It'd be a real shame if all the Teabaggers, and the rest of the far-right government hating crowd, thought that every time this group called, or organized something, or did a fundraiser, that it was really the FBI trying to lock them up. Real shame.As the F.B.I. moved in on a man who allegedly threatened Senator Patty Murray, Democrat of Washington, because of her support for health care legislation, law enforcement agents faced a challenge: they needed to confirm that Charles A. Wilson, the man whose phone number was used to leave menacing messages on her office voicemail, was in fact the man who made the threats.
So they found a convenient way to get Mr. Wilson talking about the issue that seemed to be weighing so heavily on him. Special Agent Cory Cote of the F.B.I. called Mr. Wilson at his home number and, according to the criminal complaint (PDF), disguised himself as a representative of Patients United Now, a group that was ostensibly attempting to have the federal health care reform legislation repealed. Patients United Now is a real organization, part of the Americans for Prosperity Foundation, a conservative, antitax advocacy group, that has actively opposed the legislation and also runs a project called Hands Off My Health Care. The foundation has also been active in publicizing Tea Party events. It advocates for the federal government to return to its Constitutional limits and also seeks to highlight the alarmism around global warming.
