Funny earlier it was posted that they were tracking it to Chicago. Is the 20 year old going to take the fall?

Given this story, I'm picturing an easy trace back to the idiot kid's fixed IP in his dorm room.

What's more interesting, the IP traces to Chicago.. now, wouldn't it be interesting if the kid was working for Obama at his main HQ there?

Like father, like son?

[dead]

He is SO grounded!

[Luke21]

I remember a couple of louts around here last night saying it had nothing to do with politics or party.

[flyfree]

like what?

[Right Wing Assault]

It was just a joke that went bad.

or

It was a mistake.

If I offended anyone, I’m sorry.

who will now throw his son under the bus

“Ohhhhhh Palin!!! I love you!!! Please be mine!” Can’t you guys see him saying this?

[A_Former_Democrat]

Yup, he looks like a Dorkocrat alright.

[Cementjungle]

Instant hero to all the Dems.

My grandfather didnt raise a fool. He taught me a few things about politics, esp with the Monica Lewinsky thing in the 90s. Even though he is a Dem and he was wrong about defending Clinton, he is wise.

Think about it. Compare this with the timing of Troopergate falling apart. McCain doing well in the polls. Somebody was desperate. That somebody was the Obama campaign.

..and a few of us didn’t buy the attempt to make the 4Channers the scapegoats. Not their style..

[dfwgator]

A Democrat and a Volunteer, the boy already has two strikes against him.

Mike Kernell: Member of Tennessee for Obama?

by Eric Dondero

A Democrat Activist Blog out of Tennessee called LeftwingCracker.blogspot.com may have a connection to the growing scandal over the Hacking of Sarah Palin’s private email account. The Blog lists State Representative Mike Kernell on the side Blog Roll. LeftwingCracker, run by 49-year old Steve Steffens (photo below) of Memphis, is a strong supporter of Barack Obama for President. Steffens lists in his Profile one of his main interests as “leftwing politics.”

I have told you why; just read my posts.

[snarkytart]

I think Kernell is the head of the Obama election group in Tenn..

Yes, but you know this will be played off like, "He was just a college kid doing a prank...on his own." No way will they be able to tie this back to his dad. And in all honestly, he probably did do it on his own, and not because his dad or another dem official asked him to do it. He should still have charges brought against him, though.

“Son, I need you to do something for me, but I need to know that there’s no way you can get caught at it.”

“Sure, Dad. No problem.”

I see a Prep Walk”in the near future for this bumbling Democrat Duo. ;)

David needs about 25 years in the prison now.

I don't think so. He needs to go through the legal process and be treated like any other offender. I do not want to join the Obama camp in the gutter engaging in the "politics of personal destruction".

I am interested in seeing his facebook/myspace stuff.
