Obama's dirty tricks
Update: Obot SMRSTRAUSS'Links Are Being Scrubbed From Google Prior to Presidential Campaign http://jeffersonsrebels.blogspot.com/2010/12/update-obot-smrstrauss-links-are-being.html
Recently I visited the website of attorney Mario Apuzzo, legal council for Charles Kerchner, and noticed that SMRSTRAUSS had posted a comment to an article. Apparently, this Obot couldn't resist plying his trade once again, but Apuzzo's readers are at least aware of who he is and resoundingly rejected his remarks.
During the presidential election, and for a very long time afterwards, SMRSTRAUSS did a lot of damage on behalf of Obama. He, his wife, and probably a host of others using the same name, infiltrated every site that discussed Obama's eligibility issue. This crew left a trail of disinformation everywhere they posted. Their mission: to ridicule all who doubted Obama's eligibility to serve as president, and to confuse the public by misstating the facts.
If you missed the exploits of SMRSTRAUSS, read my exposé published in March 2010 for the full story, backed up with hard evidence. On the date that article was published, a search on Google for this Obot's name registered nearly 20,000 hits, which was very impressive activity by a "single" individual!
One would assume that over time the trajectory of hits for SMRSTRAUSS would climb if he/they continued to post comments, or perhaps level off if they stopped, but exactly the opposite has happened! The trajectory of Google hits for this name has dropped dramatically downward. Information doesn't just disappear from the internet unless someone physically removes the links. SMRSTRAUSS must have friends in high places! But of course, that is the argument I made in the article.
Evidence for the change in Google hits is displayed below. Prior to publishing my exposé on SMRSTRAUSS' activity, I made screen captures of the Google results page on a couple of occasions. On January 29, 2010, Google returned 17,500 links. A short time later on February 8, 2010, Google had incresed the returns to 18,900 links. Today, there are only 4,640 links!
Perhaps SMRSTRAUSS and friends are trying to clean up the Internet before the 2012 presidential election cycle begins, because the link between SMRSTRAUSS and Obama's disinformation campaign might prove useful to Obama's opponents if their dirty tricks are exposed.

Hrm.
Not necessarily buying this. Many forums archive older posts or delete them altogether. So if nearly a year passed, it only makes sense that the number of active links have dropped dramatically.
Has anyone ID’d Obot SMRSTRAUSS yet?

I agree with the post that they were likely archived. On the other hand, it is telling that the SMRSTRAUSS group has either lost interest in defending Obama, or they have adopted a new name or names.
