From RFQ NUMBER: WHO-S-09-0003 [link: PDF]

1. Purpose
The purpose of this Statement of Objectives (SOO) is to obtain the necessary services to ensure that content published by the Executive Office of the President (EOP) on publicly-accessible web sites is archived in accordance with the Presidential Records Act (PRA), that information posted on publicly-accessible web sites where the EOP maintains a presence is archived in accordance with the PRA, and that all archived information is securely stored and provided to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) for historical preservation, in accordance with the PRA.

Here’s where it gets juicy.

2. Scope
The contractor shall provide the necessary services to capture, store, extract to approved formats, and transfer content published by EOP on publicly-accessible web sites, along with information posted by non-EOP persons on publicly-accessible web sites where the EOP offices under PRA maintains a presence, throughout the term of the contract.

[...]

Publicly-accessible sites may include, but are not limited to social networking sites.

I suppose that means blogs would be searched, indexed and stored as well. But wait, there’s more! They’re already doing it.

4. Background
In order to comply with the Presidential Records Act, the White House New Media team is looking for a non personal service contractor to crawl and archive PRA content on all third party sites where the EOP has a presence (i.e. Facebook.com/whitehouse, Twitter.com/whitehouse). Currently, the Government team is capturing the data and content both programmatically (via Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) from social networks) and manually (through daily screen shots).

If you look back at Obama’s first days as President, he signed Executive Order 13489 [link: PDF] that states that only the records he chooses to be made public will be released. Now he wants to archive everything anyone has to say about him and his administration.

5. Performance Objectives

(G) Capture of comments and publicly-visible tags posted by users on publicly-accessible websites on which an EOP component subject to the PRA maintains a presence. Vendor must be able to either:

(i) Capture all comments posted to a list of websites provided to vendor; or
(ii) Capture a sample of comments posted to a list of websites provided to vendor, according to a sampling

(J) Ability for government employees to tag captures from publicly-accessible websites by arbitrary fields or tags such as office or issue (i.e. OVP or health care).

There is no requirement in the Presidential Records Act for the storage or archiving of non-EOP content. Obama doesn’t care.

Get ready to be tagged.

Lanny Davis, Attorney and Democratic strategist:

The “shout downs” organized by the Republican right meet one of the classic definition of “fascist” tactics–defined as using shouting and disruption to deprive the civil and respectful debate of ideas. There is literally no defense to these tactics. I don’t criticize those who feel genuine anger or fear and show up to meetings to express those emotions. But I do call out the tactic of screaming and disrupting a meeting and the fact that this is a systematic tactic by thugs who want to prevent civil discourse, not promote it.

Let’s have the media name names, publish photographs, and do interviews of those responsible for approving, even organizing these techniues. And let’s find an investigative journalist – are there many left – to prove these so-called grassroots shouters are, or are not, being paid.

Ironic, eh? Today the left bussed-in a couple hundred members of several unions, including pipefitters and SEIU union members from points as far away as New York State for the Obamassiah’s event in Wakarusa, Indiana. Conservatives came on their own, around 700 of them. Obama’s Secret Service detail also told Wakarusa town manager Tom Roeder, (a republican), his tickets to the event were being revoked.

Even more ironic is President Bush appointed Davis to serve on the five-member Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board back in 2005. I suppose if you’re a conservative in Davis’ book, you have no civil liberties. And we thought all along that civil liberties are supposed to be freedoms that protect you from the government.

I’ll bet Davis can’t wait until all driver’s licenses contain an RFID chip so he can place operatives with RFID readers at tea party protest to gather names of conservative terrorists.

More from Gathering of Eagles.

I was going to post this tomorrow, but now seems appropriate. After the successful rally we had two weeks ago downtown, we are organizing another rally. As senators travel to their home states over the legislative recess to hear from their constituents, Americans for Prosperity’s Patients First Bus Tour hit the road yesterday beginning it’s “Hands Off My Healthcare Tour”.

It will be in Fort Wayne the morning of August 17th. More details will be posted here in the coming week.

Spivack was first contacted about his lease after a letter to the editor appeared in the Charlotte Observer from a snotty college kid named Jennifer Ibanez.

“Free Market Warrior, a kiosk located adjacent to Bass Pro Shops, specializes in memorabilia embellished with pro-confederacy statements as well as those opposing both the government and President Obama. In addition, these products support ideas such as racisms, sexism, and even slavery. While freedom of speech is a Constitutional right it’s difficult not to believe that something just isn’t quite right here.

“I find it appalling that Concord Mills, North Carolina’s #1 visitor attraction, would condone such a message to be portrayed by their vendors and can’t imagine how the outside visitors’ perceptions of North Carolinians have been skewed by such an establishment.

“It’s hard to stay open-minded when such uncivilized and outdated ideas are endorsed on a daily basis. It’s 2009; please, let’s at least try to put this type of bigotry to an end.”

Simon didn’t even extend the courtesy of a phone call, instead sending an e-mail notifying him his lease will be allowed to expire July 31, 2009 without an option to renew. The items they found offensive were shirt and bumper sticker slogans that contained “Impeach Obama”, “Al Qaeda’s two favorite days: 9/11/01 & 11/4/08″ and “My parents chose life, Thanks Mom and Dad!”

Simon and his wife Bren are well known contributors to liberal democrats. Here’s a partial list.

• $1,000,000 donation to the William J. Clinton Foundation http://www.indy.com/posts/simons-gave-to-clinton-foundation
• $100,000 worth of donations by Bren Simon to political candidates including a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton’s presidential bid and contribution to Obama’s inaugural committee.
• $50,0000 donation to Barack Obama’s Inaugural Committee.
• $5,000 donation to National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. PAC
• $5,000 donation to National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. PAC
• $4,600 donation to Hillary Clinton (2007)
• $2,300 donation to Al Franken for Senate (2007)
• $2,300 donation to Friends of Hillary (2008)
• $2,300 donation to Hoosiers for Hill (2007)
• $28,600 donation to Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (2007)
• $25,000 donation to Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (2007)
• $3,000 donation to Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (2008)

What’s more amazing is some of the items sold at the same mall that Simon apparently does not have any objection over. (photo credits: Loren Spivack)

The prime time special — called “Questions for the President: Prescription for America” — will be a nationally televised event during which Obama will answer questions presented by audience members selected by ABC News. The network has refused to accept advocacy ads during the hourlong show.

Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele accused ABC News and anchor Charles Gibson of making Obama’s case for “nationalized” health care “without any opportunity for opposing views to be aired.

Obama has in effect, hijacked the network. Take that, Fox!

In a fundraising e-mail aimed at raising nearly $100,000 to buy air time for a counterprogram, Steele said the RNC’s request to add its views to the debate during the special was “flatly rejected” by ABC News.

“What are the Democrats and their media allies afraid of? The truth?” he asked in a fundraising letter to supporters. “That is outrageous! And we will not take it!”

[...]

Since the president’s inauguration in January, ABC’s “World News” and “Good Morning America” have aired stories that feature Obama or supporters of his health care plan 55 times compared to 18 appearances by critics of his plan, according to a Business & Media Institute (BMI) analysis released Wednesday.

Does that surprise anyone?

Meanwhile, American’s seem to be souring on Obamanomics.
