Hmm? 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.

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.

Um.
@BarackObama Please provide a reference for your #fact

Twitter users swiftly put the FACT nonsense to rest with, you know, actual facts.

@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?
RT @keder: This tweet brought to you by non-partisanship: http://t.co/EUepwx8ved

How is it that PACs aren't allowed to coordinate with candidates, but the President can tweet from OFA's @BarackObama account?

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?
— RBe (@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
— RBe (@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.
