OVERVIEW: Time to accept USA for Innovation for what it was - June 9, 2007

The USA for Innovation site went silent on May 9, 2007. The companion site ThaiMyths.com ran from May 7 to May 18 and then went silent as well.

Based on its short history, USA for Innovation is

- an organization with no history before April 2007 (despite a huge directory of press releases, none of these were released to the net on the alleged dates they were created)

- an organization whose web attacks have no precedent in lobbying--except for the lobbying group Edelman which is well-known for creating fake lobbying efforts and planting articles and opinion pieces in the press (more info here).

- an organization that could afford an expensive hired gun like Kenneth Adelman

- an organization that seems satisfied to cease activity on May 18. Thaksin ended his association with Edelman on May 7.
