  • DU "approved" list of Blue vendors

    Raven Brooks is making his Christmas list, but he is less concerned with what to buy than where to shop. Brooks is one of a small group of frustrated Democrats who met while commiserating online after President Bush defeated Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.). Disenchanted and desperate for a voice, they started BuyBlue.org. The two-week-old Web site lists the political contributions of major companies to encourage people to shop at stores and buy products from businesses that supported Democratic candidates. "If you are a progressive or a liberal, you won't be represented adequately by this administration, or this Congress," Martha...

    Check out the DUmmie response to an obviously satirical news story! Just goes to show that these mouthbreathers will accept any absurdity as gospel as long as you play to their biases! The gist of it: a fake news site put up a joke story about Donna Fiducia of Fox News being fired for giggling every time she said "fair and balanced". The fools on DU are ready to adopt her as their own! http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x2754336 Hilarious!

    ***Actual comments from www.democraticunderground.com:*** "Evidence suggests Iran gassed the Kurds as an act of war, and in any event, the US Government has killed more Iraqis than Saddam's regime ever did." "The US is complicit in the making of Saddam, and...Bush and his corporate fascists have butchered hundreds of thousands of people so that they could secure the fortunes of thier elitist families and friends. There is little difference between the two - oh, except the latter controls the propaganda machine."

    The IDF on Saturday denied a report by the British newspaper The Independent claiming that Israel used uranium-based munitions, including uranium-tipped bunker-buster bombs, during its war against Hizbullah in Lebanon this summer. "The IDF Spokesman's Office wants to make it clear that no munitions containing uranium were used in the war in Lebanon," an IDF spokesman told The Jerusalem Post. According to the report, scientists found two soil samples thrown up by Israeli heavy or guided bombs which showed "elevated radiation signatures." "Scientific evidence gathered from at least two bomb craters in Khiam and At-Tiri, the scene of fierce fighting...

    On my trips to DU, I've read calls for revolution, sedition, and yes, threats. and now Skinner has had a personal visit from the SS! But he will not cooperate in any investigation against those who made threats against the President. Even though he says they were banned last week, Skinner will protect their identities if he can... In all fairness, the SS asked for identifying info without a warrant. But they did ask nicely! Skinner doesn't want to give then any information even with a warrant, which is now in the works. Methinks the great Mucky-muck Skinner will fold...

    In a posting by the #1 idiot (David Allen - AKA Skinner) over at Dark Underworld, he advises his fellow kool-aid drinkers that they have had two inquiries by the Secret Service earlier today. As someone who occasionally strolls by their web site for a few gut-busting laughs, I'm not suprised comments on their site would arouse the attention of the boys in black. Here's a snip from his post to their members...In the five-plus years since Democratic Underground was started, we have had legal issues arise on a fairly regular basis (Not surprising). When that happens, we almost never...

And don't forget that Sean Hannity will be gloating about it.

    MOGADISHU, Somalia Ethiopian troops briefly entered a strategic hilltop town in Somalia Monday alongside government fighters, residents and Islamic militia said, and Somalia's radical Islamic forces declared a holy war against Ethiopia. "I urge all the Somali people to wage holy war against the Ethiopians," said top Islamic leader Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed, wearing combat fatigues and holding aloft an AK47 assault rifle. "We need action rather than words," he told a brief news conference in Mogadishu, the capital his forces hold.

    U.S. Army troops operating at a former Iraqi air base recently made a startling discovery: Russian-made missiles marked with radioactive warning signs. Army bomb disposal troops confirmed using Geiger counters that the missiles are indeed radioactive. The discovery is not, however, considered the long-sought "smoking gun" of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction. The missiles appear to be part of a cache of weapons supplied to Iraq before the 1991 Gulf War. The Russian-made R-60, NATO code name AA-8 Aphid, air-to-air missiles are part of a huge stockpile of former Iraqi Air Force munitions uncovered in over a dozen concrete bunkers....

His name has not yet been released. The man will be arraigned this morning on charges related to the shooting. Two other men are in custody, but are thought to be witnesses to the shooting. A 19-year-old woman, who is said to be an associate of the suspect, was arrested on a conspiracy charge stemming from an incident at a dance earlier in night.
  • ZOT! Liberals are Planning to Hack Voting Machines

    Some professors at Princeton University have posted a video on YouTube showing how to hack into the Diebold voting machines that are supposed to be used in 40% of the elections this fall. On Democratic Underground they're talking about how to steal cards just like the voting machines use from Diebold laundry machines used in laundromats, and then reprogram them to change the votes on the voting machines.
