Devastating Limits to Senior Care - Astroturf Bastards!
Edited on Wed Jul-29-09 08:03 PM by hootinholler
We need to spread the word about the astroturfing of the health care debate. The group that got my attention is named Patients United Now:
Who Are We?
We are Americans just like you.

The first two sentences of their about page. At the bottom there's this:
Patients United Now is a project of Americans for Prosperity Foundation, which is a nonprofit organized under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.


They set these guys up in June I think. Wait, that's easy enough to find out...
Ah, it was May. Wow, APF owns 288 other domains shame the report is $500.

The main reason I mention it is these guys are on the "scare the seniors" bandwagon.



Hell, with that ad, for all I know they are the mule pulling it.

So what can we do about this crap?
