Obama's Attorney General, Eric Holder, has apparently hired a cadre of left-wing, Democrat campaign bloggers to troll through the Internet looking for news stories and blog posts that denigrate the Obama agenda. After such websites are found it is the job of these secret lefty bloggers to leave comments that come to the support of Obamaism in the comments sections. It seems that Eric Holder has created his own little propaganda unit in a valiant effort to become the Bloggi Riefenstahl of the Obama era.
As reported at The Muffled Oar, a blog that first broke the story of Holder's secretive blogging unit -- dubbed the "Blog Squad" by blogger Isaac Muzzey -- Holder has housed this unit in the Office of Public Affairs at the Department of Justice. It also appears that former John Edwards staffer Tracy Russo is part of this special unit.
A site called whorunsgov.com reported back in May that DOJ hired Russo to do "media outreach for the whole department." It is, according to whorunsgov.com, the first time such an effort has been made at DOJ.
Of Russo's duties, The Muffled Oar says:

Yes, it isn’t new. I think that is pretty funny.
They don’t get that it is New Age. A good friend of mine that I have known for 30 years has been sucked into it. I even pointed out the Alice Blakely connection (she started new age stuff and she even wrote in her memoirs about being part of the occult.) Her work was published by Lucifer publishing which later turned into Lucis publishing.
Speaking of that, I should check and see what books they have out there now.

Them eh? Well, your previous post did sound just a little bit like a liberal troll reply. That is, if it weren't dripping with sarcasm.
