The DUmmies don't look as filthy with those masks on. Maybe that's why they want the masks.

[lOKKI]

At least 65% of the country have no idea who Guy Fawkes is and why someone would wear his mask.
More like 95% woulsn't know --

My guess is that most people will think it's something like a Rocky-Horror Picture Show or Star Trek kind of dress-up fad.... with cheap maskes

Americans(even reasonably educated Americans) have zero idea who Guy Falkes was.

Of course, no doubt a New York Times Reporter will spend 5 or 6 pages trying to explain.

Imagine: At the same time around the country -- say, noon Eastern Time --

Never work.

1. Noon ET is 9:00 AM PT. No libs will be conscious at that hour....
2. In the Eastern Time Zone, most folks will either be in church or waiting for the NFL "Game of the Week" kickoff....
3. Here in the hills, most folks carry guns, and aren't afraid to use them, be it on varmits, or freaks....

Last night's lightning strikes were so frequent and so intense that if they were portrayed via CGI in a movie, folks wouldn't believe it. The blasts were INCREDIBLE and most were less than a mile away.

[kenth]

That's the way it was here. We just hunkered down and prayed we'd make it through without getting the zot. A tree across the road wasn't so lucky, it burned all night. The cows that usually hang around it lucked out though. ;-)

James VI and I didn't think too much of ol' Guy - he issued these instructions to his gaolers:

"If he will not other ways confess, gentler tortures are first to be used unto him and thus by degrees to the extremes. And so God speed your good work."

They eventually worked - Faukes confessed and gave up the names of the other conspirators.

The degree to which he was tortured can be seen in his signature to his confession - it's barely legible.

If this administration were the tyrannical beast the DUmmies claim it is, they would suffer the same fate for showing up anywhere with Guy Faukes masks.

..we are putting the government on notice that we are empowered to take action in the elections in two days...The message, I think, would be clear

Yes, very clear: As per the movie, you are ready to blow up government buildings and federal workers if your "demands" are not met. Why not simply put on hijabs and suicide belts instead?

[Fenris6]

God those masks look stupud & ghey. I hope they do it.

[Fenris6]

"I hate to break it to them, but if they try this at the Seattle Federal Building the only audience they'll get will be the homeless and the cops."

BTW, didn't Seattle pass a law banning demonstrators from concealing their faces via masks? IIRC, it was an attempt to keep the anarchists from stirring up violence?

You could be right. I'll have to check. (Goody, homework!)

[So wear a pair of antennae while explaining the power of the asses.]

Good one, PJ!

[PJ-Comix]

HEY! Did you notice the mention of Jamie Masada and the Laugh Factory in this DUFU edition? Guess who just called me a few minutes ago?---Jamie himself. I hadn't heard from him in at least a couple of years. Anyway, he told me that in addition to the Laugh Factory on Times Square, Hollywood, and Long Beach, that he is planning on opening a Las Vegas Laugh Factory and also one in Atlanta.

[Watery Tart]

GOP partisans such as Chris Matthews

They keep trying to make us into hippies, when the reality of the situation is we represent mainstream America.

LOL! If its any help, it had to do with the WTO protests.

[Dooderbutt]

Any fellow SoFladites esperience that INCREDIBLE thunderstorm last night.

Hey PJ - it wasn't close to us (in Lake Worth), but I sat outside and watched and listened to it. That was AMAZING. So, you were in the thick of it?

[PJ-Comix]

Right in the middle. Most of the lightning strikes were less than a mile away (I counted seconds between flashes and thunder). And they were POWERFUL. There had to be at least one lightning strike per second. Rare was 5 seconds going by without a lightning strike. Absolutely AMAZING! What was it like watching from a distance?

[Elyse]

By that logic our founding fathers were terrorists. Our founding fathers used what England considered terrorist acts (dumping tea in the harbor, for example)

Good grief, these people are totally detached from reality. Dumping tea in a harbor is a terrorist act, but crossing a sovereign border, firing missiles in an unprovoked attack,and murdering and kidnapping people is not a terrorist act.

[Elyse]

I wonder what their thoughts are on how Guy Fawkes day is celebrated in the UK?

I think that makes it all the more hilarious that the Brits will think they are bigger nutters than we will.

[Steel Wolf]

Hippies wearing black Guy Fawkes costumes? Not seeing it, sounds too goth.

Maybe we should try and get them to dress up in tie-dyed Guy Fawkes outfits. Now THAT would be something to see.

[Dooderbutt]

It was beautiful. You could see that there were some strong strikes, and then there was the lightning that fanned out through the clouds. It was one heck of a show, I can tell you that!
