White House Adds New Position to Deal with Unfavorable Online Media<\/span><\/p>\n

1984 by George Orwell<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The White House has named\u00a0Jesse Lee<\/strong> to a new position within its communications department titled\u00a0Director of Progressive Media & Online Response<\/strong>.\u00a0According to The Huffington Post<\/a>, Lee will essentially be responsible for building up\u00a0Obama\u2019s online presence as he prepares for his reelection bid, and squashing any negative stories:<\/p>\n

The post is a new one for this\u00a0White House. Rapid response has usually been outsourced to the\u00a0Democratic National Committee\u00a0(DNC), if not done on an ad-hoc basis by administration officials. And it signals that the White House will be adopting a more aggressive defense of the president and his policies as his re-election campaign gears up.<\/p>\n

Lee has played that role in the past, including writing a\u00a0semi-infamous White House blog post<\/a> that said Fox News’ Glenn Beck was lying about the administration on his show. His new gig comes with its own\u00a0Twitter account<\/a>, precisely for the purposes of disseminating push back<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He continued that God wasn't important, wasn't real, and our parents just used God to impose restrictions on us because they were inadequate to parent effectively. I knew then I was going to be involved in a war and that I would have to be in Jesus Christ's Army. Even then, I knew the United States of America would cease to exist without the vast majority of its citizens voluntarily submitting to the Perfect and Good Laws of the Holy Bible. I am a woman who loves the Lord Jesus Christ. I am tired of seeing our LORD denigrated from the school house to the White House. I search the Internet for items that ought to serve as a warning to Americans and Christians all through America, but the nation seems to be sleeping. Wake up America!
