THE NEXT BIG THING (liberal Media Matters hiring intern trolls)

Please read about Breitbart's opening salvo against John Podesta and Media Matters.

This is not paranoia. Media Matters, a Soros outfit, is hiring "interns" to come on conservative forums and try to sow division, slow down momentum, forment confusion. And they are better at it than they used to be. They don't curse and swear like liberals on their own forums do.

Some of your buddies may go bye bye.

Le Ping!

Like who for example?

[Las Vegas Ron]

The definition of intern is you don’t get paid.

Yep, all Monica got was that lousy blue dress :)

[ArrogantBustard]

Hope you guys got a nuclear powered ZOT generator ...

The "There is no such thing as moderate Muslims" gang.

Up yours, n00b!

[Red Steel]

The buddies on your side of the eligibility threads Charlie.

Oh, I see.

You figure anyone not buying into the birth certificate stuff should be banned?

Wow. Interesting.

[metmom]

Seen it here.

[Mamzelle]

Yeah, it’s likely to end up unfair to some freepers, I know. But I still think we ought to be alert for John Podesta’s goons. Suggest you read the Breitbart column—it is terrific.

Unfortunately that is about when I joined but I assure you I started reading years before that. :)

[Red Steel]

You are on BuckeyeTx’s troll ping list right? That list is a who’s who list of trolls. Your pals.

[papertyger]

I’ve noticed some obvious trolls using very old accounts here. Are FReepers (or their next of kin) selling access to established accounts?

That's a remarkably conceited thing to say unless you want to define "obvious" as opposed to "doesn't agree with you."

[Mamzelle]

re: I’ve noticed some obvious trolls using very old accounts here. Are FReepers (or their next of kin) selling access to established accounts?)))

Me, too. Always perplexes. But maybe some Freepers have passed on for some reason, and somebody else finds the password? Then, too--Moveon really got going during Bush's first election. For all we know, they could easily be members, or have some backload of memberships and passwords that they could use. One giveaway might be long periods of inactivity.

[little jeremiah]

Hackers can conceivably “re-activate” accounts that haven’t been active in for a long time. Heck, Chinese hackers keep getting source code, and hacking the Pentagon! Getting freepers’ passwords is probably pretty simple.

You nervous or something?

[BykrBayb]

If somebody says that Obama can only win the votes of the reasonable anyway. The unreasonable will cling to the foolishness and probably didn’t vote for him the first time, they are obviously a troll.

[DJ MacWoW]

Quite frankly I think it’s easy to spot the trolls from freepers that disagree on Bam’s eligibility. The trolls live on the threads and seldom post elsewhere.

[humblegunner]

That list is a who’s who list of trolls.

I thought it was a list of folks who think Taitz is a nut.

Does having that opinion make someone a troll?

[DJ MacWoW]

Too bad. You’d be surprised the number of trolls with old signups. One has admitted to being a registered Dem.
