Breaking: Right Wing Begins Internet Attacks

Following a coordinated window smashing campaign by angry conservatives following the historic passing of health care reform, the attacks have now moved to cyberspace. Various websites critical of the Tea Parties, Sarah Palin, and the right wing overreaction to health care reform have begun experiencing DDOS attacks by hackers. Sarah Jones, reports: Politicususa has been told we are under DDOS attack. It is not a spammer, it is a deliberate attack. Our server host is diligently working to resolve this issue and if they can determine the origin of the attacker, they will be prosecuted. According to unnamed sources, there have been attacks on at least 4 other progressive websites after stories on Sarah Palin, all which all prefer not to be mentioned, including 2 major ones. The attack on PoliticusUSA, administrated by Jason Easley, is the most extensive attack on a progressive website during this wave however, and the site was still down at publishing time.

Like conservatives worry about left wing sites when RATS own the Lamestream which broadcasts their propaganda. The attacks are probably part of the Obama slander machine.

Conservative sites have been getting attacked for years.

That’s why I don’t feel sorry for the Communist sites. To them I say, “Waah waaaah.”

I doubt this was an attack. Someone probably spilled bong water on the server and shorted it out.

But instead of reporting it that way, they called it an attack by us eeeeevvvvvvviiiilllll conservatives.

More likely explanations:

1. 4chan script kiddies got bored again
2. More than 10 people visited their site, overloading what little bandwidth that they could afford

TRANSLATION: Someone referenced us and posted a link on a very popular open-forum website, and it drew so much traffic to us it overloaded our crappy little servers.

But, we were taught not to let a ‘crisis’ go to waste, so we’re going to make the most out of this while we can.

Anyone that clicks on the link should donate $10 to FR just because they fell for a sucker post.

The whole purpose of this is really just to get you to click on the link, so they get HITS.

The only DENIAL OF SERVICE attack that website got was from the fact no one has been visiting their website.

Nope. Just posted it because I thought it was interesting to see the libs whining about being “attacked” when conservative sites have been dealing with it for years.

Are you going to be so naive every time some left-wing blogger makes a BS claim about big bad conservatives? This whole thing is propaganda and total BS.
