They gave her a new HUSH job NO ONE leaves a Presidential job this soon to work for a less important person!

Answer: No, I would say not, he is moving her to his economic team since no one wants that job because they all know his economic policies will fail. The lies continue.

Question: Who else thinks Linda Douglas the communications director for the White House is LYING? Lying on health Care reform... Here is the audio and video and you tell me. VOICE: Hi, I'm Linda Douglas. I'm the communications director for the White House Office of Health Reform. And one of my jobs is to keep track of all the disinformation that's out there about health insurance reform. There are a lot of very deceiving headlines out there such as this one. Take a look at this one. This one says uncovered video. Obama explains how his health care plan will eliminate private insurance. Well, nothing could be farther from the truth. You know, the people who always try to scare people whenever you try to bring them health insurance reform are at it again. And they're taking sentences and phrases out of context and cobbling them together to leave a very false impression. The truth is that the president has been talking to the American people a lot about health insurance reform and what is at stake for them. So what happens is that that because he's talking to the American people so much there are people out there with a computer and a lot of free time and they take a phrase here and there. They simply cherry pick and put it together. And make it sound like he's saying something that he didn't really say. And yet video and audio and text from President Obama, Senior staffers of his (Rahm Emanuel, and Ezekiel Emanuel), Senior Senators (Frank, Durban, ...) state otherwise. The fact that so much of it is linked on YouTube is making it hard to refute. check this video and the others attached on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxE6yQxfa…

Answer: What part of "I am in favor of a single payer system" is taken out of context? What part of "it may take 10, 15 or maybe 20 years" is taken out of context? So what she expects us to believe is the contrived put-together Press conference speech and just ignore the things Obama said in front of a hidden camera at the SEIU conference. PLEASE! They (the people in Washington) truely believe that the American People are idiots. That we can't think for ourselves.

Question: Why did Hillary order her communications director, Howard Wolfson to write negative stories about Obama? The Hillary Clinton campaign yesterday unveiled two new TV ads for the Pennsylvania primary, featuring effusive praise from Gov. Rendell and Mayor Nutter - nothing but positive messages. On the same day, though, her campaign communications director, Howard Wolfson, urged reporters in a conference call to write negative stories about rival Barack Obama, saying that Obama "dissembled, didn't provide the truth, wasn't candid" about an economic adviser's statements to Canadian officials last month. http://www.philly.com/philly/news/politi… Dizy: If you think Hillary didnt know anything about this...then YOU are the one wearing rose colored glasses...

Answer: Great question. The short of it is that Shrillary is a loser and we knew this from the beginning just in how she has allowed her campaign to be so negatively ran. What makes any of us think she will stop now while she still continues to lose in the polls only picking up one new superdelegate yesterday, the first she's gotten in weeks, if not over a month. If we look at Shrill's track record we see it is riddled and plagued with one scandal after the next. It's like this, when we divorce a violent or abusive husband, just because we filed for divorce, do we think "Aha, now I've filed for divorce; now he'll be a better man and come clean"! No, it never works that way. The reason we divorce an abusive, evil spouse is because they are bad news and are not able to conduct themselves in a lawful and upright manner. Just because we file for divorce they're not going to change; they just get worse. Obama is pushing Clinton off the map because he's the best we have going for America and has intelligence and candor, qualities and traits that Shrillary does not and never will have because she's dishonest and slandering in her behavior. She does not play fair and never has. We can expect more disgusting, outrageous, dishonest behavior from Shrills and her camp from here out. She's not going to stop until Obama become president.

Question: Is our nation in trouble now that President-elect Obama appointed Ellen Moran as the Communications Director? U.S. President-elect Barack Hussein Obama on November 22, 2008, appointed a radical pro-abortion feminist, Ellen Moran, as his White House Communications Director. Moran currently serves as executive director of EMILY's List, an organization "dedicated to building a progressive America by electing Democratic pro-choice women to office." Previously, she had served in the Political Department of the liberalist labor union, AFL-CIO, focusing particularly on forcing, through political pressure, the Wal-mart chain to retreat from its conservative stance to accept liberalist policies, such as abortion and homosexuality. EMILY's List (EMILY stands for "Early Money Is Like Yeast" -- it makes the dough rise), was formed in the 1980s to support pro-abortion female radicals for political office. Among those that her efforts supports with millions of U.S. dollars are U.S. Senators Diane Feinstein and Hillary Clinton. The organization discriminates on the candidates that it supports. Men need not apply. Republicans need not apply. Those who do not support unrestricted access to taxpayer-funded abortion-on-demand need not apply.

Answer: Our nation has been in trouble for the past 8 year. I doubt our nation is in anymore trouble based on this. I also doubt she's "pro-abortion" that would indicate she wants everyone to have abortions. It's more likely she's pro-choice.

Question: What should my major be in order to get a job in communications? I'm a junior in high school, and I am trying to chose my major for college.

Can you please help me?!

Answer: You could do a double-major of Communications and Political Science. I think this would be the best option. Or a major in Communications and a minor in Political Science.
