I attended the Rally in Washington this past weekend, and I assure you I am not a racist. When I came back and told some family members about my trip… Well, this is how the conversation went.

“Are you a teabagger?,you must be a teabagger?” In which I respond “You must be watching some Rachel Maddow”, “Nope, are you a teabagger? That’s what you are called, right?”

Why? Why bother? And why acknowledge the existence of Rachel and all three of her viewers?

“Are you a teabagger?”

“No, that would be Barney Frank.”

That’s like being kicked out of an outhouse.

I was banned from Democratic Underground yesterday for talking against Obama’s continuation of the Bush administration’s Patriot Act. I was called a racist.

New tagline time.

That's a really nasty thing to say about an outhouse.

I was banned from DU when I pointed out several factual errors with BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE. I did it in a respectful, purely factual, non-accusatory manner.

It’s their little clubhouse and they strictly moderate topics of discussion. If you don’t toe their line they boot you.

No biggie.

Congratulations! You obviously got all the brains in your family. But happily, you can choose your friends.

Oh I got kicked out a week ago, after 3 post and 4 hours LMAO!.........never said anything but fact and man do they hate that!

Just showed my wife who we are dealing with.

I posted under Kakaze42, real close to my handle here, so I'm sure I was researched and banned.

I got banned from DU a while back.

They don’t care much for freedom of expression over there. It’s party line or “firing line” with them.

The only way I’ve ever even been on that site is because it showed up in a google search result. Once I clicked on the result link, it was instantly not worth it.

My sister was banned from DU a couple days ago, too. She can’t figure out why. (She’s a FReeper.)

You know what happens when you assume...

It’s because thoughtcrime is the only crime that really matters. Racism=Goldsteinism.
