Fux news on air just now stating that lieberman website hacked

[emald]

I thought yesterday the lieberman group said they hadn't paid their bills so the site was shut down. Which one is it? Fux is say that "lamont hackers" took down the lieberman site "so bad the staffers can't even use the email". Wasn't a screen pic yesterday revealed that non payment was the reason the site came down? This seems to me to be a direct lie and although fux is not known for the truth at all it would seem that such a blatant lie is way over the top. Can anyone prove the truth here?

Hack your own website and blame it on the other guy

5. MSNBC just reported that Lieberman says HACKED

His site was hacked by his opponents. Seems he has learned a few of Rove's dirty tricks and on election day no less...

10. If anyone on Lamont's side did this he's the dumbest SOB on the planet

Nothing like giving them a talking point to show how low the Lamont people are.

Of course Holy Joe & Co. could have hacked it themselves to make Lamont's team look bad.

11. quote from joe2006

UPDATE ON THE ATTACK ON THE LIEBERMAN CAMPAIGN WEBSITE

STATEMENT FROM SEAN SMITH: "For the past 24 hours the Friends for Joe Lieberman's website and email has been totally disrupted and disabled, we believe that this is the result of a coordinated attack by our political opponents. The campaign has notified the US Attorney and the Connecticut Chief State's Attorney and the campaign will be filing a formal complaint reflecting our concerns. The campaign has also notified the State Attorney General Dick Blumenthal for his review."

"We call on Ned Lamont to make an unqualified statement denouncing this kind of dirty campaign trick and to demand whoever is responsible to cease and desist immediately. Any attempt to suppress voter participation and undermine the voting process on Election Day is deplorable and has no place in our democracy."

12. Where;s the proof it was Lamont's? I think more likely it was Rove?
