Is This The President’s Fake Letter to the Editor
Publius Forum ^ | 01/24/09 | Warner Todd Huston

Posted on 01/24/2010 9:53:06 AM PST by Mobile Vulgus

The Cleveland Plain Dealer newspaper happened upon a curious letter to the editor in support of President Obama that seems to have suddenly popped up in nearly 40 newspapers across the country all at once. Every letter claims to be written by an "Elle Light" and all claim to be from a resident local to the newspaper's audience -- different hometowns used in each case. All are identical whether they've been printed in the Washington Times or the Los Banos Enterprise, a small newspaper in California.

The letter jumps to the support of President Obama saying in part that President Obama never promised that "our problems would wash off in the morning."...

” Presidential astroturf! “

Newspapers must get hundreds of letters to the editors.
What are the odds that this letter would appear in so many different publications without a goose from the White House ?
Somebody is going to have cross check all the letters to the editors from the past two years .
Because Ellie Light or Michelle Dark must have been using this tactic for a long time to promote Barry to the masses.

You are having too much fun for a man of your age. Settle down before your first wife gets wind of what’s going on!

Most certainly do. I am regularly threatened with having all my adult privileges taken away for my occasional misbehavior.

And how are you and yours doing up in the snow country, Young Lady?

Doing well. We’ve just returned from a couple of weeks in FL.

We had a surprise blizzard today. Visibility is currently improving. The wind is blowing hard, causing serious drifting and bitter wind chill temps.

But I am glad to be home (where I don’t have to share a television or a remote control)
