Rep. Stockman has found evidence that Obamabots are using fake Twitter accounts in a massive anti-gun fraud to convince members of Congress to vote the Obama-way.
The obvious fakes have no followers and follow no one and they only tweet anti-gun.
Bloggers first spotted the blatant and deceitful attempt to sway opinion. The tweets were “created less than 48 hours before a member of Congress was contacted,” blogger Stacy McCain discovered. The tweets also include the “#WeDemandAVote hashtag – which President Obama told gun-control supporters to include in their Twitter messages to Congress.”
This is a scam and the anti-gun campaign is a fraud. It’s the opposite of grass roots. It’s astro-turf.
The White House has been asked to comment but has not.

There were plenty of hat tips to pass around for The Other McCain:

“A huge hat-tip to @DefendWallSt, who spotted the fake Twitter accounts on the #DemandAVote hashtag Saturday. Friends pointed it out to me, so I blogged about it, and apparently someone in Congressman Stockman’s office was actually paying attention.”

Once discovered, the Twitterverse was immediately flooded with messages from Conservatives – effectively highjacking the #WeDemandAVote hashtag and, as they say, a good time was had by all.
