According to the link above, the Director's responsibilities are:
"building up Obama’s online presence as he prepares for his reelection bid, and squashing any negative stories"
What does this mean? It means the president has appointed a minister of misinformation and propaganda. Somebody to lie loudly in defense of the worst president in history and to wield a big intimidating stick while doing so.
Not only does the president want the power to shut down all web traffic 'if need be', he want's to control what is said when he isn't about to shut it down.
Rejoice, this is just another little slice death for free speech and freedom of the press. What a legacy you will leave us, Mr. President.
