Palin Attacks Continue

By Susan Brinkmann, OCDS Staff Writer With the election more than two months over, liberal activists are continuing to launch personal attacks on Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and her supporters. The latest attacks come in the form of infiltrating a popular pro-Palin website for the purpose of posting bigoted remarks for which the site could then be blamed. Leaders of the Susan B. Anthony List, which hosts the popular www.teamsarah.org website, recently uncovered a plot by liberal internet activists to attack the on-line community.   “Team Sarah recently uncovered a plot by liberal activists to frame our community for harboring hate speech and bigotry,” said Emily Buchanan, Executive Director of the Susan B. Anthony List and Team Sarah Site Administrator.  “Liberal extremists at www.somethingawful.com  concocted a plot to join Team Sarah under false pretenses and intentionally provoke our members by posting incendiary and bigoted remarks that violated our terms of use.”   Susan B. Anthony List President and Team Sarah Co-Founder Marjorie Dannenfelser said in a statement, “Two weeks ago, the Huffington Post published a story criticizing Team Sarah for the supposed racist behavior of its membership – yet had they exercised even the most basic of fact-checking, we could have informed them of the recent escalation in bigoted postings from liberal impostors, not from our bona fide membership.” She added: “Clearly Governor Sarah Palin’s influence has irked the Left.  Here we are months after the election, and liberal extremists are still doing all they can to tear her down.  Fortunately the truth will prevail.  Team Sarah will continue to grow and its membership will continue to advance the values represented by the trailblazing governor.” According to LifeSiteNews.com, the coordinated attack by liberal bloggers was discovered on Jan. 2. Since that time, more than ninety impostors were banned from http://www.teamsarah.org last weekend after bona fide Team Sarah members reported violations to community moderators. Interlopers continue to be banned daily. However, the attackers are not giving up. One of them explained their goal: "What I hope is that the fake posters eventually number the actual posters so it would be impossible to tell who is real and who is fake." After a cease and desist letter was sent by Team Sarah to the site administrator of Something Awful, the offending forum was removed from the website, but new forums have since been posted. The most recent attack was a planned 2:00A.M. mass posting of pornography photos in Team Sarah forums.   Team Sarah is a coalition of women dedicated to advancing the values that Sarah Palin represents in the political process.  Its political networking website, http://www.teamsarah.org, has grown to over 60,000 activists in the last four months. Co-Founders of Team Sarah include Marjorie Dannenfelser, President of the Susan B. Anthony List, and Jane Abraham, the organization’s General Chairman. © All Rights Reserved, Living His Life Abundantly/Women of Grace. http://www.womenofgrace.com
