Astroturfing Sarah Palin
The little note about YouTube constantly pulling the video is annoying, but it's worth the watch.
To be honest, I was kind of scratching my head through some of this. Of course those who are constantly haranguing Sarah Palin aren't the "independents" the MSM portrays them as. But isn't this what partisans do? You know, engage in partisan politics. It will come as news only to those who are clueless about how "grassroots" campaigns really work.
But it's worth the watch if only to show that these so-called "independent" complaint-filers are nothing of the sort. They are partisans and more: left-wing activists.
The next time one of your buddies tells you that they saw a report on MSNBC last night about an "independent" investigation revealing more ethical lapses by Palin, considered yourself armed for battle.
Now, what I'd really like to see is some more evidence that David "Astroturf" Axelrod was involved in the coordination of this "independent grass roots movement" against Sarah Palin. Something that would color me least surprised man on Earth.
Thanks to Gary.
