http://my.barackobama.com/page/speakout has various calls for writing letters on several topics. Many letters on this site appear verbatim in various publications. Examples:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22In+most+states%2C+companies+are+permitted+to+charge+a+22-year-old+woman+1.5+times+the+premium+of+a+22-year-old+man.%22&filter=0
The google result gives several links with sentences in them that are identical to the astroturf website of Teleprompter Jesus. e.g.: "In most states, companies are permitted to charge a 22-year-old woman 1.5 times the premium of a 22-year-old man."

Well .. several people here at FR have begun sending letters to the Editor using this method and bashing Obama. When the WH realizes that we have figured out their little treachery, they will abandon it.

It’s a mistake to think this is stuping to their level .. what this is, is exposing them and their deceit.

They think we’re stupid and that we would never find out what they were doing. I hope this rattles their cage a litle.

Well .. I know for a fact that several FReepers are using the letter to the Editor forms and sending out propaganda letters against Obama.

Once the WH realizes they’ve been caught in their treachery, they will stop using it.

They thought we were too stupid to figure this out.
