Do the Feds monitor Yahoo! Answers by creating fake user ID's and posting propaganda (with smiley faces)?

I've just been watching some of these posts hitting Yahoo! Answers and all of the IDs and "questions" seem sketchy, plus the avatars are all the same... hmmm?

    The government has better things to do than to foment insurrection and making sure that we have enough "how can I make my penis bigger?" questions around here

    Wow, you were just required to read "1984" weren't you.

    But, if there are any Feds "monitoring", go get my yahoo e-mail follow that up with a knock on my door and I will tell you to kiss my big hairy azz.

    You spend to much time in mommies basement, don't ya?

    No..it's just a Yahoo glitch that keeps the avatar from appearing on some.

    I'm sure the government is not watching our posts. They have better things to do, like spend all of our money.

    Yeah, but they're easy to spot; black suits, square heads, with round eyes and forced smiles. They're all Republicans too.

    I don't know for sure, but I really wouldn't doubt it. I've suspected a couple people, but then I could care less. This is my country and I have the right to say or post whatever I damn well please.

    Loonatics is right too.
