QOTW: Propaganda?

This question was posed by the American Family Association's Facebook page and I thought it was very interesting, the parallels:

"When Rep. John Carter (R-Texas) used the phrase “government-run health care" in an email to describe a proposed plan offered by Democrats that would compete with private insurers, Democrats said he must use the term "public option" instead. Nazi Germany had a Minister of Propaganda to make sure the government was portrayed in a positive light. I say some in Congress are using the same tactics. What do you say?"

Are you following the healthcare debate? why or why not? What do you say concerning the above quote?
