Bush Administration is 'Astroturfing' ==> from cDc's blogger

"It looks like the Bush Administration is 'astroturfing,' trying to artificially create the appearance of a grassroots movement supporting their policies.
A Google search on the phrase "demonstrating genuine leadership" returns a number of nearly identical letters sent to the editors of various newspapers and publications this month, each one with the name of a different individual attached:
A number of other identical letters dated last October and November can be found by searching for "taking a courageous stand against Saddam":
Apparently the propaganda machine is in full swing."
