Dirty Blog Tricks


Posted Aug 9th 2007 9:49PM by NixGuy Filed under: President 2008, Republicans, Dirty Tricks, Fred Thompson


Captain Ed explains the difference between imwithfred.com and imwithfred2008.com.


Apparently, someone who is on record as a supporter of Move On (dot org) and John Kerry registered the domain name imwithfred2008.com and promptly filled it with links to racist organizations.

Note, just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should, and dirty tricks of this order can be found out easily and just look amateurish.

More here and here. Is the fact that dirty tricks are targeting, not John McCain, not Mitt Romney, not Rudy Giuliani, but a guy who hasn't even announced yet of any significance? I hesitate to read too much into this as it's a datapoint of just one guy, but I do find it interesting that he passed up many more significant targets to zero in on ol' Fred Thompson.

Fred Thompson is in the consciousness of the Democrats, and he scared at least one of them enough to do something stupid and ugly.

Regarding the problem with my blog that some of you are experiencing, I've eliminated every photo, cartoon and embed that could possibly be causing the problem. Shortened every title and line, and nothing new has been added to my sidebar....so, although I can't see the problem on this end, I guess we'll just have to live with it.....
