Re: What about the anti-corporate astroturfers?
I think you're confusing 527 partisan smear-combat with this issue.
This issue isn't about partisan politics, it's about honest discourse and misleading the public.
There are no consumer groups dressing up as incumbents, pretending to foist a point-of-view upon the public that isn't genuine. |

This might actually explain the otherwise apparently demented actions of many present officials. If untrue, it's a brilliant idea, none-the-less, and sounds a bit like an Upright Citizens Brigade sketch.

| Well there is the "Yes-Men": 
»www.theyesmen.org/
They go around posing as WTO reps suggesting slavery be re-instated (among other hijinks), and the industry leaders in the audience applaud. Anything to nudge up that stock price. |
