The Real Astroturfing Is On the Progressive Left

Just in case you didn’t bother to scroll down and look at all the pictures from the Perlmutter health care/Obamacare town hall meeting Saturday, here’s one you really need to see:

This guy is plainly acting as an organizer for the Democrats attending the event, handing out pre-printed fliers for them to wave.

Fliers which have been professionally designed using the 2008 Obama campaign’s typography.

Fliers with a generic message on them that can be used for any similar event: thanking the targeted Congressman for supporting Obamacare and asserting unity of support for the package through the deceptive slogan “Standing Together for Health Insurance Reform”. Which of course implies that the fliers have been created for use across the country by some coordinating organization.

What organization might that be? Well, the fliers themselves bear the URL healthcare.barackobama.com.

Which of course is a subdomain of Organizing for America, the “successor organization to Obama for America”, the 2008 Obama presidential campaign website.

Now…what was it the Democrats and the legacy media have been saying about the center-right grassroots being “astroturf” and being “centrally organized” and funded by out-of-state groups and the like?

Not that any of this should come as a surprise…after all, what is Colorado Democracy Alliance and its many, many tentacles of supposed “grassroots” entities if not a vast plastic savannah of Progressive astroturf?

Michelle Malkin has more astroturfing hypocrisy from the left.
