Congressman @SteveStockmanUS Exposes
Obama’s Anti-Gun Spambots
Finally, at least one Republican is getting tech-savvy:
President Obama’s
gun
control campaign is a fraud based on fake messages over Twitter.
Rep. Steve Stockman (R-Texas) accused Obama of
trying to make support
for his position look stronger than it really is by flooding Twitter
with messages from people who don’t exist. . . .
Stockman said that in response to Obama’s call for people to tweet
their congressman in support of gun control legislation, he received
just 16 tweets. But he said all of these messages were identical, and
that a closer look at them revealed that only six were from real people.
“The other 10 are fake, computer-generated spambots,” his office said
in a press release. As evidence, he said these 10 tweets use default
graphics and names, and have not engaged in any interaction with other
people. Two of the tweets were sent at nearly the same time, and both
follow just one person: Brad Schenck, Obama’s former digital strategist.
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.
National Review reports that Republican Reps.
Michael Grimm and Adam Kinzinger have also been “flooded” with messages
from the Obama anti-gun spambot campaign.
