An anonymous reader writes "Wired reports-- Online protests targeting GOP websites could turn out to be more than symbolic during this month's Republican National Convention, possibly blocking a critical communications tool for the party... "We want to bombard (the Republican sites) with so much traffic that nobody can get in," said CrimethInc, a member of the so-called Black Hat Hackers Bloc. It's one of several groups planning to distribute software tools to reload Republican sites over and over again."

Now if you'll excuse me, I'll be over here with my eyepatch, petting my Persian cat and building my GOP approved super death beam to hold all of the world governments hostage to further the shadow government which really pulls all the strings.
Then I will tell John Kerry all my secret plans right before I chop him in half with a laser.

Yes, it's a personal attack (I didn't make it, by the way), but it's easily one of the funniest things I've read in weeks.

Republican is much more rich than the Democrat because they get funded by big enterprise. The fight is not equal at all... money CAN buy votes. So i approve this group of hackers. Every moves against the Bush administration is justified.
