truth.

But we can’t do it alone. We need your help to render these attacks ineffective and expose them as the worst kind of politics. There are lots of ways to get involved: join our Attack Wire to stay up to date on the latest from our opponents, help spread the President’s message by signing up to volunteer, or donate to support this site and the campaign as a whole.

Check this news feed for updates in the coming weeks, and be sure to follow @AttackWatch on Twitter for breaking news as it happens.
I find it all rather chilling, and somewhat pathetic. Of course, this is nothing new. Back on his first go-round he established his other snitch-site http://www.fightthesmears.com/.

Misfitpolitics takes a stab at the whole issue in the following video.
