So, who's up for a coordinated hoax? |
|
Today I thought of a most cunning plan to hoax my FaceBook friends who are really rabid wingers. I'm thinking of posting the following status update, maybe towards the end of April:
"In today's mail: 'Dear Mr. Casavant: The Democratic Party of Texas is pleased to reward you for your dedicated service by offering you a position on the Southern District of Texas Healthcare Cost Limitation Enhancement Council.' Looks like I will need to give up one more Saturday each month."
I figure they just might follow my primrose path -- "Cost Limitation Enhancement?" You mean DEATH PANEL! And only Democrats are going to be on it! Why hasn't anyone reported this on Fox News? This is HUGH!!!1!!
Naturally, it then occurred to me that it would go viral much faster if lots of Democrats posted a similar item as their status update at about the same time. I think if we can all settle on agreed language for the form letter, we could make a lot of FaceBook winger heads explode.
Anyone in?

6. I agree, it has to look like they were all mailed on the same day |
|
So I'm thinking any day between April 30 and May 3 should do it.

7. O.K., I usually eschew social networking and I need to go to bed but |

How about something along the lines of
Deficit Elimination Association of Taxmoney Hazards panel or something along those lines?
Mission: To insure that good taxpayer money is not wasted on long term care for people who have outlived their usefulness to society.
It's late and I'm sure someone here can come up with better wording for D.E.A.T.H. but I think the concept is worth exploring

Edited to change my wife from a he to a she, also, I just spoke to her about it. She's in!
Maybe this could be followed up by some tweets about how the Deficiet Elimination Assc. are talking about starting by examining Republican voter registration rolls.
