TeamSarah.org, an online community of over 63,000 who admire Sarah Palin and all she stands for, currently is experiencing an attempt at framing the whole community as guilty of unsavory racist behavior. This apparently is part of an overall attempt by the the worst elements of the progressive faction, conduct for which all liberals should be ashamed to be associated, even indirectly.
This was started, for example at DemocracyUnderground (which brags that it intends to turn the word conservative “radioactive”) — well before that unfair and arguably defamatory piece was published in The Huffington Post, an extremist liberal website that evidently does not police its own content for accuracy. It is shocking that the HuffPo dropped any pretense of journalistic standards — like, for instance, simply calling TeamSarah and its proprietor, the Susan B. Anthony List, for a balanced picture, before running a recent attack on TeamSarah.

Today, January 2, people have seen weird posts from individuals who seemed overwhelmingly racist, bigoted, and in general unsavory sorts posing as Palin, and traditionalist values, supporters.
As you well know, the Huffington Post alleged that Team Sarah was racist, bigoted, and hateful. Not so! TeamSarah strives to live up to the high standards of decency and humanity exemplified by Gov. Palin. And we do a good job of it. We moderate posts, guide members, and work intently to keep the standards of the site high. The most unsavory leftist elements are doing something weirdly similar, in cyberspace, to the arson committed against Gov. Palin’s church in Wasilla, Alaska. And trying to set us up to take the blame for their vile actions.

I am a member of TEAM SARAH!
A proud member of TEAM SARAH.
Wasn’t this damn story already posted?
Thanks! I just joined fellow Freepers over at TEAM SARAH!
Ok, I joined up. Having trouble with Java Script though, even though I have it enabled. I’ll have to contact the webmaster I suppose.
I’m glad the trouble-makers got caught. This has been going on for years at any number of sites. The truth is, liberals bore themselves and each other and which is why they go about trouble-making and being uncivil.
Same story, different title.
DemocracyUnderground = mad dogs lost must be in the 57th state of omamaland.
I have to postings: 1) Bill Collier’s announcement at Team Sarah about the big troll take-down (posted previously), and 2) his more detailed article at Red State on the DU infestation (which is this story).
You are being way too kind.
The truth is, many liberals are so filled with hate that they don't know any other way. It's like cancer spreading.
Here’s one of DU’s mods saying that FR is OK for them to “mess” with:

There are some lines we try not cross, and delibertely going into a Forum simply to “mess” w/it is one of those things.
Some places like FR are fine to “mess” with, but this has come to the point where it it is merely cruel; we’re better than that.

Uh, Earth to rasputin1952:
‘Scuse me, but your DUmmies proved that you’re NOT better than that. But keep that denial on. You wear it well.
I saw that! I hope Jim and the mods take note.
Beautiful!
They don't like themselves much and have far too much ego investment to admit that.
isn't she...
BUMP
