Fake Republican, Real Hate: Democrat Tries Moby ‘Racist’ Smear on Rand Paul

Posted on | August 9, 2010 | 18 Comments

moby (n) — An insidious and specialized type of left-wing troll who visits blogs and impersonates a conservative for the purpose of either spreading false rumors intended to sow dissension among conservative voters, or who purposely posts inflammatory and offensive comments for the purpose of discrediting the blog in question. The term is derived from the name of the liberal musician Moby, who famously suggested in February of 2004 that left-wing activists engage in this type of subterfuge . . .

Now watch as “Tyler,” a moby who supports Kentucky Democrat candidate Jack Conway, gets dead-cold busted trying to perpetrate a racism smear against Republican Rand Paul:

Hat tip to Jim Antle at The American Spectator, who links Dave Weigel who — surprise, surprise — is utterly convinced by the Conway campaign’s disavowal of “Tyler.”

    But Left-Wing infiltrators are a myth. Media Matters said so.

    As a Concerned Christian Conservative, I’m concerned by the Paul campaign’s determintation to suppress legitimate political dissent by “outing” “Tyler.”

    I emailed you guys this scoop last night. You could’ve scooped Antle. Do you hate me or what?

    It’s ok if you do, just let me know so I can stop sending you money.

    Actually timb, the Weigel is not the guy who shot the video, identified him or came up with other pictures to confirm his identity. The blogger who did the most reporting is Jay at Jay’s Analysis: http://jaysanalysis.wordpress.com/2010/08/09/democratic-operative-busted-smearing-rand-paul-at-fancy-farm/

    Truly this young man made a terrible mistake, but has anyone ever considered he’s probably just a young college kid that did something stupid. I think we sometimes forget what it was like when we were that age. The kid messed up, and I guarantee he is paying for it dearly.
