DU This Site
Please do this, you might like it. I've been including this in my messages:

I am putting this in all of my posts, I am sorry if it's annoying. If you read this and you want to go to a message board where you can fight with good, red-blooded, total asshole, racist, stupid, neocon fucks, go to bighuskerfan.com/phpBB2/ and argue with the people on the general discussion board. For one thing, they consider du.com a "hate site" and they're also really big on calling people unamerican. I am currently banned for being unamerican. I think you'll really enjoy it. It's free and the people are so stupid it's like shooting ducks in a barrel. You don't have to talk about football, but you can open your horizons and gain an insight into why people vote for people like Bush. I often bring up the stupid things that people post on there up when people ask "Who are the people that are that stupid?"

4. I understand
your hesitation. But I can guarantee you that it is a lot of fun. It's like picking a scab. It's kind of fun to understand your enemies as well. I really do mean enemy. You'll understand if you visit that site.

3. It's kind of you to share, but
I already know why people are supporting Bush: they have no actionable intelligence. ;)

7. No thanks. I am in the process of giving up trying to argue with the
wingnuts on sites like this. It just makes me angry and no one ever changes their mind. YOU can DU one of MY old sites, though, if it amuses you, and engage in endless verbal combat with wingnuts like "SamuelUS" and "Trickshot" and "Megablast" if you wish. Be my guest. Since nothing ever is accomplished, it just succeeds in making me feel angry and wasting my time. I stopped posting on the site below entirely because of this and shifted my time to DU. You can read the responses to the one thread on the torture pics ("WTF?!?! Not as proud to be an American as I used to be") to get an idea of the mentalities involved.

It reminds me of this Star Trek episode from the old show where the two dudes were chasing each other and fighting each other through the ages. Just as futile.

10. That is
some sage advice. I wish I could stop. Some republican read this and went and outed me on that board, so I guess I'll never go back. I suppose I'll have to haunt some other site. That one was too much energy because they were ALL Nazis with the exception of maybe two. It was like living in a gun show.

12. I'm not sure how you could be "outed" there. If you were arguing liberal
or non Republican points anyway, how would it "damage" you to be a DU poster? Do they actually ban your membership on that site for this?

At least on the board I posted I believe there's actually more people against shrubco than for. One thing you will often notice on boards like this is that the wingnuts never feel the need to support any of their blowhard, inherited-through-osmosis right wing talking points with links or other info that supports their position.

14. Well
I've already been banned because I offend people for actually being a liberal and saying what they say about other people to them, so I don't know if they're going to keep me banned for trying to even the playing field. It's possible. Them's vindictive motherfuckers.

welcome to DU.

You really need to stop inciting violence like that -- you may get a nasty gram from the mods.

11. I learned it as "Never mud wrestle with a pig. You get dirty; the pig
likes it."

Used to use this as a USENET signature line. (For which it was VERY appropriate.) My other old fave was:

"I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like Grandpa. Not screaming in terror like the passengers in his car."
