the deal is that according to a Missouri news station report, the Obama campaign has asked Missouri law inforcement to target anyone who lies about Obama. They're calling them the Obama Truth Squads.

the video shows a couple of prosecutors who claim to be protecting Missourians from false claims. I guess they feel that they are the final arbiters of the truth. is this what people elect district attorneys and sheriffs, to do?
it offensive and is reminiscient of a police state, trying to intimidate and put a chill on dissenters. use your campaign hacks or phony purveyors of truth like factcheck.org if you want to spread your version of the truth, but to preemptively enlist law enforcement to stifle opposing views! what are we Nazi Germany?
no problem, this is all part of the politics of hope and change.
