Not just an attack, a campaign

Don't know if you've heard about 'ellie light', a 'local' who wrote identical letters to more than 60 papers, and had them published on the editorial pages.

People are now trying to find out who this 'ellie' is, and the trail leads straight to the white house.

That's just the start, though - other correlations have popped up, and it is apparent that there has been a coordinated clandestine propaganda effort going on for months.

More info here, here, and a dozen other places.

This story is pretty big - and you can bet it'll never see the light of day in the 'mainstream media'.

So much for the Supreme Court decision on McCain-Feingold being a disaster.

They don't have any new ideas, so they plagiarize. Sounds likes Goebbels on the march.

Well his wife couldn't even do a help Haiti commercial without a TelePrompTer. That one was funny as she tried sk hard to sound like she cared. Guess that's why she generously donates a whopping 15000 dollars.

Before David Axelrod ran the Obama '08 campaign, he was known in political circles as the "king of AstroTurf". It should be no surprise to see the tactic still in use.

Being surprised by this development is like being Shocked, Shocked! at dead folks voting in Chicago.

Being amused by the ham-fisted way they went about it, and the public humiliation of getting caught, is totally warranted. Thanks for the tall glass of awesome, Barry!
