Even liberals feel the chill of President Obama’s shift of America toward cold-war era Soviet Union and Communist China and their mind and press-control techniques.
The liberals’ Washington Post and its reporter/columnist Dana Milbank, who is no Republican, you betcha, writes up an interesting article 
betraying the staged and carefully-crafted propaganda of the Barack Teleprompter Obama administration. To give you an idea of who Dana Milbank is and how he is no Republican, you betcha, the American Spectator’s Quin Hillyer recently wrote this about him:
Why Does Dana Milbank Have a Job?

It wasn’t enough that the Washington Post gave a daily slot in the news section to Dana Milbank to ply his Maureen Dowd Jr. snark trade, one in which everybody but he is portrayed worthy of contempt but conservatives are worthy of contempt squared combined with moral disapprobation. Now the Post has given Milbank a Sunday column, too, where he often forgets he is supposed to be serious and falls back into snark, but uses the officially “opinion” format (as opposed to the news pages’ “observational” format) to let show to an even greater degree his ideological disgust at all things right of center. …
So it’s something of a surprise to see when a member of Obama’s love club disses him so openly. And something of a welcome relief. And something behind which others in the liberal media should follow, but won’t. Instead, I imagine they’ll castigate him.
Obama’s disregard for media reaches new heights at nuclear summit
By Dana Milbank
Wednesday, April 14, 2010; A02World leaders arriving in Washington for President Obama’s Nuclear Security Summit must have felt for a moment that they had instead been transported to Soviet-era Moscow.
They entered a capital that had become a military encampment, with camo-wearing military police in Humvees and enough Army vehicles to make it look like a May Day parade on New York Avenue, where a bicyclist was killed Monday by a National Guard truck.
In the middle of it all was Obama—occupant of an office once informally known as “leader of the free world”—putting on a clinic for some of the world’s greatest dictators in how to circumvent a free press.
The only part of the summit, other than a post-meeting news conference, that was visible to the public was Obama’s eight-minute opening statement, which ended with the words: “I’m going to ask that we take a few moments to allow the press to exit before our first session.”
Reporters for foreign outlets, admitted for the first time to the White House press pool, got the impression that the vaunted American freedoms are not all they’re cracked up to be…
…Obama’s official schedule for Tuesday would have pleased China’s Central Committee. Excerpts: “The President will attend the Heads of Delegation working lunch. This lunch is closed press. . . . The President will meet with Prime Minster Erdogan of Turkey. This meeting is closed press. . . . The President will attend Plenary Session II of the Nuclear Security Summit. This session is closed press.” …
At least he’s not as dodgy as Al ClimateGate Gore. Or is he?
