Reuters reporter Joseph Menn exclusively revealed on Friday that Democratic presidential candidate Beto ORourke belonged to one of the best-known groups of computer hackers as a teenager.
Within minutes, his special report was the most popular story on Reuters.com here and was picked up by other news outlets. But the origin of the story goes back more than two years.
Members of the group, which calls itself Cult of the Dead Cow, protected ORourkes secret for decades, reluctant to compromise the former Texas Congressmans political career.
After more than a year of reporting, Menn persuaded ORourke to talk on the record. In an interview in late 2017, ORourke acknowledged that he was a member of the group, on the understanding that the information would not be made public until after his Senate race against Ted Cruz in November 2018.

Ooooh, a hacker. How dark, edgy, and dangerous
One of the best known hacker groups
Wasnt the goal of hacking to not be caught? Or did I misunderstand the movie hackers?
Did you read any of his kooky writings back then?? :)
He’s an odd duck.
What are you trying to say? Reuters would have held onto the story if they had Cruz writing about running over children. They just didnt want to influence an election. (sarc)
Drunk driving mug shot.................................... Punk rocker.
BETO SLAPPED DOWN BY THE LEFT----Left-wing activists and liberal journalists slammed and mocked Beto ORourke after he told Vanity Fair that he was born to run for president. The left says he "reeks of white male privilege." (Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...
He instagrammed this over the net.
His chief political asset.......he looks like Robert Kennedy.
Here's a lineup of "AMERICA'S MOST UNWANTED."
Reuters is now writing self-congratulatory stories about themselves?
BETO THE (GAG) POET-Betos poem entitled The Song of the Cow, published in 1988
by cDc (Cult of the Dead Cow) communications......a group in which he held membership.
I need a butt-shine, the poem begins and it really all just goes downhill from there:
I need a butt-shine,
Right now
You are holy,
Oh, sacred Cow
I thirst for you,
Provide Milk.
Buff my b***s,
Love the Cow,
Good fortune for those that do.
Love me, breathe my feet,
The Cow has risen.
Wax my a**,
Scrub my b***s.
The Cow has risen,
Provide Milk.
Betos poem, for better or for worse, has been preserved forever
by the Google Wayback Machine as a part of the weirdo groups former website, cultdeadcow.com.
Politico Writer Labels Beto O’Rourke a ‘Semigogue’
Newsbusters ^ | March 16, 2019 | P.J. Gladnick / FR Posted by PJ-Comix
At the very least, the Beto O’Rourke candidacy for president is certain to be the inspiration for a lot of humor. Abe Greenwald of Commentary magazine already labeled him as the Seinfeld candidate and that it is a “Campaign About Nothing, Not that there’s anything wrong with that.” No, nothing wrong with that as long as Beto doesn’t turn into a demagogue. The good news is that Jack Shafer, the Politico senior media writer, assures us that is unlikely. The reason, Shafer asserted on Thursday, is that O’Rourke is probably what he calls a “semigogue” in “The Semigoguery of Beto ORourke.” (Excerpt) Read more at newsbusters.org ...
CONCLUSION He’s a “semigogue” with clean teeth, a Poet, punk rocker, skateboarder, great at hand signals, and his
mug shot indicates he hoists one too many.
Have you read his Cow poetry? Bizarre.
Maybe a disheveled Kennedy. I for one think he may be a serial killer.
Bobby Kennedy tousled my hair when I was 7 Mr. O’Rourke you are no Bobby Kennedy. Actual true story. Dad was walking me out of a store where there was a campaign rally going on in the parking lot and Kennedy walked right by. My dad who was not a fan just laughed.
Membership in the cDc is the most impressive part of his resume.
