During a press conference on Tuesday, White House Press Secretary called ‘freedom’ a “buzzword.” He was discussing Obamacare’s effect in lessening work hours because it lowers the hourly threshold an American must work in order to obtain health care.

    It’s not anything but an added choice that they have that allows them more freedom, to use a certain buzzword, more choice.

Freedom isn’t a buzzword. It isn’t something you laugh off. It is something to be taken seriously. If they are willing to laugh at the ‘buzzword’ freedom, this proves that the Obama administration and its microphone Jay Carney don’t take freedom seriously enough.

Orwell would have been proud, and horrified, to see how readily we're adopting Newspeak.

Now I'm REALLY pissed!

This idiot just said that all of us who have fought for our country did it in defense of a BUZZWORD!

FREEDOM is NOT  a buzzword you blithering idiot!

Then again, the Nazis hit this scenario decades ago, with that little sign above the gates of that "camp" they used to run:

My thought precisely.  Depressingly astounding.  "Conceived in Liberty" indeed.

Bastards.

If freedom is a buzzword, so is the word Constitution a "buzzword."

If you asked him about that he would agree!

[[ 'freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose' ]]

Amended version, courtesy of clown Carney:
"Freedom's just another buzzword for nuthin' left to lose...."

How long 'til nuthin' is all we have left ??

Carney is the slimiest and most smug mouthpiece we've seen out of Presidential spokesperson.  The way he lies, considering his past at Time Magazine, should tell every American how far up Obama's ass the media is at this time.
