...taken straight from wonkette.com
In their continuing quest to destroy the world, Ron Paul supporters have been stepping up their spamming efforts through the employ of rogue spambots. According to the University of Alabama-Birmingham’s computer forensics research department — which has some project where they read spam messages all day — many of the Paultards’ e-mails are “clearly not coming from Ron Paul’s official campaign, but rather illegitimate spam operations and botnets.”

I love having Taylor run this site. Heaven knows I wouldn't subject myself to Wonkette (and Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews) - but that's why we have Taylor - to wade into the shoulder deep rice-paddies of the Left.
Shall we really start bashing Paultards and get some traffic?
for a while i trolled huffingtonpost and alternet daily but the headlines became too predictable everyday...
If news happened, I could almost dictate to you what their headlines would be... it just got too boring.
At least Matthews can mix it up a bit and get a good ol fashioned duel in there.
Ron Paul Campaign Under Cyber Attack
There has been a recent flurry of news articles that have made the conjecture that the Ron Paul campaign or his supporters are in possession of a botnet and are using it to generate spam emails for the candidate. I have been in the business of computer technology for a long time and have good friends in the IT security business and we have discussed this at length. Cui-bono (who benefits)
I find it far more likely that this botnet spam attack is not the design of the Paul campaign or any of its supporters. It is far more likely that this is the release of a first round of direct cyber attack against the Ron Paul campaign. I base this opinion on the fact that the attack is becoming clearly targeted at the youtube videos of Ron Paul. Youtube links to his videos are beginning to be inserted into the the body of these spam message and as a direct result the video's are being pulled by youtube for violation of their terms of use policy.
This attack method can do far more harm than good for the Ron Paul campaign so I will make a guess that this is the work of those in the NSA using cyber war tactics out of loyalty or possibly under orders to use this stealth attack method to derail the Ron Paul campaign by using the campaign's online strength against them.
I expect that after these attackers have used this method to remove the best google and youtube videos touting the Ron Paul campaign, that the attack method will change and will then go after other key components of the campaign's online strength such as the Web 2.0 communities. These utilities will likely be spammed and the organizations using the applications will be banned from their use.
This is nefarious and demonstrates the kind of tactics that the establishment could use to serve their interest in stopping the advance of Ron Paul and the Revolution for freedom that he is leading as well as his Presidential bid. I can only hope that the Ron Paul online army has some equally talented cyber warriors that can help stop this attack before it is ramped up even further.

Why did you ditch Certified Dungeon Master? Is that like your covert handle? I like TRN better though- Any word from Jace? I may end up calling him. Damn I am still woozy from the news that we made three cents. I hope Cindy doesn't start a balance sheet.
Hey anonymous, don't be a puss and log on incognito... Oh wait its a robot spam!! How clever to undermine the Robotspam story with a robot spam. How clever - How come nobody has accused RonPaul of being one of the Reptilian aliens who supposedly rule world?
Changed it because everyone still refers to me as Taylor and i figured in the rare chance that someone stumbled upon this thing and started putting two and two together they might not know who Taylor is...
dammit he sidestepped our preemptive ban of Ron Paul trolls by posting anonymous...
should have firgure a group of people smart enough to create botnet spams for their own campaign and then deflect the criticism as a veiled attack against their own campaign would be smart enough to get around our Ron Paul supporter restraints
One more coment... i like the idea that someone would go out of their way to frame a candidate's movement that has yet to hit double digits in any of the polls...
what
he hates jews still
right?
