Question for the Beltway Media: Why is OFA, a supposedly non-partisan organization, still tweeting under the name @BarackObama? #tcot

RB (@RBPundit) March 21, 2013Hmm? Funny, that. As Twitchy reported, many are wondering why the @BarackObama Twitter feed is still verified now that it is being run by independent (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) Organizing for Action. We also want to know why a totally “non-partisan” and “independent” organization is using that feed to troll and blame the GOP. The Twitter feed is trolling once again today.
Troller in Chief! –> RT @keder: This tweet brought to you by non-partisanship: twitter.com/BarackObama/st…—

Now with more “FACTS.” Strangely enough, that FACT schtick is one that was used constantly when the account was officially President Obama’s. Curious!
RT if you agree: The Senate GOP should stop trying to tear down environmental progress & pass a clean budget that protects the middle class.—
Barack Obama (@BarackObama) March 21, 2013
FACT: Senate Republicans would end tax credits for clean energy like wind and solar—costing American jobs in an industry we need to lead.—
Barack Obama (@BarackObama) March 21, 2013
FACT: The Senate GOP would block limits on toxic air pollution that will prevent up to 11,000 deaths and nearly 5,000 heart attacks a year.—
Barack Obama (@BarackObama) March 21, 2013
Um.
@BarackObama Please provide a reference for your #fact—

Twitter users swiftly put the FACT nonsense to rest with, you know, actual facts.
FACT: Global warming is the biggest hoax since @BarackObama—

"Fact"?? RT: FACT: The Sen GOP would let polluters build power plants w/o limits on carbon pollution fueling climate change @BarackObama—

@BarackObama We wants jobs, and power plants provide many. Also, the hoax is up, the earths temp goes in cycles. That's a FACT—

@BarackObama Fact: The Democrat controlled Senate hasn't passed a budget in OVER 3 YEARS—

Facts equal lies in OFA-land, just like in Obama-land. Twitter users want to know something else, though: How can OFA troll the GOP using @BarackObama?

How is it that PACs aren't allowed to coordinate with candidates, but the President can tweet from OFA's @BarackObama account?—
Matthew DesOrmeaux (@cynicusprime) March 21, 2013
@BarackObama Why is a "non-partisan" organization like OFA attacking a single political party? This violates your tax exemption.—
Dan (@NorthDallas30) March 21, 2013
Interesting how "non-partisan" Organizing for America still runs @BarackObama's Twitter account. #tcot—
Trent (@Travesham) March 21, 2013
Is that it? OFA (which doesn't even have the name "Obama" in it anymore) can tweet as @BarackObama and still call themselves non-partisan?—
RB (@RBPundit) March 21, 2013
@RBPundit @BarackObama Good….OFA so closely tied to O will end up embarrssing this president yet. Waiting. With popcorn.—

Let's imagine a scenario where a "non-partisan" org tweeted under the name @GeorgeWBush and Bush also tweeted with the same account. #tcot—
RB (@RBPundit) March 21, 2013
BREAKING: Non-partisan PAC tweets using the @GeorgeWBush account, and Bush tweets on it too. #OhWait That's @BarackObama. #tcot #p2—

Surely the media will get right on this. Warning: Don’t hold your breath.
