Hackers managed to seize the reins of a Tea Party PAC's website this week, replacing existing material with a variety of offensive messages, before it appeared to be taken offline altogether.

According to TechEye.net, users of the popular 4chan community gained access to administrator privileges for the website of the Independence Hall Tea Party PAC at some point on Thursday after guessing the website's password, which was reportedly "p9ssw0rd."

TechEye reports that the website at one point "flashed a vertical row of animated gifs of an animal appearing to rub its genitals, before redirecting to a Facebook user called 'Dillon Tilly.'" According to the New Times Broward-Palm Beach, the hackers also posted racist and anti-semitic messages, as well as child pornography for a period of time.

Beyond the digital vandalism, TechEye also notes that hackers had obtained and released a full list of the PAC's private donors.

3. Bunch

of losers.

4. I don't care for the Tea Party at all, but I think this kind of shit is stupid.

It just confirms their worst expectations. If anything, it consolidates their resolve. I can't imagine an actual progressive doing that kind of shit--it's just offensive.

Gee, hackers know naughty words--aren't they "cool?"

Unimpressive.

6. I'll second that.

What sort of idiots have this much time on their hands? Not "cool" at all.

8. +1

This is childish. I don't want liberals or progressives represented by these people any more than I want them represented by Black Bloc.

[Smilo]

10. We are above this .......... we don't need this stupid stuff..

you are correct it is offensive, but it can also produce much negativity for Obama and other dems.

Knock it off guys --- if you want to support the Pres then do something with style and grace - the stuff that the GOPT don't have and don't know.

9. Smells like a false flag attack

Watch for the blame to be laid on some progressive group like Occupy.

11. OMG that is funny.

And I love the space gorilla pic.

12. So the way they condemn tea party racism

Is to post a bunch of racist and anti-Semitic trash to a Tea Party website?

I fail to see how that exposes the racism of anybody other than the people doing it.

14. Have you ever been to 4chan?

It's utterly steeped in this insulting lingo. Amongst "oldfags" as they call themselves, the language on teh TP hack is understood for what it is - complete bullshit served up precisely to piss people off.

I don't think 4chan really cares if it helps or hurts Obama. There's not much 4chan does care about.

15. Who are those assholes going to sue? They can't even lock down their site

and they are going to find out who did it how? And blaming the Obama campaign, that's classy.

I especially liked the Derp's endorsed for congress.
