House Republicans have launched an online offensive geared to take down the Democratic healthcare reform package. Minority Leader John Boehner announced the Web crusade Tuesday morning, which employs Amplify.com to start a section-by-section dialogue with the American public. As members review the 1,990 page bill and uncover what they believe are harmful provisions, Amplify allows them to clip specific portions and explain what they mean in plain English, according to Nick Schaper, Boehner's new media director.
Additionally, when visitors arrive at healthcaretruth.amplify.com they will be able to easily leave their own comments on any portion, or share the content using Twitter, Facebook, Digg and other popular social tools.
