This is really a great story for internet sleuthing and investigation.

I'm sure someone out there knows far better than I how to investigate this or track down "Ellie Light".

I suspect the author “Ellie Light” live in the DC region and works at 1799 New York Avenue Northwest Washington, DC 20006.

I wonder if Ellie Light knows Gregory Packer?

Read these - go to her homepage

I have an e-mail address for “Ellie Light”.

[MortMan]

Is her middle name Diane?

Then she’d be Ellie D. Light. ;-P

The editors of these newspapers should have verified the writer by phone number if she did not provide it with her comment. I would contact each newspaper editor and request she be confirmed by them.

Why did you attribute this to the blog?

By posting the way you did, you make it appear that the Cleveland paper published your comments, when they apparently didn't.

It's worth posting, but under your own name, not theirs.

I’ve been looking through local papers. So far no luck but I will keep looking.

As for “ellie”, she’s done a fine job of making liberals look like lying clowns one more time.

HillBuzz has some info on this.

Maybe she was hired off of a ad in craigslist for paid progressives to help stop conservatives. 80 to 120 hours a week.

Think about it. All he/she has to do is prove she wrote a letter or posted online for hours and get paid.

[grey_whiskers]

I think her real name is "Haywood Jablome."

Cheers!

Obama has suspicious number of letter-writing fans named 'Ellie Light'

[machogirl]

ellie light has posted on a blog.

http://www.theblogmocracy.com/2010/01/12/chaber-of-commerce-warns-of-double-dip-recession/

she has listed her email address.

I just wrote a letter to the editor for the Mobile paper, and within 2 hours of them receiving the email they emailed back wanting my address and phone number. The next day, the actually called and asked if I’d written the letter. When I said yes, they said it would be published in the next couple of days....now why didn’t these newspapers feel they should verify a Letter to the Editor unless it’s because they were so pro-obambi they just plain didn’t care if they were legit or not!

[purplelobster]

The Ellie Light scandal pretty much encapsulates the Dem. takeover of the Capitol and White House. Barry, Rahm and Axelrod’s policy outlook is only shared by a very tiny percentage of the population. This tiny segment creates millions of fake identities and floods the media with phony testimonials. Seems like half of the callers on CSPAN on the “Republican Line” are Dem supporters who call over and over and preface every call with “I’m a lifelong Republican voter, but “ and then launch into their Ellie Light-style embrace of Barry’s talking points. Wouldn’t be surprised if Ellie Light is not also receiving taxpayer funds via ACORN or some other quasi-Dem satellite for their work on behalf of Barry.

These comments we are reading on this thread will be the talking points we hear over and over from now on. They will be drilled by obama’s people into media until everyone hears it.

Obama can’t work miracles and everyone thought he could. He needs more time. Give him more chances. Vote back in his party so he has a chance to make CHANGE he promised!

Interesting that so many papers printed the letters.

Makes you wonder about some of the trolls on FR.
