Obama retreats on flag@whitehouse.gov and the public option.

ADVERTISEMENTS
1. "Following a furor over how the data would be used, the White House has shut down an electronic tip box ? flag@whitehouse.gov ? that was set up to receive information on 'fishy' claims about President Barack Obama?s health plan."

2. "The 'public option,' a new government insurance program akin to Medicare, has been a central component of Mr. Obama?s agenda for overhauling the health care system, but it has also emerged as a flashpoint for anger and opposition.... For Mr. Obama, giving up on the public plan would have risks and rewards. The reward is that he could punch a hole in Republican arguments that he wants a 'government takeover' of health care and possibly win some Republican votes." (Republican? If the anger was restricted to Republicans, would he care?)
