Cory and CATO sitting in a tree, m-i-s-leading ye?

I just read an article about Cory Bernardi’s role in faux grass roots websites that are against putting a price on carbon – “Bernardi busy behind ‘grassroots’ anti-carbon tax movement“.  It made me wonder if perhaps Cory is also behind CATO, that dubious ‘grass routes’ association of “taxpayers and consumers” who are throwing an online and real-world hissy fit over the current government’s carbon pricing policy.  I posted about them over a month ago.

Update: Daniel Piotrowski of The Punch alerted me to an article he wrote back in August that delves a little deeper into CATA’s origins.
