Who is debtlimitusa.org?

I'm trying to track down one of those silly RW videos about the national debt. It's sponsored by an outfit that calls itself "debtlimitusa.org?

You've probably seen it. Guy goes to the bank to raise his "debt limit" because he wants to finance a trip to Australia???!? yeah, I know. My sister sent this turd to me in an email. She can be level-headed, just grossly misinformed since she doesn't follow news or politics. At all.

I did a Who Is search, but the form is filled out with "Work Work" It seems like something an astroturf group would do, like Freedom Works or American Crossroads.

Have you heard of or run across debtlimitusa.org? I didn't find any info or reviews on this group. Maybe I'm not doing the right searches. The video was posted last fall around the time of the debt ceiling talks.

edit: I did a DU search to see if they have come up before, but no results on DU.

Here's the video in question:
