Trig Palin post by DU - Auctioned on Ebay!!!

Democratic Underground ^ | 9/8/08 | kozanne

[rightinthemiddle]

This is already making a rather interesting e-mail.

[whatshotandwhatsnot]

Wouldn’t Ebay be interested in that?

[kozanne]

That was my thought too. Probably captured a real Ebay screen then photoshopped it.

I hope this gets all over the place, I really do. I take great offense to anyone or anything that uses the most innocent/defenseless/weakest among us to promote their own agenda. And if they do this to the living, why should it surprise anyone that people like this support infanticide?

In a way, I hope this wakes up the real backbone of America, people like us. We have got to take our country back from this kind of liberal cesspool thinking. We just have to.

[DogBarkTree]

How about covert violence?

[Carley]

My guess is that thousands of Americans would have gladly adopted the Downs Syndrome baby who survived the abortion in Illinois.

All children are God’s childen, not to be murdered if they aren’t perfect.

[LimaLimaMikeFoxtrot]

I grabbed it as well. With apologies.

[Carley]

The left is damned mad that she didn’t abort her baby.

They would prefer the world not see the loving Palin family.

The msm is even denigrating Piper’s spit comb of her baby brother’s hair.

5. I agree.
I feel sorry for the little guy, having “parents” like those two. He’s even lucky he was even “safely” brought into the world, what with his pregnant mom flying from Texas to Alaska, then driven to their local hospital in Alaska to be delivered.
I do agree they’re racking up sympathy for the little guy, and are trying to make themselves look like wonderful, upstanding parents....but I kinda feel like we’re lowering ourselves to their alreay low standards when we even mention Trigg.
Just my two cents.
That is all.

6. Tasteless, small-minded, and without class.
I understand the point is to make light of the allegation that she’s using her family (especially Trig) as a prop, but putting out rubbish like this is doing something even worst. Stupid and makes you look like a real ass, and by extension — all of DU. Flame away.

8. Disgusting
You should be ashamed of yourself. I doubt even Karl Rove would sink this low. This is the kind of garbage that incites the MSM to revile sites like this. I repeat — this is not funny and it’s in the WORST possible taste.

9. I will never understand why posts like these make the greatest page.
And don’t tell me I can bypass posts I find offensive. The headline was deliberately misleading to pull us in.

10. Nine replies, seven recs
Something is sick and wrong. And I hope no one sends this link to eBay’s lawyers, who would not be amused.

12. Ha!
Ignore the concerned ones, they are humor challenged and really worried that we will manage to lose another “gimme” with their incessant toadying to their corporate masters while alienating their voter base.

13. Pretty disgusting
I’m pretty new here but I really didn’t expect to see something like this. I hope this isn’t the usual tone here.

” How about covert violence” ??

I’m with you Pal, its time to start a fight !!

[LimaLimaMikeFoxtrot]

Oops. So sorry I did not see this grab in the earlier post.

[mware]

If I am not mistaken the creator of ebay was one of the people in the running as McCains VP spot.

Bet she would love to see how the DU'ers put the company logo in disrepute.

Must be worth a couple million if you ask me.

[LimaLimaMikeFoxtrot]

I am furious over this folks. I can only hope that D.U. gets a frikkin sunami-size backlash.

I would use the word "shame" but there is none over there.

[Carley]

Meg Whitman if I am not mistaken.

[mware]

Maybe see should give Meg a headsup on how the DU'ers have caused damage to her company by posting such vile stuff and claiming it was on ebay.

It looks like it was not on ebay, but photoshopped.

You know everyone of us would have been ticked off if we had thought ebay had contanced such a thing on their site.

As I said worth a cool two million at least.

[lionheart 247365]

DU is a moonbat cave .

[2CAVTrooper]

It may not be a real eBay listing, but the fact that the swine used eBay’s banner in his photo-shopped image would probably be enough to get their lawyers riled up as one of the DUmmies stated:

“I hope no one sends this link to eBay’s lawyers, who would not be amused.”

[shankbear]

EXACTLY!!!! The DUwipes would never know what hit them. Some jihad on their site.

[EagleandLiberty]

The PIGS have more ITELLIGANCE then the DUmmy posters!! (It is true, Pigs are very smart and clean, too. They use the mud to cool off!!)

Besides, if Muslims hate pigs - pigs aren't that bad!!

[CitizenM]

I just finished an online help session with an ebay rep. I reported this and below you will see the conversation. Actually this was not a real ebay ad...note there is no item number, so it was hard to figure out who on eBay to contact. But I went the route of doing an online conversation and was assured they would look into this and do what they should. Mainly, obviously to protect themselves, but I am sure they will contact the DU!! And issue some statement for the media in case this makes the news. Here is the link she advised to use to report this again (for verification of our conversation) and I think anyone here who is an eBayer might want to also go to this link and inform eBay of this.

Link to eBay Trust & Safety Dept.

below is my conversation:

Hi...there is a phony ebay ad circulating on the Internet that is totally disgusting. It was done by someone affiliated with a political group. I think eBay might want to alert their lawyers and contact the website that has posted the ad (even if removed) because it was captured and is still circulating. If the media gets this, eBay will be called to respond, so lawyers should be prepared. Here is the link to the ad on the website:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x3922466

As you can see it is disgusting.

4:17:04 PM
I tried to find some place on ebay to write to them about this, but didn't fit any categories as it is a fake ad. So I have contacted you this way.

4:17:07 PM Vonda
Thanks for bringing this to our attention!

4:17:22 PM
You bet. Isn't that horrible???

4:18:08 PM
Are you still there?

4:18:23 PM Vonda
Yes, and we thank you for contacting us about this. To further check and take action on this, in your account, I would like to refer you to our Trust and Safety department which handles specific issues like this. Your report will enable them to take immediate action on this.

4:18:54 PM
Ok I will do that now, but I hope you also can do something quickly. Can you?

Send 4:20:03 PM Vonda
Yes, I will also forward this report. Can you also send your personal report to substantiate my report ?

4:21:06 PM
To the trust and safety dept? As I recall, there needs to be an item number or something...and because this is a phony ad, there is none of course. If I cannot forward a report that way, anything else I can do?

The link that I will provide you will not require for an item number. For your convenience, here's the link to their department http://pages.ebay.com/help/contact_us/_base/result_5_2_7.html

4:21:53 PM Vonda
At the end of that page, Please click on "E-mail Us". You will find that link under the header "Contact Customer Support."

Great. I have copied our conversation and the link. I appreciate your immediate action on this. I am sure eBay will want to get on it right away.

[Bobalu]

I sent it to Malkin...maybe she will mention it.
What kind of sick F*ck would post such a thing? :-(
