It only takes about 10 minute of Google to find other examples of Co$ perpetrating this kind of deception:

Dallas News (Oct. 2007): "Bogus Scientology pamphlets irk Dallas mayor" by Rudolph Bush
The booklet, so titled and featuring the writings of Church of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, was sent to the mayor's office complete with the city of Dallas seal and a ringing endorsement purportedly from Mr. Leppert.

The front cover features a painting of a grassy field sweeping toward the Dallas skyline with the city's official "D" symbol hovering in the foreground.

"Presented by Office of the Mayor," it states.

But the booklet didn't come from the mayor, and no one at the city has anything to do with it. [...]

Another fake endorsement in San Francisco: San Francisco Chronicle (Oct, 2007): "Group censured for using Newsom's image in pro-Scientology booklet"

Why would that be? Well for one thing the Co$'s real agendas (like obliterating psychiatry and replacing the field of mental health care with L Ron's Tech) are unpalatable to most people so they have become specialists in mis-representing themselves. But that's not all. It's L Ron's Tech to learn how to lie convincingly and yes Scientologists pay big money for this "communication?!!!!" course:

" TR-L: (Training Routine: Lying)
Training Stress: In Part 1 coach gives command, student originates a falsehood. Coach flunks for out TR 1 or TR 0. In Part 2 coach asks questions of the student on his background or a subject. Student gives untrue data of a plausible sort that the student backs up with further explanatory data upon the coach's further questions. The coach flunks for out TR 0 and TR 1, and for student fumbling on question answers. The student should be coached on a gradient until he/she can lie facily."

Lying was something L Ron was good at and felt was important for the spiritual development of his acolytes:

"THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN CONTROL PEOPLE IS TO LIE TO THEM." — L. Ron Hubbard, "Off the Time Track," lecture of June 195

"The evidence portrays a man who has been virtually a pathological liar when it comes to his history, background and achievements." — Judge Paul G. Breckenridge, Jr. on Hubbard in "Scientology v. Armstrong", 1984.

Now, the Scientologists who patrol these message boards will have successfully completed TR-L, so they will never tell you that they are instructed by a superior what web site to go to and what general comments to make. Terryeo is one. It's Terreo's job to counter negative PR or opinions about the Co$ by posting approved party-line sound bites as if just one of the concerned public. Is this not also a deceptive practice? So what do you think, is it Co$ policy to deceive the public? If you think it might be, ask yourselves why and then go find out.
